TEZLA: alternative current: Christmas

My new favourite:

idiom: "pirate juice" an interesting combination of port and i think red wine. provided by, er, a pirate.
statement: "i know its not about the money" "nothing important ever is."
word: Gain- in audio, "gimmie some gain!" in concept, natural fortitude, to improve or increase.
concept: anything with enough variables to make the input/output infinite, is an instrument. Anyone capable of using said instrument to an accepted high standard is an artist.
phrase: "to go all bob dylan" ie when someone exagerates things out of all proportion, making everything deep and poetic when it really isn't necessary. eg "the heavens opened, i swam home and barely survived" "don't go all bob dylan on me"
word: Bash- eg i bashed my nose on the floor. eg i bashed through 18 pints then bashed my nose on the floor
