Rintintintinnabulation
Rintintintinnabulation [Rin•Tin•Tin•tin•ab•ul•A•tion): The rhythmic drum-like pattering made against the floor by the tail of a dog as the animal sits on its haunches, anticipating the arrival of its keeper, or expecting an imminent treat.
Etymology: A portmanteau of "Rin Tin Tin" and "tintinnabulation"; from "Rin Tin Tin", the male German Shepherd rescued from a WWI battlefield by a U.S. soldier, which became an internationally beloved motion picture star; "tintinnabulation" was coined by Edgar Allan Poe in his poem The Bells (c. 1848), with the original meaning of a rhythmic percussion of bells, and later used widely in the United States to describe the gentle rolling or quiet tapping of drums. E.g. "One found oneself immersed in the ... tintinnabulations of clapping cymbal rhythms ... in the barely audible, rain-like patter of drums..."

"The loud mechanical noise of the garage door closing on its metal chains brought the dog to attention, 'sitting pretty' while the rintintintinnabulation of its tail played a steady rhythmic tattoo against the floor of the front-door foyer."

abandonware
n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere. Not legal, but often seen as morally acceptable because the company that made it is no longer selling the title, nor releasing it as freeware, therefore abandonware is "keeping the game alive", so to speak.
Doom II is not abandonware because id still sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.

Foot prisons
The first thing I do when I take off my shoes, is rip off the foot prisons I had to wear inside them. That's why I prefer flip flops, even in winter!
