hagiography

the biography of a saint, or (sarcastically) an overly-fawning biography. A puff-piece.

That was no expose'. That was a hagiography.

Jesum Crow!

A bastardization of the exclamation "Jesus Christ!" but less vulgar.

Jesum Crow! I dropped one of my diamonds in the macaroni!

Archeologist 1: Whoo-hoo! I just located a motherlode of info on a civilization four thousand years old.

Archeologist 2: Wait! You can't open it. It says, "Do not open till 8113." Too bad.

Archeologist 1: Darn.

Bob Crane

crack

a now obsolete adjective popular as a business buzzword among yuppies in the early eighties. It described a worker who was very smart and very fast-paced.

This meaning of "crack" was forced out by the drug, crack, in the mid-eighties. Sort of like you can't say "gay" to mean "happy" anymore.

That was a good move to hire him; he's crack.
