Here's one I found interesting....

The phrase, "the whole nine yards" refers to doing something all the way or with everything you've got. The phrase dates back to aviation battles in which the loads for the aircrafts' machine guns measured approximately 9 yards. If the pilot engaged a target and used up his ammo, he was said to give them the whole 9 yards.
