Idiom Scenario 2
Two friends are talking ...
Friend 1: We are right in the middle of our one-week kayaking adventure and you want to change our route?
Friend 2: I have been looking at the map and I really think that taking a different route would be a lot more fun.
Friend 1: Changing horses mid-stream is never a good idea. We haven't vetted this new course. There is no way to change the plans we filed with the Park Ranger's office. What happens if something goes wrong? There will be no way for a search party to find us.
Friend 2: What could go wrong? We are proficient and experienced kayakers. I say we try this new route.

Idiom Scenario 1
Two colleagues are talking ...
Colleague 1: Here comes Carla. You had better look like you are really busy, maybe even pick up the phone and pretend that you have a call. Otherwise she will come and talk yourhead off for half an hour.
Colleague 2: Carla does like to talk, especially about whatever project she is currently working on.
Colleague 1: Right. So if you don't want to be bored to death by a thirty-minute lecture on the benefits of one data analysis system over another, pretend to be busy.
