Highly entertaining but “living extremely dangerously” person who loves to blow things up --- without proper preparation or training --- just to hear the huge thunderous booms. Usually has lots of buddies --- other equally careless/macho guys who pal around with him and assist him with his gloriously noisy tasks.
from "The Red Green Show" Patrick McKenna as Harold Green: Okay, it’s time to play the Possum Lodge Word Game, and playing for tonight’s grand prize is local demolitions expert, Mr. Edgar K. B. Montrose! K.B. stands for “Ka Boom”
Graham Greene as Edgar K. B. Montrose: Oh, I wouldn’t say I’m an explosives EXPERT, Harold --- I prefer to think of myself as just an explosives ENTHUSIAST!
Steve Smith as Red Green (in a tone of slightly wary sarcasm): Ya got a LICENSE to use high explosives, do ya, Edgar?
Graham Greene as Edgar K. B. Montrose (looking innocently puzzled): How do you mean?

A former Washington D.C.-based "yupscale" department-store chain dat featured live-music entertainment.
Simon and Garfinkel's stayed open 24/7 because they wanted to make sure their customers would still have time to shop after watching their singers perform for a number of hours.

The similar-sized state that's "next-door" to Mississippi is Louisiana, so I wonder if Mr. Sippi's first name is "Louis"?

"You can keep purchasing small costlier-per-piece packages of a product till Doomsday, and you will always continue needing a sizable amount/quantity of it per week/month/year. But then just as soon as you plunk down a tidy sum for an economy-priced bulk-quantity of said commodity, your needs and/or lifestyle will immediately change, and so now you will likely never even begin to consume that much volume in your entire lifetime."
For example, you purchase several cases of plain white paraffin candles for your antique chandelier that you love to illuminate every evening, only to then discover that an electric-candle "upgrade" kit is available, and comes with fixtures that look just like the elegant candles and fit perfectly into your chandelier's holders! So now you're stuck with many hundreds of little white-wax tapers that you'll probably never have any use for.

I feel like such a total bulk-buying buffoon --- I had been consuming several expensive plywood-cutting circular-saw blades per year in my household woodworking-tasks, and so eventually I had purchased a bargain-priced fifty-pack of only-minutely-rusty "new old stock" Skilsaw-blades from a private seller on E-Bay. But then I had started using a larger-bladed table-saw for most of my panel-slicing/trimming needs, and so I've only used one or two of the circular-saw blades from the package in the many months since that time! Sounds like a classic case of "Murphy's Law Of Buying In Bulk" to me!!!

An outbuilding or annex separate from the main hall of a church, where young men can go to have their sexual desires satisfied as a bribe for attending boring church-services.
"Unattached" or dissatisfied-with-their-present-girlfriends guys can often be easily persuaded to attend your church's "services" if you make sure to throw in promises of "good times" in the church erectory; the problem is finding enough "willing:" young chicks to actually provide said delightful "services" to said horny studs.

Refers to regularly-doled-out "buddy payment" expenditures dat occur after a "frisky stallion and mare" couple has separated and thus are no longer "horsing around" with each other.
Da term "palominoy" could also refer to da relinquishing of actual "equine assets" after a divorce or co-habitation breakup --- i.e., one party is obliged to turn over to da other party one or more horses dat he owns as support/recompense for da two-party union's no longer being present.
