>From Elmore Leonard's 'Be Cool', Viking, 1999, 92:
Daryl Holmes said to his wife Michelle, "I wouldn't mind jumping off the
cliff. How about you?" They were in bed for the night, a lamp still on.
Michelle said, "I wouldn't mind."
"You wouldn't *mind*?"
"That's how *you* said it. You want a push, fine. Only I don't fall, I get
reborn."
"As a string of firecrackers. We only got what, a couple of months?"
"Doctor said you can do it as long as it isn't uncomfortable. Right up to
near term."
-- Is 'jump off the cliff' a recognised expression for copulation, or
copulation with a pregnant female? It's new to me. Any other cites?
