"George, what do you have to add to Christy's comments about your budget proposal?"

George, sweat visible now above his brow, fidgeted in his seat as he panicked at his obvious loss of words. Then a miracle happened; he opened up his mouth and said, "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!"

"That's terrific. Rodger make sure George gets the money he's asking for. Wow, just great George. Christy you could learn from him."

Multiple mispellings refer to the correctly spelled word "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" - a nonsense word uttered by the character, Mary Poppins in the 1964 movie of the same name.

(The movie, Mary Poppins, was based on the book of the same title, written by P L Travers in 1934.)

(lyrics from the song's chorus)
