bowl weevil 

A small boring insect that is utilized by the sporting industry to form the three finger-holes in bowling-balls.
I don't know why people say they hate the bowl weevil so much --- how else would there be the finger-holes in bowling-balls?

Messighah 

Ultra-orthodox religious crap that is so insipid and improbable-sounding that it makes you "sighingly" bored.
If I hafta hear 'bout da Messighah one more time, I think I'm gonna puke!

fissuremen 

Early humans who inhabited large cracks in rock-faces, rather than living in caves.
The Anasazi lived at da bases of towering rock-faces, so I wonder if they were "descendants" of fissuremen, since their structures were located "lower down" on da cliff-sides?

musical cars 

Refers to a sort of "grown-up" version of the popular children's game; this procedure involves maneuvering around of two or more vehicles in a fairly small parking-area, either to allow one of them to enter/exit the locale, or to make room for additional vehicles that are scheduled to arrive later.
I really like owning three old clunker-sedans, particularly in case one of them is in the repair-shop and thus I hafta use one of the others for my basic local-transportation needs (and indeed, I occasionally have actually been down to just one somewhat-malfunctioning vehicle, but at least it has still been able to wheezingly/sputteringly/back-firingly get me from Point A to Point B around town till I got both of the other cars repaired and I could finally take this third one into the garage for some TLC of its own), but I occasionally hafta play "musical cars" if my friends drop by for a visit.

hillbilly 

A species of wild male goat that inhabits small/low mountains.
Hillbilly goats are easier to domesticate because it’s not so treacherous to chase and capture them than it is to climb high/rugged terrain in pursuit of the lofty-mountain-peak dwellers.

open-palm hand-clasp 

What is sometimes a good idea to do when holdin' hands wif a pretty girl for da first time or two, particularly if (A) she is somewhat on da shy side, and/or (B) if she is considerably younger and/or smaller-statured than you, and so you don't want her to feel "pinioned" or "dominated". It simply involves your holdin' out yer gorilla-paws and cradling her slender delicate digits in yer palms, but not actually closing yer own fingers over hers, so that her hands are always "free". Usually da tentative-natured cutie will be so grateful for your gentle accommodating of her bashful uncertainty in this way that she will feel like "rewarding:" you by keeping her soft warm palms resting right there in yers for as long as you wish.
I employed da open-palm hand-clasp when I first tentatively romanced a slight-figured mid-teens sweetie-chick whom I'd known and played fun outdoor-games with ever since she was a cheerful smiley little girl; I guess my strategy worked, too, since she seemed totally "calm 'n' comfy" towards me, and never showed even the slightest inclination to lift away her shapely slender hands while she was sitting beside me on da couch. Plus most of her immediate family was home, as well, and they were also being super-friendly and warmly-welcoming to me while we were all sharing light casual conversation as a cohesive group, and so I actually felt like I was holding hands wif da whole family, not just wif Cute Daughter.

neat ‘n’ sweet 

How you wanna make everything prior to The Inspector coming by to look at your place.
I try to always keep things reasonably clean and tidy around my apartment in any case, but this also lessens the burden of making everything "neat ‘n’ sweet" for da monthly quarters-inspection.
