When expressions get used by the old farts like pwd72s and me, they are beyond cliché. |

what about when someone says "coming down the pike" wouldn't it be PIPE???
what comes down a pike? unless someone is doing something fishy. I've heard of a head on a pike, maybe that's what is sliding down. And i'm sick of hearing "in this economy" hijack over
