"If you have to request assistance/advice from a store/office-employee, you will be obliged to wander all over da place and "search till Doomsday" to find someone who is not presently too occupied to listen to you. Yet once you finally receive your answer, THEN there will be ABSOLUTE MULTITUDES OF PERSONNEL just lounging around and making themselves available, and so you will feel like a total JACKA** for not having simply waited a few more minutes to ask your question, rather than wearing out your feet and legs from running all over da shop to find someone to ask!"
I spent over five minutes scampering up and down the aisles at Wally-World trying to find a "free" employee to ask about the availability of a certain product, but then afterwards, there were several non-busy staffpeople whom I met en-route back to my shopping-cart whom I could have asked just as easily at that point --- talk about a classic case of Murphy's Law of Staff-Availability! :P :P

A fishing-buddy gave me an old storage-battery for powering my trolling-motor, and it lasted almost all da way through a fairly-lengthy journey across a sizeable lake and back; said aged lightning-cube finally ran out of steam a little while before I reached da shore on da return-trip, though, and so I hadda move da boat in da oardinary way for da last ten minutes.

The whoop-of-joy expression of the long-haired 420-friendly counter-culture group from the sixties and seventies. Viva, Woodstock!!!
We know all the songs that the crowd-boys know
'Bout the big corral where the peace-nuts go
We learned 'em all on the radio
Hippie-yi-yo-kai-yay... hippie-yi-yo-kai-yay.

Refers to a static-electricity-prone outhouse-throne, whereby if you move around too much on the seat in an effort to squeeze out all the poop, the friction of your clothing rubbing on the wood/plastic/porcelain may cause a spark that detonates the accumulated methane in the pit underneath you and explosively goes off like a cannon, forcibly ejecting you out through the roof of the outhouse, That's why some outhouses are built so tall, to give you somewhat of a "buffer zone" overhead so that hopefully the force of the blast will be sufficiently dissipated before it propels you very high.
City slicker, looking disgustedly at the super-primitive outhouse at his country-cousin's out-in-the-sticks property: Hey, what's with the mattress duct-taped to the ceiling and the clamshell-hinged roof -panels???
Country cousin: Oh, that's just in case the ejection seat goes off unexpectedly... this wire and wrist-strap is to hopefully dissipate static electricity build-up sufficiently, though... you put it on when you're poopin', and take it ff again when you're done.

A two-faced Fletcher Reede who either secretly "switches sides" --- i.e., he doesn't remain loyal to his client as far as defending or representing him--- or was never really working for him in the first place.
Sometimes it's best to hire legal counsel from outside your immediate area, especially if your case involves politically-inflammatory issues --- there are often too many atturneys around who would not wanna "rock da boat" or offend any of da local judges or other authority-officials by advocating or lobbying for unpopular change.

Some packaged-goods companies who are real penny-pinchers will give you just barely da weight/volume dat they state on the carton, while other firms have a slightly more liberal fillosophy.
