GO! Right now out to your shop and make some sawdust! You NEED it bad!
it comes from the British book( rumpole on the bailey) it's what the title character calls his bossy wife. She who must be obeyed.
Now THAT's a picture!
Actually, it's "Rumpole OF the Bailey" :-).
Frankly, it originally came from one of the old H.Rider Haggard novels in reference to a female leader of a tribe in Africa, and stands for
SHE WHO MUST BE OBEYED
