New York minute

I am Doodlebug, King of the Olde English Bulldogges.

Me: Come on, y’all. Let’s move it along. We should be able to get this done in a New York minute.

Sweetie: What is a New York minute?

Me: Just an expression for a short, quick time. There’s a place called New York and they have a reputation for moving along at a fast pace.

Doodlebug: So do those clocks you humans love with the long stick hands move faster there?

Me: No, actually they don’t.

Sweetie: I’ll stick with moving along in a bulldog minute. It’s more my style.

Doodlebug: Me, too.

MoonCat: Welcome to bulldog time down south.
