The insurance industry uses "HO" for homeowner. A "ho" is entirely something else in street vernacular where I live. ;)

"Smokey" can be trucker lingo for a highway patrol officer. Short for Smokey Bear because so many highway patrol officers wore a "Smokey Bear" ranger style of hat. Even had a movie about it, "Smokey and the Bandit."
