"Yanking My Chain" Gold rush days in the US. Being in a mine the toilet was a modified mine cart with a hole cut in the top to "go" in. You'd climb on top of the cart, pants around your ankles to "go" and someone would give the cart a good hard push and off you'd go through the mine on top of the cart pants around your ankles screaming though the darkness. So to stop that you'd carry a piece of chain with you, wrap it around the wheel to act as a chock so you wouldn't go for a ride. So when you'd hear someone "YANKING YOUR CHAIN" you'd tell them to stop yanking your chain! If not you were getting ready to "GO FOR A RIDE"!

The Sword being worn on the left, means that the salute with the open right hand is telling the person being saluted that you are not about to impale them shaun
