My mother has said that about my dementia affected father, but she also added, "he randomly squawks and puffs up indignantly, and I really ought to swat your brother for giving him the darn bird call"
More ammunition to use against my husband. That described him quite brilliantly. Does anyone remember Garfield Goose? Garfield is going to be his new pet name. :-)

LOL!
Yeah, that was pretty much my experience too.
Ummm. Goose poo tends to be high in certain nitrogenous products, and rather green. Is hubby on a tummy tube?
After a comment like that, I'd hope he gives her an occasional 'goose nip' or 'honk' at her sometimes.
