Haha, I like it! My grandfather uses a similar term, but its horrible and racist, so maybe my brain will be able to replace his racist one with your cute one :]
Zoë, do you remember when Jeff and Brian had an old wooden fishing boat which they fixed up in a 'huey duey' way and named it 'Hewy Dewy'. One day we took my dad out for a picnic on the bay. So, just after Jeff told Dad that his share of the boat was 35 dollars, we saw 3 whales swimming with us and one of them went right under the Hewy Dewy. Dad braced himself and assessed the situation, (I'm sure making a mental calculation to check if we were within swimming distance to shore). Then he said to Jeff, 'Think we should go back in....the kids might be getting scared!'
