"Bed by ten, home by midnight" --An interesting motto I overheard at work last night. I guess its a more honest version of Ben Franklin's famed "early to bed..." saying.

I wonder if the saying was uttered by a promisious man who was using "bed" as a verb in the first part of the phrase.

Yep, I'm quite certain that is the case.

I don't know where else to post this, but I was hanging out with some other people - and as it seems often happens a group of four people happened to cluster together, and all happened to be native Vermonters, two of the other three natives in the room soon gathered in and the following expression was uttered:

"He's flannel on the inside, though"

This in reference to a Flatlander who has the character, though not the lineage, of a Real Vermonner.
