Time was when the term implied a definite and reliable closeness. Today, I'm afraid it connotes a great deal less.
That said, you all shoud know that my "loose language" was happily received and acknowledged during my six-night stay at the Bartlett Regional Medical Center in Juneau, Alaska, earlier this month!

Dear Steve?
You went on an Alaskan cruise and ended up in the hospital?
I have told you repeatedly that four martini's is too many.
Seriously now. Are you o.k.? Are you back on campus???
I am not likin' this.
Worriedly,
Gracie
