A well-known actor from the '80's who was prominent at the time, but then mysteriously disappeared off the Hollywood scene, and we haven't heard a word from him since.
Perhaps the movie-fans "hassled the Hoffa" too much, and so that's why David Hasselhoffa vanished without a trace; maybe he just wanted to be let alone.

The super-welcome/relieving point in time when ya hear a repair-person make the much-hoped-for "Aha! I just now spotted what the problem is" type of exclamation, and so you happily realize that not only did he locate the source of the malfunction in your device, but his cheerful/confident tone also indicates that he knows how to fairly-easily correct said issue, and so presumably you should be "back up and running" without too much delay or expense.
I always love experiencing that wonderful "Ohhhhhhh...!" moment whenever I take a malfunctioning vehicle or household device in for service, since it means that the device is indeed repairable after all, and won't be that much trouble to get operating normally again.

Da bu**s**t results of a lie-detector-test dat were unusable 'cuz da polygraph machine ran outta trace-scribing pigment.
Whenever da "good ol' boy" top-brass military officials had Ollie North submit to fibber-checking diagnoses during da Iran-Contra scandal, they always claimed dat said tests were inkconclusive... sounds to me like they either didn't wanna implicate "one of their own", or they were merely paid off to purposely sabotage da machine beforehand.

A.k.a. "a**h**e insurance". Refers to where you habitually bring a really intolerably-obnoxious human along with you on potentially-dangerous excursions, such as on an airline-trip, into battle or a "bad" part of town, on a road-trip through natural-disaster areas like flooding or rock-slides, into a hazardous-materials area, etc., to better your own chances of survival. The theory behind this practice, of course, is that whenever there is a widespread catastrophe or other mass-annihilation incident, statistically the "nice" folks are usually the ones who get killed, while the super-nasty inhabitants in the disaster-area invariably seem to escape with little or no injury. So the obvious conclusion would be that if you "keep your friends close and your enemies even closer" (i.e., always stay right next to the acridly-antisocial hombre who's accompanying you), the Fate gods --- who apparently like and favor the mean folks, since they always seem to spare them --- will be hesitant to allow anything harmful to occur in your vicinity, since they would not want to risk harming or killing one of their precious meanie-jerks, as well. Simple, but effective, and a lot cheaper and more reliable than buying death/accident-insurance.
The concept of the "a**h**e safety-net" is nothing new --- it's actually just kinda the reverse of taking hostages: while the latter involves keeping desirable people close to you so that their fellow humans will not send bullets or bombs your way for fear of hurting their abducted loved ones, the former strategy also utilizes the "human shield" concept, but in the exact opposite way... no respectable human being would give a rat's a** if your cranky-natured companion were eliminated ("Good riddance!"), but the Gods of Fate would indeed wish to maintain the well-being of such miscreant, and so they will feel forced to let you live on, as well.

What a modern-day Mary could have called her small fuzzy ovine pet and thus been allowed to bring it to class with her despite its ordinarily being "against the rule".
I'm all for allowing children to keep cute/cuddly pets as calming/encouraging companions to help them through da day; it's just dat allowing Mary to bring her "therapy lamb" into an elementary-school classroom would cause all kinds of issues, of course, since it would be a huge distraction to all of Mary's fellow students, who would naturally all wanna pet and cuddle da silky woolly lamb all day instead of concentrating on their boring lessons.

The act of "ultimate female-chest-sharing" by an amply-endowed lady while canoodling in bed with her snuggle-bunny. It begins with both cuddlers facing each other and the guy's re-positioning his pillow down on the bed a little ways so that he can nestle his head up underneath the gal's chin; he then gently lifts the gal's "upper" boob and settles his neck deep into her cleavage so that his face and neck are totally surrounded by the luscious warm softness of the gal's throat and bountiful chest-pillows. It has to actually be experienced to fully appreciate how truly "past heavenly" this position feels.
One of the nicest things about a horseshoe-pillow is that the gal doesn't hafta make virtually any effort herself to create it, and so she can easily perform it even if she's dead-tired --- all she has to do is merely lie on her side and allow the guy to nestle up to her chest and cradle his neck in between her boobs; he can then savor the dreamily-euphoric experience for a long period of time, even long after she's fallen fast asleep.
