For me personally, GP is an 8 or 9 syllable phrase depending on the day - however - I do have some family members that have always said and will say again in just a few days: y'all do reeeel good at that there robotics competition in Houston. Have yourselves a reeeel good time, ya hear! (They are one of our team sponsors) And, I have been known to tell folks to, 'have a reeeel good time in Atlanta, ya hear!'
