Freelance Police

A team (preferably a duo) hired by a police commissioner (preferably not seen) to take on cases and jobs (preferably none anyone in their right mind would do) for a meager wage (preferably in Hostess snack food and non-bootleg corndogs).

Only wisecracking overzealous crime stoppers fill this job. They are found loitering near convenience stores, have wanton disregard to the rules of the road, and take random things as "evidence". Cases handed to them always get done, but probably not in a way people expect them to be solved.

Person 1: Did you know Freelance Police curse in long hand?

Person 2: Well, semicolon apostrophe hyphen comma good for them!

peeance freeance

A phrase made up by Dubya, used to refer to Iraq. From context, it apparently has a positive connotation, but is distinct in meaning from "secure". Most likely means something to the effect of "peaceful and free".

A peeance freeance secure Iraq in the midst of the Middle East will have enormous historical impact.

Boffin

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.

According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
