    Here's some song lyrics you might recognize:

    Oh, the Merry-Go-Round broke down
    And we went round and round
    Each time t'would miss, we'd steal a kiss
    And the Merry-Go-Round went
    "Um-pah-pah, um-pah-pah
    Um-pah! Um-pah! Um-pah-pah-pah!'
    Oh, the Merry-Go-Round broke down
    And it made the darndest sound,
    The lights went low, we both said "Oh!"
    And the Merry-Go-Round went
    "Um-pah-pah, um-pah-pah
    Um-pah! Um-pah! Um-pah-pah-pah!'
    Oh what fun - a wonderful time
    Finding love for only a dime.
    Oh, the Merry-Go-Round broke down
    But you don't see me frown
    Things turned out fine and now she's mine -
    Cause the the Merry-Go-Round went
    "Um-pah-pah, um-pah-pah
    Um-pah! Um-pah! Um-pah-pah-pah!"
    Oh, the Merry-Go-Round broke down

    What? Don't remember?
    Maybe the music will help

    C'mon, math's always had a dirty side, look at the square root of 69

    there was one girl
    She was 16 years old
    She had sex with 69 people
    What does this make her
    Turn the answer upside down

    I know "The Merry-go-round Broke Down" is the name of that song thanks to Judge Doom in Who Framed Roger Rabbit.

    The only serious criticism of the NHS was its poor record on keeping people alive. On a composite "healthy lives" score, which includes deaths among infants and patients who would have survived had they received timely and effective healthcare, the UK came 10th. The authors say that the healthcare system cannot be solely blamed for this issue, which is strongly influenced by social and economic factors.

    I feel my version of British slang is somewhat outdated compared to the other examples being thrown up.

    Pips on a bobbin, etc.

    At least it hasn't devolved into rhyming slang yet.

    I understand the context, but 'Barney' meaning 'trouble' is just weird.

    Some rhyming slang has made the jump into regular parlance.

    'Berk', for example. Comes from ' Berkshire Hunt'.

    That's interesting, because "berk" is pronounced to rhyme with "jerk" and "Berkshire" is pronounced Barkshire. So the rhyming slang doesn't rhyme with the thing that it came from which rhymes with what it means.

    I like how with timeliness of care, the one thing people like to point out will increase with socialized healthcare, the US is only at number 5. The 'socialists' have more timely care that is less expensive.

    I find these fascinating:

    http://www.allaboutvision.com/conditions/ocular-migraine.htm
    Ocular migraines are painless, temporary visual disturbances that can affect one or both eyes. Though they can be frightening, ocular migraines typically are harmless and self-resolve without medication within 20 to 30 minutes.

    Other terms used by eye doctors to describe ocular migraines include ophthalmic migraines, retinal migraines and eye migraines.

    If an ocular migraine-like vision disturbance is followed by a throbbing, usually one-sided headache, this is called a "migraine with aura" (previously called a classic migraine), and the visual disturbance is referred to as an aura rather than an ocular migraine.

    A migraine headache without a visual disturbance preceding it is called a "migraine without aura" (previously called a common migraine).

    Migraine auras usually are visual in nature, but they can include disturbances of hearing, speech or smell; progressive numbness or tingling in the face or arms or legs; or generalized weakness.

    It's also possible, though less common, for an ocular migraine and a migraine headache to occur simultaneously, causing visual disturbances and unilateral (one-sided) or bilateral (two-sided) head pain at the same time, or for an ocular migraine to follow a migraine headache.

    Mainly because I'm having one now. I can't see half of what I'm looking at. Mine usually starts as a bright white round spot in the center of my vision that gradually enlarges and becomes mishapen. It usually lasts anywhere from 15 to 30 minutes, and then I get a splitting headache that lasts until I tkae a nap. Also, from the moment it happens, I usually feel like I've forgotten something, or that there is something I am supposed to be doing. It's pretty disconcerting for me. I don't like them.
