I don't have time for the whole thing right now, but that rock and a hard place thing came from the Salem witch trials, I'm pretty sure.
They used to put pallets of rocks on top of you to get you to confess to being a witch, usually while you were laying on a suitably hard surface, hence the saying.
I'll do the whole thing later.
