meanwhile, back at the ranch

A humerous phrase indicating a simultanious happening.

Derived from old Western TV shows or movies. Something exciting would be happening out on the range somewhere (or in town, etc), but at the same time something else would be happening at the home base, i.e. the ranch.

meanwhile

This is a term used between two or more people (though usually among gay men) to point out a nearby person who is physically appealing to the eye so as not to attract attention to the subject they are looking at.
John: I really like the new schedule they gave me at work.

Jason: Yeah, I am pretty impressed with mine as well. "Meanwhile" (as Jason uses his head and eyes to motion John's attention in another direction).

John: Oh wow! Yeah, definitely. You think he's related? (note that "related" is another gay term used. Check Urban for its definition.

meanwhile, back at the ranch

After someone goes off on a unrelated tangent, you focus them back to the conversation at hand. Usually, the tangent is from someone not originally involved in the initial conversation and spews forth unwanted or pointless information. Based on old TV shows, like Bonanza.
Beth: What do you think about the presidential canidates, Sheila?
GIRL 2: OMG, did you see Justin today? He is so totally hot. His eyelashes go on forever. Do you think I should dye my hair? My roots are totally showing and I was thinking about going more red this time.
Sheila: (Pause) Yeah. So, meanwhile, back at the ranch... I think Kerry is kind of creepy, but Bush is totally f**cking everything up. Maybe I should go Nader.
