Eurekagain<\/strong>: \/yo\u00c5\u008fr\u00c4\u201ck\u00c9\u2122gen<\/em>\/ Milly is one to give everybody a second chance. This even applies to dust bunnies. If her sad old vacuum isn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t able to pick up a lump of dust, she has been known to give them the Eurekagain treatment, running over and over these fuzzy little critters usually with less-than-wonderful results. She may even get down on her hands and knees to break up dustballs to make them easier to deal with. Etymology:<\/em> eureka (A brand of vaccuum)(a cry of joy or satisfaction when one finds or discovers something) + again (another time; once more) Created by:<\/em> artr.<\/p>\n

Hoovermaneuver<\/strong>: \/hoo ver man oo ver<\/em>\/ Al Capone was one nasty gangster who terrorized Chicago during Prohibition. Despite many arrests by the FBI, he always slithered out of their reach by having even more dishonest lawyers and buying out the police, judges and city officials. The FBI called in the Treasury and under Eliot Ness, Capone was eventually caught on tax evasion and sentenced to life. This hoovermaneuver sucked him out of mainstream, like a piece of lint into a giant canister until he died in prison of syphilis. Here endeth the lesson. Etymology:<\/em> Hoover (vacuum cleaner brand;lawyer who director of the FBI for 48 years) Created by:<\/em> Nosila.<\/p>\n
