Long Time No SEE

Long Time No See has been accepted; and now can I say "No Table " with Table ( for both meanings in English and American )as a verb like See in the previous sentence? Or, again No Go as a verb when something won't happen as we expected it would.
Thanks and Please!

Australian Bushfires

Hi,
there's something it's not perfectly clear to me in the reading regarding Australian bushfires.The words which are not perfectly clear to me are included in double quotes.

1)what's a "bushfire"?

2)Furthermore I don't understand the exact meaning of the verb "scour". I would like to know if it is a word which is strictly related to the actual operation of a rescue team, whilst searching for victims of a disaster and related to how the search action is performed actually.

3)"Trapped-some" in their cars.I understand Trapped" but not the added "some".
