One possible origin for the phrase is an incident said to have taken place during the siege of the Alamo in 1836, when William Barret Travis drew a line in the sand with his sword and urged those willing to stay and defend the fort to step across it. Unfortunately, this heroic story seems to have been invented by a 19th century promoter long after the fall of the Alamo. But the myth itself probably greatly popularized the phrase, so it does count as an origin of sorts even if the incident itself was apocryphal. \n\nAnother possible origin dates back to the time of the Roman Empire. It seems that one of the Macedonian kings, a bit short of cash, decided to invade Egypt, then a Roman protectorate. His army was met at the border by a lone Roman senator named Popillius Laenas, who ordered the king to withdraw. The king began to stall for time, so Popillius Laenas drew a circle in the sand around the king and demanded that the king agree to withdraw his army before he stepped out of the circle. The king, apparently impressed by the senator's nerve (or, more likely, by the Roman Empire in general), withdrew. Incidentally, not only is this account verified by contemporary historians, but it also may be the only known instance of a line drawn in the sand actually stopping someone.

I'm not 100% certain, but every time I hear it I want to punch the person who said it in the face and/or run them over with my car (or a larger car).  \n\nIt's usual colloquial usage is when someone does something very rude, cruel, or generally nasty and wants to follow it up with an insincere apology thus cementing their total lack of tact.\n\nHypothetical situation:\nTwelve year old Jenny hits a volleyball lightly over the net at a family party.  Uncle Chad, who's had a few Budweisers already, leaps up and spikes the ball as hard as possible into her face.\n"My bad!"

It's short for "dropping a dime", which is a term that originally meant making a telephone call from a payphone (which used to cost a dime).  I assume the origin of the term is that both an assist and a phone call involve making a connection between two physically-separated people.\n\nPlus it just sounds cooler than "assist".  Kinda like how "boards" sounds better than "rebounds".

Usually its "are you a friend of Dorothy?". Quite a bit outdated from when homosexuality was a criminal offence and you could be jailed. But it was code for those in the know, if someone was gay or not. And it was a Wizard of Oz reference.

"Flash in the pan"\n\nAn effort or person that promises great success but fails. For example, His second novel proved to be a flash in the pan, or We had high hopes for the new director, but she was a flash in the pan. This metaphoric term alludes to the 17th-century flintlock musket, which could be fired only when the flash of the priming powder in the lockpan ignited the charge in the bore. When it failed to ignite, there was only a flash in the pan and the gun did not shoot

Others have answered (correctly) what it would mean is a medical situation regarding male physiology and development.  Please don't take this as an idiot reply, but it is a saying that refers to a males manhood, masculinity or confronting conflict or aggression.  Having "balls" is the slang way of you're a man and will stand up or defend what you or your friend believes in when challenged by another man.  It also means that if someone says that to you they don't have any respect for you since you won't stand up for yourself or beliefs.  Example....if a bully or jerk pushes you around, makes offensive remarks about your wife and children or "steals your lunch money" and you back down and just walk away without doing anything in response; your friend or anyone nearby might say, "Your balls haven't dropped yet".  Bottom line your friend is calling you a wimp, a candy-ass or a coward.  Not exactly a boost for your ego.  And the word will get around depending on the incident.  Sorry for the long answer, but I wanted to make it clear that no man (or their family or friends) wants to be told that.

The correct phrase reads:\n\nThe QUIET before the storm.  \n\nThis typically refers to pathetic fallacy (nature in sympathy with "man") and refers to the *LULL* of activity before events unfold in a dramatic (stormy) manner.
