wire fraud

Refers to the manufacturing/marketing/installing of long filaments of metal that are not composed of the more-costly copper, aluminum, stainless steel, etc. that you claim they are, but instead are just cheap brittle "white metal".

I don't get it --- infamous shyster-medium Sherry Tina Uwanawich was convicted of wire fraud, yet she was never an electrician.

Wires

Black people found congregating on street corners conversing about all things black.

"Let's walk on the other side of the street you guys, there's too many wires over there".

Do you think those wires could spare a Newport, I am dying for a cigarette with soouuuul.

There sure are a lot of Wires hangin' out front of the stoe, what is it? Free watermelon day ???
