Doing fair for a square

Definition: A rhythmic, high-integrity response to the greeting "How are you doing?" or "How have you been?" It signifies that the speaker is living an honest, upright life and that "The Creator" or the world is treating them with the same fairness they give to others.
The Philosophy: It identifies the speaker as a "square" (a person of solid character who follows the right path) and confirms that because they do "fair" by everyone, they are receiving "fair" in return. It is a boast of peace, stability, and clean living.
Origin: Coined by Charles Edward Rice II.
Person A: "Hey man, it’s been a while! How you been doing lately?"
Person B: "Can’t complain, brother. I’m doing fair for a square."
Meaning: "I'm staying out of trouble, working hard, and life is treating me right because of it."
