I go through all the Malcolmisms that my Dad has passed onto me througout my life, and try to figure out how they can help me as I take on this new Fatherhood Role myself, or something like that...

20 for 10...
My dad is not your average guy and this expression, almost more than any other, demonstrates this. He has a larger than life attitude- that's what makes this expression so funny, It was conceived as a drink special at the Riverview Arms - which might be equivalent to a Fredericton Atlantis, the elders speak of it, there are many legendary tales that have been reported to have transpired there, and yet all the world sees now is a bunch of really nice oversized houses.
I guess they used to have an special there when you bought a draught, you'd get one free - now your average bear would refer to this as a "2 for 1 deal" not Malcolm - that's a 20 for 10...
It's been a rough week - here's to friends and making it to the weekend, 20 for 10 here I come...

I loved the Arms and miss it! When I first moved to Freddy town, it became a welcoming haunt. I still have my t-shirt from the last night blow out!
