I grew up in northern Minnesota where hockey is king, but now live in the west. It just occured to me that I miss hearing people yell "Drop the puck" to express their impatience with somebody who seems to be taking too long getting something started. It's not really Reno related, but does anybody else have any favorite expressions like this? |

At work when describing a screw up:
"Anything worth doing, is worth doing twice."
"As long as we have re-work, we have work.
On inability to get a decision:
"When you come to a fork in the road, TAKE IT" (Yogi Berra)
"If you need HIS decision, wouldn't he have to BE HERE?"
"So EVERYTHING IS FIRST, nothing is second?"
"Did you want fries with that?" |
