Um, You're Welcome?

We were walking the dogs this afternoon, when we ran into a neighbor kid, who then tagged along with us for a while. He's about 10 or 11, and we've probably known him for five years or so.

As we were walking and chatting (He was doing most of the chatting, we were saying, "Really? That's cool!" and such non-things.) he said, "I should probably thank BigGaloot, he's saved me at least two times. I would've missed the bus, if his barking hadn't woken me up!"

I hope the other neighbors are as gracious about it.
