Edwin and the Pressure 

An awesome alternative rock band with several hits. Can seem pop-ish when compared to SOAD or Godsmack, but then most things are. They have a couple of great songs, most are based on drugs/alcohol. "Let's Dance" was a top ten hit for almost three weeks straight. They use distortion and light sound effects, keyboard and electric drums to emphasize a different sound. Quote, "'Edwin & The Pressure' is instantly captivating, cool, powerful, emotive and intense. From the slamming first single, "Superhoney" to the infectious "Firecracker," to the orchestral atmosphere of "High" and "Malibu Sunset," Edwin's voice links each and carries the listener on a dynamic musical ride."
Ediwn was also a solo artist with his album, "another spin around the sun"
Quote from Edwin and the Pressure, let's dance

You can drive through the night
Till the roads outta sight
Put the top down, hang out the window
Under the shiny Northern Lights

And who will be your man
And who will be there then
Cuz we all know shit happens
Let's dance
Let's dance

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.

Pee Calculus

When you have to pee in a movie but don’t want to miss anything, and must do the following mental equation: will the amount I have to pee cause enough discomfort to diminish my attention capacity for the remainder of the movie to an extent which is greater than the amount of the movie I would miss by making a mad dash to the restroom.
I saw Satantango last night, wonderful film but by the 5th hour I had to start doing pee calculus.
