Any other (in)famous phrases come to mind?

Read that Rafferty trademark his famous "with a kiss" and "onions!" phrases too.

I don't understand either the original expression, "the ceiling is the roof" or the "ceiling, roof, goat" thing. Was the latter a typo, or does it actually mean something in some subculture with which I'm not imminently or intimately familiar. ;-)

Thanks. That explains the ceiling is the roof thing, but what's the goat have to do with anything. As a Cub fan I am very aware that 2016 was the year we banished all goats from the sports world! Why does MJ want to bring 'em back? You don't think he's just given NC a 108-year curse, do you? ;-)
