Well, I figured someone would post this sooner or later...

Grandmother's youngest son, Calvin, will never forget "lumpy dick". When he was in the fourth grade the teacher asked the children what they had for breakfast. Most everyone reported bacon and eggs, or cereal and orange juice. But when it came Calvin's turn he proudly said, "lumpy dick"... there was shocked silence ... then snickers. Calvin felt he needed to explain, so he said, "Yeh, lumpy dick, right Frank? right Dwight, right Pee Wee? You know how we always have lumpy dick at our house!"
