No Matter . . .

. . . where they originate
Or their length or their size
Or their breadth
No matter the gravity
Of a thought they convey
Or if there's a lack of such depth

All's fair in this game
(or this passion; this craft)
Any scrap, bit or morsel is good
As in automobiles
Homosapiens too
Reserve judgement
Til you're under the hood

Have a bite of this now
Just in passing; a taste
You may find that it's droll; or enhancing
Nothing serious now
It's not science or skill
At this time, it's a season for dancing

Bought . . .

. . . The Farm

(from http://www.phrases.org.uk/meanings/72850.html)
". . . The origin of this phrase is uncertain. It is 20th century and all the early references to it relate to the US military. The New York Times Magazine, March 1954, had a related phrase, in a glossary of jet pilots' slang:   "Bought a plot, had a fatal crash."  if a serviceman was killed in action, his family would receive a payout from the insurance that service personnel were issued with. This would be sufficient to pay off the family mortgage.

Ho . . .

. . . bo?. . .

.

(from wikipedia.com)
". . . The origin of the term is unknown. According to etymologist Anatoly Liberman, the only certain detail about its origin is the word was first noticed in American English circa 1890. Liberman points out that many folk etymologies fail to answer the question: "Why did the word become widely known in California (just there) by the early Nineties (just then)?"Author Todd DePastino has suggested it may derive from the term hoe-boy meaning "farmhand", or a greeting such as Ho, boy!Bill Bryson suggests in Made in America (1998) that it could either come from the railroad greeting, "Ho, beau!" or a syllabic abbreviation of "homeward bound".[4] It could also come from the words "homeless boy". H. L. Mencken, in his The American Language (4th ed., 1937), wrote:

    Tramps and hobos are commonly lumped together, but see themselves as sharply differentiated. A hobo or bo is simply a migratory laborer; he may take some longish holidays, but sooner or later he returns to work. A tramp never works if it can be avoided; he simply travels. Apart from either is the bum, who neither works nor travels, save when propelled to motion by the police. . ."







. . . or "Homeless Brother"?
