Mike said something to me and ended with what I thought was,"Babe." I said,"Did you just call me "Babe"? (He has never called me that, that I can remember.) I was kind of chuckling. He said,"I said,'Dude.' 'Dave' would have been a little weird." I laughed at that, and said,"I said,'Babe!'"

Apparently we both need hearing aids.
