The US state of New Mexico. A play on the state's official nickname, "Land of Enchantment". The reference is really to the state's high poverty rate and relative lack of economic opportunity, which renders many people unable to get up enough money to leave, even if they want to.
I'd like to move to LA or Seattle, but here in Carlsbad, I can only get a part-time dishwashing job. So I guess I'm stuck here in the Land of Entrapment.

Father O'Malley lounged dreamily on his chez long, thumbing his holy book, recounting to himself a lost weekend with Italian sailors on shore leave;
"Luigi rattled my head board like no altar boy could. By Monday morning my Trades Man's Entrance flapped like a wind sock in a force seven gale".

A vehicle entrance to a facility that is obscure and infrequently used. Often the only people who know of this entrance are the employees who work there. Golf courses, farms, industrial parks, sports facilities and outdoor museums often have batcave entrances. Management often frowns on use of this entrance. This term is inspired by the "Batman" TV series from the 1960's. In that program, the entrance to the Batcave was down a little-used dirt road that was blocked at one end by a fake wooden barrier.
My boss told me I had better not be late again, so I had to use the batcave entrance to get to the office on time.
