Step on a crack, break your mother's back

This is an old children's game, anyone who trod on the cracks between the paving stones was out, until only one player was left, he or she was then declared the winner.
Step on a crack, break your mother's back– Most of us know the old rhyme “Step on a crack, break your mother’s back.” Whether the rhyme is the cause of, or a result of, this superstition is uncertain, though belief in it persists in many people today, even if subconsciously. Come to think of it, avoiding sidewalk cracks is probably a good policy for anyone who wants to avoid tripping.

backdoor draft

Backdoor draft – Military term used to describe the current government policy of keeping troops in the military beyond their original enlistment contracts through the utilization of “stop loss orders” (keeping specific shortage job specialties such as military intelligence and aviation in) and “stop movement orders” (locking down entire units so that troops can’t leave the military or rotate out into another unit). Some troops have spent one to two years serving past their enlistment contract or retirement date.
“Man, it sucks to be SGT Johnson.”
“Why’s that?”
“He had a scholarship to UT set up but now the Army’s keeping him in for another year to send him back to Iraqistan.”
“Is he going to loose his scholarship?”
Probably. Damn backdoor draft.”

once you go black you'll never go back

This statement derives from the general relativity theory published by Albert Einstein in 1915. It refers about the event in which an accelerated body crosses the spacetime boundary of a black hole known as the "event horizon". Beyond this boundary or "point of no return" the gravitational pull becomes so great as to make escape impossible and thus "you'll never go back".
"If a black hole is an oyster then the singularity is the pearl inside. The gravity is so strong it’s always hidden in darkness, beyond the horizon. That’s why we call it a black hole, once you go black you'll never go back."
