n. In Baltimoron, this refers to the "official" beer of Baltimore, National Bohemian Beer. For a time, National's head Jerry Hoffberger also owned the Baltimore Orioles. Natty Boh was served at Memorial Stadium starting in the late 1960's. Alas, Natty Boh is no longer brewed in Baltimore. It is now brewed by the Miller Brewing Company in North Carolina.
The company's mascot, the one-eyed, handlebar-mustachioed Mr. Boh, has been a recognizable icon since the 1950s. Although the mascot itself was retired in the early 1960's, it is still a highly popular image, especially in Baltimore, where it is considered an unofficial city mascot. A Mr. Boh neon sign currently sits atop the former site of the National Brewery building in the Brewer's Hill neighborhood of Baltimore. The former brewery is now known as Natty Boh Towers and is rented out as apartments and offices. Mr. Boh still appears on all cans, bottles, and packaging.

Get the Natty Boh mug.n. Common reference to the great soul singer Al Green, whose greatest hit was "Let's Stay Together." It was in the early 1970s that Green san a run of hits that made him not just an R&B star but a pop icon. Since 1976, Green has concentrated on gospel music, recording numerous albums, but only two pop offerings. Since 1979, he has led his Baptist congregation, the Full Gospel Tabernacle, in Memphis, Tenn. For his release in 2007, "Everything’s OK," Green embraces both worlds by releasing a "secular" album under the name The Reverend Al Green.
"I wanted to put on this album who I am—to 'fess up to it! I'm the Reverend Al Green, and everybody calls me that, from Argentina all the way to the Catskills. So that's who I am."
"They've got catfish on the table
They've got gospel in the air
And Reverend Green be glad to see you
When you haven't got a prayer
But you got a prayer in Memphis"
-- Marc Cohn, 'Walking in Memphis'

Get the mao zedong mug.1. Nickname for a sailor trained to operate a Navy nuclear power plant. Navy nuclear power has zero tolerance for error, so nucs train day-in and day-out, and are constantly monitored. Hence, being a nuc is very arudous and stressful. Add this to the bureaucracy and politicization of nuclear power, and a nuc's life is a living hell.

Get the nuc mug.v. A metaphor for a person or a group of people believing their own lies and propaganda. The effects of doing this can be comical, e.g., Baghdad Bob, but this is usually the harbinger of the demise of the practitioner(s).
When Mikhail Gorbachev instituted Perestroika and Glasnost, it was obvious that the leadership of the Soviet Union was having a big session of "drink your own bathwater," assuming that Communism was actually about helping workers. Glasnost exposed the average Russian to the lies they had been told, particularly about how awful their standard-of-living was as compared to the West. Subsequently, Gorbachev and the Soviet Union lasted only six years.
