About the dutch ones: I thought I knew them all, but I've never heard of these two. They sound plausible, tho...
"laag zijn" - literally "being low"
"kaal zijn" - literally "being bold" (as in: lost his hair)
Another set I can offer are these:
"in de olie zijn" - literally "being in oil"
"op olie lopen" - literally "run on oil"

Sorry 'bout that one showing up twice... Sometimes in the middle of a post my system just freezes for about ten minutes, and I can't get confirmation that the message was actually posted. When I get back later, it suddenly pops up twice! 
Key: Complain about this post
