I know...that's an old saying that means "get lost", "scram", "begone"! But, ever wonder where some of these sayings come from? I Googled this one, but didn't really come up with anything yet. Looks like it'll take some digging to find out. Got any others?

probably related to hiking up mountains or hitch hiking - basically wanting them to be a long distance away from you for as long as possible.
