Da Vater Code

Mr. Smitty likes to drink his water!

He’s very still when he does it.

I like to watch him do it.

(I’m not sure he likes me to watch.)

So…

When the smitty is drinking his water, we alert each other to the fact

in a coded, impersonal way so as not to disturb the smitty:

“Mister, someone is drinking his water!”

“Mister, someone is!”
