Fifteen Minutes of Jive

In the future, owing to texting, tweeting and websites such as the Urban Dictionary, everyone and his brother will begin to coin phrases (such as "preemptive karma") and the person of the moment who finds himself atop Fortuna's Wheel of Elocution will be, for an instant, the cat's meow. Fifteen Minutes of Jive refers to such a scribbler's brief moment in the spotlight. As it has always done, language will then move on and the word of the moment will be replaced by yet another - only at a noticeably accelerated pace. This will of course lead to Jive Lag and Jivemire as well as Jivemires and a situation in which what was hip at, say, 9:15, will now be considered boorish by 9:35.
In the twenty-first century, the world did not seek out the cleverness of Oscar Wilde in the embodiment of a single individual, but instead sought to steep itself in a continuous omnipresent wit in which billions of individuals could, if only briefly, communally participate in being the life of the party and experience their clever moment in the sun: their fifteen minutes of jive .

Presidente Por Supuesto

Barak Obama. Literally, President Of Course. A very loose Spanish translation of President Yes We Can. While nowhere close to being an accurate translation, it does convey a sense of that positive can-do attitude of the 44th president of the United States of America and it's fun to say.
If anyone can get single-payer passed it's Presidente Por Supuesto, the 44th president of the United States.

trickle-down economics

The great thing about trickle-down economics is that every time I purchase a new yacht or Humvee it helps out every member of society. Don't see this five course meal and seven hundred dollar bottle of wine as an example of greed and excessive consumption, think of it as a consumer-based economic stimulus package. Now then, what's fifteen percent of three thousand dollars? Or maybe I should only tip ten, the waiter forgot to put THREE lemons in my water!

smack cat

A furry feline friend who enjoys getting the area immediately preceding it's tail whacked much harder than one would imagine enjoyable.
God love him, but Little Marquis was definitely a smack cat, as evidenced by his purring while being given a rather vigorous series of whacks just in front of his tail and then asking for more.
