"Aren't you ever afraid I'll get wet or dirty, Dave?"
"Do we have to discuss this, Myx?"
"Awww! You're trying to be clever: 'do we' and 'dewy' like the grass is."
"I'm the man!" I said with a lot more enthusiasm than I felt.

"I would have, Myx. You know how clever I am!"
"Instead, I'll tell you they're named after the shape of the pointed leaves: dent-de-lion means lion's tooth in old French," Myx said in that tone he uses to lecture me.
"Now who's trying to be clever?"
"Dave, there's a difference between smart and clever. How does that make you feel, Dave?"
"Dandy," I said.
