VHS ALERT: BOATERS & ANGLERS

Da wording on a dockside sign dat warns aquatic sportsmen about of a serious bacterial infection of fish caused by throwing videocassettes into the water.

I always find da "VHS ALERT: BOATERS & ANGLERS" signs puzzling, since conceivably most folks who would be venturing out on a lake or river would not even have televisions or VCRs with them, and so there should be little problem of folks tossing their broken/unwanted tapes overboard while they were cruising around in their skiffs and yachts.

hedge fund

Not to be confused with grass money, this term refers to a separate financial account that a homeowner maintains to cover the costs of products/services to keep his shrubbery tidy and healthy.

Burglars tend to target properties with tall/dense shrubbery that they can crouch behind and hide, so you should always keep a healthy hedge fund to ensure that your bushes stay trimmed and transparent.

Goldman sacks

Can refer to either:
(1) What unacceptably-performing OSI folks could expect from Steve Austin's boss Oscar, or
(2) Fabric bags dat said Hebrew head-honcho gave to Steve and/or Jaime for use in their secret-agent endeavors.

Any goods-procurement personnel who passed out inferior-quality CARRYING-SACKS to OSI mission-operatives would likely find themselves on da receiving end of GOLDMAN SACKS!

Hesspionage

Spying and other political crimes committed by the infamous Rudolf.

Hitler's right-hand man certainly wasn't the first --- or last --- top-government-position official to practice prolific stealing and selling of super-sensitive secrets --- lots of modern-day Hesspionage going on all over the world.

Taihealthy

A country in southern Asia where they export lots of fitness/nutritional products dat promote a "robust 'n' rosy-cheeked" status for consumers.

Considering all of da woefully-inferior products dat are exported by TaiWAN, ordering merchandise dat's labeled, "Made in Taihealthy" sounds like a welcome alternative.

nonechucks

Da actual number of wood-chucks dat a woodchuck could chuck in reality.

Maybe a woodchuck could do nonechucks with heavy pieces of firewood, but could he swing two sticks connected by a rope or chain?

I'm not made of money

No, but you've got lots of it in da bank!!

An excellent example of how da saying "I'm not made of money" can be very deceptive (i.e., da speaker is actually "loaded") would be Ethan Couch's infamous "affluenza" defense --- he never claimed dat he or any of his family-members were actually constructed of hundred-dollar bills, but he was still indirectly bragging about how wealthy they were.
