wrenegade 

A songbird who "trills a different warble" from the majority of his feathered brethren.

In "Pink, Plunk, Plink", the Pink Panther consistently plays the part of a wrenegade, much to the disgusted fury of the stuck-up and short-tempered conductor, who is trying to get the orchestra to play "Beethoven's Fifth" instead of the "Pink Panther Theme". In the end, though, Pinky prevails, and a beaming Henry Mancini himself claps approvingly from the audience-stands.

HO-scale 

Da track-size of glorious electric train dat da jovially-chuckling Santa Claus laughingly leaves in your stocking.

After "The Don" made his infamous disgraceful remark about da female college-athletes' "traditional people-of-color" hairdos, he should have said to himself, "Imus buy each of those insulted ladies an HO-scale train set as recompense for my outrageous insensitivity."

spirit of the law 

An alcoholic beverage that is used to bribe a government official to "cut you some slack" or "look the other way" during an inspection, audit, or investigation.

A classic "spirit of the law" joke, from an old 90's-era "Hagar the Horrible" cartoon:
IRS auditor: Hello, Mr. Horrible; I'm from the IRS, and I'm here to audit your income tax return.
Hagar (calling over his shoulder into the house): Bring me out a bottle of my best wine, Helga!
IRS auditor (making a huge huffy show of shocked indignance): You DARE try to BRIBE ME with a BOTTLE OF WINE?!??
Hagar (with cheerful imperturbability): Make that TWO bottles, Helga!
IRS auditor: (smiles broadly and closes his eyes in smug satisfaction --- hey, HE was no more morally-upstanding than the NEXT corrupt official; he just needed Hagar to "up the ante" a bit to get him to "take a soft approach" in his investigation! :P)

the buck stops here 

1. When you give money to a dishonest person to pass along to someone else, but he just keeps said cash for himself.
2. What happens in the vicinity of a "willing" doe during the rut.

Some years ago we naively gave one of the local tax-assessors the money for our yearly property-taxes, but she simply pocketed the cash and dishonestly kept it for herself... she shoulda had a t-short dat read, "the buck stops here"!

cariboo 

A spooky-looking large antlered mammal that comes out on Halloween to scare people.

I always carry a rifle on Halloween night if I hafta venture outdoors; it's unloaded so that I won't get in trouble with local authorities for animal-jacking, but of course any roaming cariboo don't know that, so they are hesitant to show themselves and try any of their creepy shenanigans on me.

a swellcum sight 

Refers to any delightful and sexual-desire-arousing visual experience --- like a group of hot chicks sunning themselves topless --- that causes a guy to get a woody and jizz his underwear.

"Relieving the pressure" before heading out the door can help you avoid any embarrassing "oopsies" if you unexpectedly happen upon a swellcum sight while you're "out and about".

Sherlock Ohms 

A late-19th-century detective who ferreted out resistance-causing corrosion and other conduction-faults in electrical and telephone/telegraph wiring.

"Sherlock Ohms" can also be used to describe how veteran actor Dennis Hoey pronounces the famous detective's name in the Basil Rathbone series.
