AHEM is a throat clearing noise. In response to Bob's crack about the wife staying at home eating bon bons. I didn't know how else to spell it. I'm not being cranky at all just raising an eyebrow: also hard to convey in soundless/sightless text.
But I did like your analogy too, though Gary! Although I guess in Bob and Hubs case it's ahimandahim. Sounds like a curried rice dish to me.
Cheers
