A:

After the printed expiration date of eggs, I’ve found they usually still taste fresh enough for a bit.

After my expiration date, the eggs will be your problem.

There are some US Department of Agriculture web sites that explains some things. http://www.ams.usda.gov/poultry/consumer/labelingexplained.htm

In any case one should keep the eggs under refrigeration at all times.
