Draw is the more general                   or generic term, and drag the more specific. We say,                   the horses draw a coach or wagon, but they drag it                   through mire; yet draw is properly used in both cases.

Oil \Oil\ (oil), n. [OE. oile, OF. oile, F. huile, fr. L. oleum;       akin to Gr. [?]. Cf. {Olive}.]       Any one of a great variety of unctuous combustible       substances, not miscible with water; as, olive oil, whale       oil, rock oil, etc. They are of animal, vegetable, or mineral       origin and of varied composition, and they are variously used       for food, for solvents, for anointing, lubrication,       illumination, etc. By extension, any substance of an oily       consistency; as, oil of vitriol.          Note: The mineral oils are varieties of petroleum. See                {Petroleum}. The vegetable oils are of two classes,                {essential oils} (see under {Essential}), and {natural                oils} which in general resemble the animal oils and                fats. Most of the natural oils and the animal oils and                fats consist of ethereal salts of glycerin, with a                large number of organic acids, principally stearic,                oleic, and palmitic, forming respectively stearin,                olein, and palmitin. Stearin and palmitin prevail in                the solid oils and fats, and olein in the liquid oils.                Mutton tallow, beef tallow, and lard are rich in                stearin, human fat and palm oil in palmitin, and sperm                and cod-liver oils in olein. In making soaps, the acids                leave the glycerin and unite with the soda or potash.          {Animal oil}, {Bone oil}, {Dipple's oil}, etc. (Old Chem.), a             complex oil obtained by the distillation of animal             substances, as bones. See {Bone oil}, under {Bone}.          {Drying oils}, {Essential oils}. (Chem.) See under {Drying},             and {Essential}.          {Ethereal oil of wine}, {Heavy oil of wine}. (Chem.) See             under {Ethereal}.          {Fixed oil}. (Chem.) See under {Fixed}.          {Oil bag} (Zo[94]l.), a bag, cyst, or gland in animals,             containing oil.          {Oil beetle} (Zo[94]l.), any beetle of the genus {Meloe} and             allied genera. When disturbed they emit from the joints of             the legs a yellowish oily liquor. Some species possess             vesicating properties, and are used instead of             cantharides.          {Oil box}, [or] {Oil cellar} (Mach.), a fixed box or             reservoir, for lubricating a bearing; esp., the box for             oil beneath the journal of a railway-car axle.          {Oil cake}. See under {Cake}.          {Oil cock}, a stopcock connected with an oil cup. See {Oil             cup}.          {Oil color}.       (a) A paint made by grinding a coloring substance in oil.       (b) Such paints, taken in a general sense.

drunk mouse syndrome n.   (also `mouse on drugs') A malady    exhibited by the mouse pointing device of some computers.   The    typical symptom is for the mouse cursor on the screen to move in    random directions and not in sync with the motion of the actual    mouse.   Can usually be corrected by unplugging the mouse and    plugging it back again.   Another recommended fix for optical mice is    to rotate your mouse pad 90 degrees.          At Xerox PARC in the 1970s, most people kept a can of copier    cleaner (isopropyl alcohol) at their desks.   When the steel ball on    the mouse had picked up enough {cruft} to be unreliable, the mouse    was doused in cleaner, which restored it for a while.   However, this    operation left a fine residue that accelerated the accumulation of    cruft, so the dousings became more and more frequent.   Finally, the    mouse was declared `alcoholic' and sent to the clinic to be dried    out in a CFC ultrasonic bath.

From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Drink       The drinks of the Hebrews were water, wine, "strong drink," and       vinegar. Their drinking vessels were the cup, goblet or "basin,"       the "cruse" or pitcher, and the saucer.                To drink water by measure (Ezek. 4:11), and to buy water to       drink (Lam. 5:4), denote great scarcity. To drink blood means to       be satiated with slaughter.                The Jews carefully strained their drinks through a sieve,       through fear of violating the law of Lev. 11:20, 23, 41, 42.       (See Matt. 23:24. "Strain at" should be "strain out.")
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Drink, strong       (Heb. shekar'), an intoxicating liquor (Judg. 13:4; Luke 1:15;       Isa. 5:11; Micah 2:11) distilled from corn, honey, or dates. The       effects of the use of strong drink are referred to in Ps.       107:27; Isa. 24:20; 49:26; 51:17-22. Its use prohibited, Prov.       20:1. (See {WINE}.)
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Drink-offering       consisted of wine (Num. 15:5; Hos. 9:4) poured around the altar       (Ex. 30:9). Joined with meat-offerings (Num. 6:15, 17; 2 Kings       16:13; Joel 1:9, 13; 2:14), presented daily (Ex. 29:40), on the       Sabbath (Num. 28:9), and on feast-days (28:14). One-fourth of an       hin of wine was required for one lamb, one-third for a ram, and       one-half for a bullock (Num. 15:5; 28:7, 14). "Drink offerings       of blood" (Ps. 16:4) is used in allusion to the heathen practice       of mingling the blood of animals sacrificed with wine or water,       and pouring out the mixture in the worship of the gods, and the       idea conveyed is that the psalmist would not partake of the       abominations of the heathen.
From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:
Drunk       The first case of intoxication on record is that of Noah (Gen.       9:21). The sin of drunkenness is frequently and strongly       condemned (Rom. 13:13; 1 Cor. 6:9, 10; Eph. 5:18; 1 Thess. 5:7,       8). The sin of drinking to excess seems to have been not       uncommon among the Israelites.                The word is used figuratively, when men are spoken of as being       drunk with sorrow, and with the wine of God's wrath (Isa. 63:6;       Jer. 51:57; Ezek. 23:33). To "add drunkenness to thirst" (Deut.       29:19, A.V.) is a proverbial expression, rendered in the Revised       Version "to destroy the moist with the dry", i.e., the       well-watered equally with the dry land, meaning that the effect       of such walking in the imagination of their own hearts would be       to destroy one and all.
