An oatmeal made by Opal Crankshaft. It is made of oats, corn, and several other grains mixed with fresh violet flowers. It is often served warm, with violet infused milk poured on top. Its delicious at any time, but is mostly eaten for breakfast or supper. So if you're looking for something quick and easy to eat for dinner, try some Opalmeal - it will make an Opal out of you!
Opal: Hey Nelson, I got something good for you tonight! I'm made us some Opalmeal.
Nelson: Opalmeal? What in the world is that? You crazy grandma.
Opal: Oooh, its heaven, sweetie! Just wait till you taste it! Oats and corn and all sorts of other grains, mixed with fresh violets. Here, you want some?
Hec: Opalmeal? Boy do I need some of that! I've been Dragon Walking all day. All that has made me hungry.
Opal: Here, try this. Its sweet. Tons of delicious!
Hec: (he eats some) Wow! That's creamy and sweet. I think everyone should eat this. Hey Nelson, you want some?
Nelson: (he tastes his) You know, she's right! This IS delicious! This isn't just any old oatmeal; this is Dragon food!

An old army uniform that is now hard to wear. Often you can hardly fit into it and it often has to be squeezed shut. The most notable set of Gunny Greens belongs to MSGT/GYSGT Earl Pickles USA USMC Ret. His wife, Opal, can't believe he still has it.
Earl: Uh oh, its almost Veterans Day. I'd better whip out my old Gunny Greens. (laughs)I can't fit into these babies anymore, but I still love to wear them.
Ed: Gunny Greens? You know I've got a set of them, too. Back when the Army and Air Force were all one lump, I wore them. It was sweet!
Ben: (looking shocked) What are you two talking about? I've never heard of Gunny Greens. I never wore those.
Earl: (laughing again) Here, try these on. See what you think. (he hands the uniform to Ben) Its probably not gonna fit you, but you'll love it.
Ben: (squeezes himself into the uniform) Fits great! Can I keep this one?
Earl: Sure! You can keep this one. I've got tons more.
Opal: You are crazy! I can't believe you kept that thing! If the folks at Camp Swampy saw that, they would have a fit. Amos Halftrack would be rolling.
Earl: No, no. I can't part with this. That's my Gunny Greens, there. Who knows, I might get called back into the service someday. Me and that old suit have been through a lot. (salutes) TEN HUT! At ease!

Ben: (scoffs) Listen, Riker, don't do me this way. I need some calamine lotion, fast!
Liv: Ben, have you been in the Cranberry again? I told you you'd get Cranberry Itch if you go out there.
Ben: Yeah, and it's killing me. Scratch it for me, would you?

A milkshake created by Ralph 'The Rocket' Meckler. It is very similar to a Cream of Crankshaft except using mint chocolate chip in place of the rocky road ice cream and keeping the vanilla. M&Ms are also added to represent stars.
Ed: Hey Nelson, you thirtsy? Want a Cream of Crankshaft?
Nelson: I'd rather have another type of milkshake instead. But I'm not sure what kind.
Ralph M: (excited) I got one for you, Nelson. How about a 'Rocketshake'?
Nelson: Wow, Mr. Meckler! What's in that?
Ralph M: Well, it's almost like Grandpa Ed's Cream of Crankshaft, but you use mint chocolate chip instead of rocky road ice cream, there's M&Ms in it. I'll whip you one up real quick.
(Ralph M makes the milkshake)

A game played by cats where they bat at loose strings from sweat pants. Often known to catch owners off guard, especially if swiped in a sensitive area. This game is most often played by Ralph Drabble and his cat, Oogie.
Ralph: (not realizing he's left his pants open) It's a great day for a jog.
Oogie: (pounces and lands on Ralph's crotch) Meow!
Ralph: YEOW! That dang cat! This isn't supposed to be a game of sweat bat.
June: I told you, Ralph, tie those sweatpants shut!
Oogie: (pounces and lands on Ralph's crotch) Meow!
Ralph: YEOW! That dang cat! This isn't supposed to be a game of sweat bat.
June: I told you, Ralph, tie those sweatpants shut!

An exercise program most notably done by Opal Crankshaft. Done in a mirror in order to maintain the 'perky' expression on Opal's face.
Opal: Hey Martha, your face is sagging. You've got to do some perkies!
Martha: What the heck are perkies? I've never heard of that in all my 70 years.
Amos: Ten hut! A little facial PT, huh?
Opal: Yeah, you should try this. You're gonna love it! I do it all the time.
Amos: Might as well. If it's gonna make Martha look good it might make me look good too!

The idea of seeing the world through a dog's eyes. Often from the perspective of a person standing close with the dog near their feet so that only the person's tibia (shin) is seen. This is often seen in Ralph Drabble who has some of the toughest shins in the country.
Ralph: (eating a bag of pretzels) Hey Wally, you want one? (Kneels down so that Wally slams against Ralph's shins when running in)
Wally: Sure, I love seeing you humans' world this way. It's Shinvision. (Runs away tripping on the rug crashing hard into Opal Crankshaft's legs)
Opal: (screaming) Ow! Tender tibia, why do you do that? Wally, that hurt! My shins aren't as hard as Ralph's.
Wally: (barking and talking at same time) Sorry, Miss Opal, I was just trying to get the pretzel from Ralph. I didn't know I was going to bang you.
Opal: (reaches down and starts to massage Wally) Its okay, I understand! We older people, we don't understand shinvision. Its mostly you younger guys.
Ralph: (taking Opal's weights and starts exercising with them) Well, that was a real shin shock!
Opal: Sweet! This is wild. Seeing the world from your shins. Awesome baby!! (gives Ralph a high five and then high paws Wally)
