The Sun is over the yardarm 

The yardarms on a sailing ship are the horizontal timbers or spars mounted on the masts, from which the square sails are hung. (The word yard here is from an old Germanic word for a pointed stick, the source also of our unit of measurement.) At certain times of year it will seem from the deck that the sun has risen far enough up the sky that it is above the topmost yardarm. In summer in the north Atlantic, where the phrase seems to have originated, this would have been at about 11am. This was by custom and rule the time of the first rum issue of the day to officers and men (the officers had their tots neat, the men’s diluted). It seems that officers in sailing ships adopted a custom, even when on shore, of waiting until this time before taking their first alcoholic drink of the day.

Can we have a drink? Yes, the sun is over the yardarm!

Sun is past the yardarm 

It is an old naval term, it means the bar is open. It is late enough in the day to start drinking.

The sun is past the yardarm, it is time for a drink.

short yardage package 

A group of three or more women who weigh more than 250 pounds each. This a reference to American football where lighter offensive players are replaced by heavier ones to push the defense back to gain two or fewer yards. For example, two wide receivers and a slot back are replaced by a much heavier squad of two tight ends and a fullback.

"Did you see the short yardage package at the custard shop? Those three women could push the Raven's defense back six yards!"
"We better get to the all you can eat buffet before the Rushie and her two friends get there. That short yardage package will eat up everything"

Someone who is incompetent with no clue on what they are doing, half-assed. Usually in the motor trade, yet lacks severly in quality.

That bloke is a yarda, he can't even start the car.
The guy who worked on my car is such a yarda.
