Dapper Dan

An especially well-dressed and well-groomed man. My dad has always been a dapper dan. I used to get made fun of in school because he'd always be dressed in a three-piece suit when he picked me up. My sisters call me Dapper Dan just because I like to make sure my hair is styled perfectly each morning. Elliot, you're looking like quite a Dapper Dan in that top hat!

from Dan to Beersheba

From one extremely remote place to another. The phrase comes from the Bible. "Dan" was the northern boundary of Palestine, while "Beersheba" was its southern border. I am going to take control of all the land here, from Dan to Beersheba, just you watch! I know our family had some land out here at one time, but I can't imagine it was from everything from Dan to Beersheba. We can't allow this billionaire to just waltz in here and lay claim to everything from Dan to Beersheba!
