The name for a type of handgun used in WWII. The Welrod was a top-secret issue handgun, used commonly by the OSS (Office Of Strategic Services, now known as the Central Intelligence Agency).
There are two words to perfectly sum up the Welrod...peculiar, and frightening. The peculiar element of the Welrod is that it looks like a big pipe. The frightening part is that it had accuracy and range equivalent to that of a sniper rifle! The gun's biggest flaw is that it could only use one round per shot (after shot, you had to pull back on a little circular lock, then load the bullet in the top crevice, push the lock back in, and you're ready). Although it looks like a pipe, this is exactly why the shots are very quiet.
Only around 2800 copies were made. Not only that, but the only ones that are allowed to use or possess this gun are government agents.

I forget what caliber it was.... .32? .32acp? If I had my folder with me I'd go full-bore on this sucka. -_-'

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.
