The show also sparked a moment between my late wife and I. I used to call her bean (as in "human bean," from Roald Dahl's The BFG). At some point she started calling me her Bo-berry-biscuit, or just biscuit. Which was fine by me; she loved biscuits and had half a dozen shirts and hoodies from Nashville Biscuit House, one of her favorite places (only outnumbered by her Hooters gear... and her WKU apparel, of course).

One day, she called me "biscuit face" - clearly extending the pet name in an endearing way in her mind. But my mind lept to Red Foxx yelling, "You so ugly, I could stick your face in some dough and make gorilla cookies!" The third time, I had to explain that in no way, shape, or form did I enjoy that term of affection. I had a look or tone I didn't intent, as she was taken aback. I apologized, she apologized, and it was a sweet moment. It's a married couple thing. She understood. She was bean.
