what does the term " stone the crow" mean?
952015
I was able to find only one place that attempted to define it...\n\nhttp://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=stone+the+crow\n\nGiven the context, I would say it's more about doing something risky or stupid.

It comes from I think the movie "American pie" if I remember correctly. 'Stiffler' uses it. It means Mother I'd like to f*ck.

"A rolling stone gathers no moss" is a saying that dates back to at least the 15th century. There are two common interpretations to the metaphor:\n-- A person who never settles down never makes any money\n-- A person who never settles down remains free of the encumbrances and restrictions of society\n\nThe attraction of the phrase in Blues and Rock circles is that both interpretations fit how the artists tend to see themselves, at least when they are starting out. Travelling from town to town, avoiding the "straight life" ("straight" in the sense of "law-abiding"), struggling to make just enough money to get by (or maybe not), these are all common themes in the lives of many Rock, Jazz, Blues, and Hip-Hop artists.\n\n"Rolling Stone" seems to capture that self-image in a very poetic way.\n\nASIDE TO JOHNG: Never heard the "never ages" interpretation, but I think you may be onto something there. There is a lot of that "Peter Pan" theme, especially in Rock.

I always thought it meant "Mmmm.....'kay."  Like Hmmm....Okay. Or maybe kinda like what that counselor character on South Park is always saying!

the one who's satisfied with what he/she is.\n\nthink about traditional tales: in many of them is told that precious stones loose their value and turn to common stones when they are stolen and brough out of their place...

It's a joke word invented by the 18th c. English poet  William Shenstone, to poke fun at people who use long pompous Latinate words.  That it means (as Jennie says) valuing as worthless redoubles the irony.

perhaps it means, to do things in small steps, not to rush take time, the man removes the rocks of the mountain one by one and in the end moves the entire mountain himself, this could also be a metaphor for conquering our mountains in life, and also to be independant in doing so. hope this helpsxxx lala, 16, xxx

It literally means, "saints."  It is often used in New Mexico in reference to statues of saints.  A santero is the artist who makes these statues.

Long Bow (from which the 'giving the bird' symbolism of sticking 2 fingers up at an enemy is derived - give me 10 points and I'll expand on that in the comments bit for you), balister (a form of large Roman crossbow), short sword, broadsword, halberd and pike.\nLancashire won, and remains the centre of civilisation and Gods own country, Yorkshire being famous for its pudding. UK residents are reminded of this in the mnemonic for the colours of the rainbow; Richard (Red) Of(Orange) York(Yellow) Gave(Green) Battle(Blue) In(Indigo) Vain(Violet).

The film's title was derived from a familiar, tongue-twisting Mother's Goose children's folk song (or nursery rhyme) called Vintery, Mintery, Cutery, Corn. The ones that fly east and west are diametrically opposed to each other and represent the two combatants in the film. The one that flies over the cuckoo's nest [the mental hospital filled with "cuckoo" patients] is the giant, 'deaf-mute' Chief:\n\nVintery, mintery, cutery, corn,\nApple seed and apple thorn;\nWire, briar, limber lock,\nThree geese in a flock.\nOne flew east,\nAnd one flew west,\nAnd one flew over the cuckoo's nest.

Just an opinion: first it is not one word but two karma chameleon. Based on the lyrics of the Culture Club song it means something along the lines of "fate changer" or one who changes to meet fate ("you come and go"). I could be way out in left field, but it's my guess.

In the Early  Days in England Stoned  initially referred to someone who was so Drunk that they were laying on the ground like a stone and couldn't move.  They would say the person was "Stone Drunk" (still Used in many British countries) Later on "Stoned" it was used to refer to anyone that was high/drunk, or "out of it".

its a murder of crows...\n\ncrows are commonly known as the 'bird of death' so it makes perfect sense to call it a murder of crows. there scavengers, there black in color, and when they fly over you, its a bad omen. it all leads up to eventually calling them a murder of crows.
