Add a pinch of phosphorous,

Last Saturday he set out to fix a screen upstairs. He went to the basement to get some nails. Downstairs he saw that the workbench was a mess, so he started organizing the workbench. Then he needed some pegboard to hang up the tools, so he jumped into the car and went to buy the pegboard. At the lumber yard he saw a sale on spray paint, so he bought a can to paint the porch railing and came home totally unaware that he hadn't gotten the pegboard, that he had never finished sorting out the work bench, and that he had started out to fix the broken screen, which we really needed fixed.

I've got to pinch myself every once in awhile.

They pinch that's all, make a lot of noise and pinch and then they go away.

Necessity's sharp pinch!

Now they want to build the levees a little higher and add some rocks on top of the canal. It's still a patchwork-quilt approach, which has already failed miserably.
