Dick In My Hand

It could be a reference to male pride, but in order to explain Sonny's usage of the phrase in The Godfather, it goes a little deeper. The word dick can also mean "nothing", and in Sonny's case I think "hand" has a double meaning. He means it literally and figuratively. If it's a reference to male pride, it's in the sense of the phrase "wearing only a smile", meaning that Michael would come out of the bathroom with nothing but his pride. More literally, Sonny wanted Michael to actually have the gun in his hand when he exited the men's room.

Sonny: I don't want my brother coming out of that bathroom with just his dick in his hand.

Michael: Don't worry, I won't have my dick in my hand anyway.

bear bait

n. a vehicle (or vehicles) exceeding the speed limit in the hammer lane, typically after a trucker has moved out of that vehicle's way. The expectation is that smokey bears will go after the vehicle moving fastest, thus keeping them occupied with a customer when you go by. Sometimes truckers try to create this situation on purpose by blocking all the lanes of traffic for a period of time to make people behind them mad enough to speed. see cop cleaner

The truckers were going four-wide on the highway for 10 miles, until the one in the hammer lane swapped lanes, and then the bear bait was released.
