In America, limousines originally rolled off the assembly line as complete cars. They weren't super-stretched monsters. Around the late-1970s, early-1980s, companies began taking pre-existing cars (Cadillacs and Lincolns being the most popular choice) and stretching them by cutting them from one side to the other, between the front and rear doors, and 'filling in' in the middle.

Get the limousinemug. Crystalized carbon. Diamond is a cubic mineral, like gold, spinel, fluorite, etc. Its ideal crystal shape is eight-sided -- two pyramids attached to each other. Its refractive index is 2.42, as opposed to cubic zirconia which is 2.15; sapphire and ruby which are 1.77; emerald, aquamarine, heliodore and morganite which are 1.57, and so on.
Diamond is rated as a 10 on the Mohs hardness scale, but only because it is the only natural gem harder than corundum (sapphire and ruby) which are a 9 on the scale. In reality, diamond is more like a 41 -- its not just a little harder than corundum, but mucher harder.
Diamonds are mined in South Africa, Australia, Siberia, Canada, Brazil and a few other lesser places. Most gem-quality diamonds mined are a light yellow or light brown color, but the stones occur naturally in every color of the rainbow, including colorless (which is the most popular for jewelry), milky translucent white and opaque black.

Get the diamondmug. A term coined by TV and radio personality Adam Corolla.
The level of stink/stench that can be given off by a human being. The scale goes from zero (they have no scent) to 50, which according to the creator of the term 'hobo power', is theoretical. In his own words, "If you experienced 50 hobo power, you would die."

One of the people who called in to the Loveline radio show explained he takes care of a mentality retarded man. He went home one night after his shift was over, and the next worker on the shift turned the heater up in the patient's bathroom. During the night, the patient went to the toilet and deficated, but missed and got some on the heater. The poor caller had to clean up the mess the next morning, and nearly threw up. Adam Corolla pegged the hobo power of the incident at about 26 or 27, stating that if the caller had slipped in the fecal matter, it would have been boosted to over 30.
