And frolicked in the autumn mist in a land called honah lee,
Little jackie paper loved that rascal puff,
And brought him strings and sealing wax and other fancy stuff. oh

While of course I use the BillyMac Pre-Game sheet, I end with a little sing along to keep my partners relaxed before the big games!

PS - Actually, I remembered Spot, and Dick and Jane, but, this is the only "Puff" I could think of!

Actually I think the slang "dude" originated with Baby Boomers and their rock 'n' roll records that they listened to at a higher than required volume.

The Dude abides.

Jeff Bridges was 46 when he played "The Dude" in "The Big Lebowski," and firmly a Baby Boomer.

I'm on the cusp of Baby Boom and Gen X, not even close to Gen Y.
