In a very obvious attempt at advertising in one of CD's forums, somebody who apparently runs a moving company stated that he/she meets the following needs:
Local! Long Distance! Short Hall!
So...I guess that if I have a long hallway in my home, I shouldn't call them...
I'm not sure why but for some reason that ad makes me feel very excited.
About the dust bowel - last year a Mexican expat forum I use advertised that they were having a Super Bowel party on the beach. Guess everybody must have brought bean dip.
I always heard it "... on pins and needles", not needles and pins. But whatever. It's all good.
Never ever, in my l o n g life have I heard "needles and pins." To say or hear it in that reversed way would be exceedingly awkward. It reminds me of a Cockney rhyme of some sort: Needles and pins, to swayback jinns.

"Pins and needles, needles and pins,
When a man marries, his troubles begins"
(Don't blame me - it's a traditional rhyme!)
There was also a popular song back in the early '60s, with the chorus,
"Needles and pins-ah..."
I can't remember who sang it - male, British, perhaps - or the rest of the lyrics.

Aha! The Searchers, Reba McIntire, The Ramones... co-authored by Sonny Bono... courtesy of Google. So far as the rhyme... my experience is the direct opposite. I married twice and failed to notice the word T R O U B L E stamped in large letters across the top of each license.
