Case Queen 

A guitar that sees little or no play, it just sits in its case in immaculate condition.

Strangely the Case Queens are often the pride of a guitar collection, but they are kept from play (especially gigs) for fear of wear, damage or theft. Instead they are doomed to remain collector's items, trapped inside a velvet lined straight jacket in a climate controlled prison.
-Jeff's had that vintage Les Paul in his cupboard for 5 years and I haven't even seen him play it once, it's a total case queen

-Yeah, he'll play any of his guitars but that one

Used in emails, it is a common misconception that this is an abbreviation of the word 'regarding'.

Re is a latin word (pronounced 'ray') that means 'in the matter of' and was adopted by the English courts along with many other latin phrases. It has since moved into general correspondence.

Beach ball speech 

Any (usually political) subject which, when mentioned by the speaker, causes them to move their hands up and down while talking, as if they were holding an invisible beach ball. Also known as Watermelon politics.
I really enjoyed the Obama V McCain debate last night, but there was a lot of beach ball speech, too.

Warmup pic

A message sent to your lover before they come home, as a preview of what they'll be getting when they arrive.
John keeps looking at his phone and grinning, I think he's been sent a warmup pic.
