Since this is Arkansas, I was wondering if any of you have ever "high-tailed" it out of anywhere. It's a wonderfully descriptive verbal phrase, and according to the Oxford English Dictionary, it "comes straight from the plains where a mustang, when startled, erects his tail in a sudden, quick gesture and runs like the wind."
Personally, I love to think of myself as a wild mustang whenever I flee from a potentially awkward situation.
