In 1966, Andy Dufresne escaped from Shawshank prison. All they found of him was a muddy set of prison clothes, a bar of soap, and an old rock hammer, damn near worn down to the nub. I used to think it would take six-hundred years to tunnel under the wall with it. Old Andy did it in less than twenty. Oh, Andy loved Geology, I guess it appealed to his meticulous nature. An ice age here, million years of mountain building there. Geology is the study of pressure and time. That's all it takes really, pressure, and time. That, and a big god-damned poster. Like I said, in prison a man will do anything to keep his mind occupied. It turns out Andy's favourite hobby was totin' his wall through the exercise yard, a handful at a time. I guess after Tommy was killed, he decided he had been here just about long enough. Andy did like he was told, buffed those shoes to a high mirror shine. The guard simply didn't notice, neither did I... I mean, seriously, how often do you really look at a mans shoes? Andy crawled to freedom through five-hundred yards of shit smelling foulness I can't even imagine, or maybe I just don't want too. Five-Hundred yards... that's the length of five football fields, just shy of half a mile.
Andy Dufresne - who crawled through a river of shit and came out clean on the other side.

Founder of Dufresne Furniture and primary distributor for Ashley Furniture Inc.
The Special Olympic equivalent in Canadian retail furniture supply. Nepotistic, dysfunctional and highly self-congratulatory for poor business management. Unethical practices primarily responsible for profitability.
My boss encouraged me to inflate our numbers to make the financials look good then pulled a Dufresne Group and fired me for it to save his own ass.
In the film Shawshank Redemption, Andy DuFresne wanted library books, so he sent letters constantly to request the libary books. Then when he request was accepted, he sent more to get even more library books.
To pull an Andy DuFresne is to constantly hassle someone when you want something. Usually in regards to letters, like in the movie, or emails.
Ah yea, those bastards weren't answering my emails so I had to pull an Andy DuFresne on them.

When something "vanishes like a fart in the wind", a la Andy Dufresne from Shawshank State Prison.
Ex: "My $50.00 wine opener I got in Italy Dufresned on me after my daughter's bridesmaids got ready for her wedding at my house."
Going through a shitty thing, you make it out you get to do something good. Like Andy Dufresne
