Has anyone ever heard of the phrase "More than the sidewalk" used as way
of expressing intensity, as in "I love you more than the sidewalk"?  No
one here has heard it, and a healthy sampling of 420s did not turn up
any reference to it.  We were not able to check vols. 3-4 of Dictionary
of American Regional English, as these are missing....   -DMc.
