"Wheels off. Pants down.
I hear this at RHP every so often.
But I have NO idea what it means.
Care to enlighten a "clueless American"? "

Roughly equivalent to: Open mouth, insert foot. Or: got egg all over your face.

EDIT: "clueless American" is a pleonasm. As is "raging Spaniard." 😉

It is of course an unjust accusation and over-generalisation to aim at the American people.

.... still vulnerable to a verdict of guilty
as charged. No attempt shall be made

to explain or to justify or to hide.
No measured responses. No social noise.

You know I'll be careful of the glass.

(Last ten of twenty eight lines from "Candy Store",
one of many drafts from "While Boston Slept" 1980)
