Pool lingo definitions

[KoolKat9Lives]

Pool has it's own language and new players have to pick up the lingo, piece by piece, sometimes at the expense of their humility!

I was hoping some more experienced players would share definitions of some.

A few examples and perhaps people will post more pool lingo defined:

Sweating it on the rail. Do you have to have a side bet to sweat?

Air Barrel: Is it only an air barrel on the last bet (I believe Hemicudas said something to that effect) or is it simply referring to someone welching on you?

Is it a tit, a point or a knuckle or ?

Air Barrell - can be fired at anytime for any amount in any duration at anyone that doesn't require their opponent to post.

Here's a term that isn't that new, nor directly pool-related:

Search: Computers. to examine (one or more files, as databases or texts) electronically, to locate specified items. (i.e. click on the upper "Search" button and input Pool lingo definitions and you will find multiple threads)

Ah ha... Search. I can take a hint... I hadn't seen one on this before, but I shoulds searched nonetheless. From 3 months ago, replete with pic's!:
