Ducks on the Pond

A phrase denoting an imminent or currently favorable situation for the speaker. Also is used to describe a situation in baseball play, where runners are situated on SECOND and third base respectively.

NOTE: I am the author of the prior definition, which had one glaring error that needed fixing (i.e. a runner at second in lieu of first).

I felt the need to remedy my error. That is all. Godspeed, and may ducks inhabit your ponds....wherever they may be.

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.
