speechify

v. -- to speechify is to incessantly, superfluously bloviate in regards to an issue that usually calls for more direct action (or a change of course).

President Bush's strategy to combat the Iraq war's unpopularity is to speechify. Maybe he'll realize how dumb a strategy that is after his party loses Congress in Nov. 2006.

Jesus mode

Jesus mode is the reaction (usually a sharp force that sends you in the opposite direction) experienced when one has reached the boundaries of limitation in video games.

In Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, I was on a boat going westward when I encountered the "Jesus mode", that sent me in the opposite direction. I knew then I had reached the boundaries.
