Edward Mohair
The famous and highly-likeable veteran actor with a dignified manner and British/Irish accent who was known for his long/abundant cranial-plumage.
It's really too bad that Edward Mohair passed away just a few months before Locks for Love was established, or he could have donated some really nice tresses for their cause.

postage-pinchpenny
Someone who constantly attempts to minimize the cost of sending his outgoing mail, perhaps even resorting to dishonest/advantage-taking measures to save even more.
One of the most effective ways to be a postage-pinchpenny is to simply "reverse the charges" --- i.e., write your mail-piece's recipient's name and address in the space where its sender's address-information is supposed to go (and vice-versa), then slap a few cents'-worth of postage on the envelope/box so that it still won't cost you much to ship your parcel but it won't blatantly look as if you are merely trying to mail the parcel for free, and deposit your item in the Post Office's "anonymous" mail-slot or "outside box" to avoid your having to face the scrutinizing eyes of a postal employee who naturally would just reject the package right off. Then, of course, the Post Office will have no choice but to just unwittingly go ahead and deliver your package to its intended recipient (incorrectly believing that he is the sender who grossly under-stamped the package, and that they are therefore merely performing a "returned to sender for postage" procedure); this works best for merely "local-destination" mail, since the Post Office might balk --- and be suspicious about how this "distantly"-return-addressed parcel ever got into their "local" outgoing-mail box --- at expensively "returning" a mail-piece to a faraway location.

Eyeful Tower
The enormous and magnificent-to-see iron-latticework 1000-plus-foot-tall "sky-needle" in Paris. France.
I could go all the way to the City Or Light to see the Eyeful Tower, but I'm content to watch YouTube videos of other people's visits to the lovely landmark.

anal-echo
A highly-embarrassing (or highly-AMUSING, depending on who you talk to, or on whether "high-brow" or "low-brow" company happens to be present at the time) phenomenon whereby your butt-hole decides to do its Robert Perry impersonation --- i.e., you fart at the same time as you perform some other bodily-function "upstairs", such as coughing, sneezing, wheezing, gagging, etc. Extra caution/concentration/awareness is often in order in an instance such as this, since it can be prime circumstances for an incident of orifice-outflow overload.
orifice-outflow overload
Refers to where all of your bodily-openings are all "venting" at once --- i.e., you're simultaneously sneezing, coughing/gagging, farting, etc. --- and so you are unable to adequately monitor them all at once to prevent messy "oopses". It's not unlike what happens when a piece of complex equipment suffers a major malfunction and causes alarms and indicator-lights to go off all over the place, and so you cannot possibly keep track of them all or deal with many multiple issues at once.
Anytime I feel a bout of orifice-outflow overload coming on, I simply shed all my lower garments and race to da nearest WC --- that way, I am safe from any "accidents" because any offending fluid/matter will just go down da toilet or into da sink, rather than soiling my clothes or anything else in my general vicinity. And so far I have yet to be cited for public indecency --- seems dat folks would prefer having to temporarily see me in my birthday-suit rather than mopping up copious quantities of puke/poop afterwards... they merely bring me my pants and briefs again from where I'd haphazardly flung them in my frenzied headlong dash for da crapper, so dat I can re-dress myself in privacy before emerging from the bathroom-stall again.
