steelwool

Long continuous shaving of steel, iron or copper that is wrapped up in balls and sold in hardware stores.

Used for scrubbing, cleaning and buffing just about anything, they are avaliable in different thickness from super-coarse for scrubbing pots to ultra-fine for buffing balsa wood.

The ultra-fine stuff can bet set on fire with a nine-volt battery for cool firey and smokey effects. See wooley rocket.
Steelwool is very useful for electrically lighting fuses from a safe distance.

Swing Out Sister

British band featuring the vocals of Corrine Drewery. Never does the same music genre twice - they like to experiment. Very popular in Japan. Twice the size of average bands which sometimes prevents them from touring. Generally described as Chantese Jazz.

Popular songs:

Now You're Not Here (#1 International Hit)
Breakout
Twilight World
Some Enya fanboy: SOS is ok, but their sound is so synthesized. I like Enya better because she's got such a natural sound.

Swing Out Sister fanboy: You DO know that Enya is 100% synthesized, right? I mean even her vocals are enhanced by computer. She can't even tour because her sound is impossible to create outside of the music studio. On the other hand, SOS has a 10-peice band with all real instruments with one of the best keyboardists in the world.

The Universe

Everything there is, at least by peons that don't know any better.

The Universe is relative... to the creatures that live in it, it's everything, but to the people who create them it's just another task that has to be maintained every couple thousand years.

I think the Universe we humans live in is really a scientific experiment gone horribly wrong. I think it was created by some advanced, but very fallible, students using futuristic technology. To us these students are our Gods. To their professors they are total smegheads and gits, always causing trouble.
Two Gods are taking a leak in the restroom....

God #1: So how is The Universe going?

God #2: My professor thinks I'm going to have to flood the damn thing and start over from scratch. The DNA is just so corrupted from so much inbreeding.

I *knew* I should have added "Thou shalt not do thy brothers and sisters" to my list of commandments. How about yours?

God #1: Well I already tried the flood thing... plus I sent down massive earthquakes, tornadoes, volcanic eruptions and the like... and many of them STILL won't acknowledge my existence!

I think maybe if I send down that Messiah I promised to that git early on, it might help.

God #2: I wouldn't hold your breath on the Messiah thing. I mean it MIGHT work... in about 2000 years or so.

oxygen

Gas which animals need to survive and is produced by plant life.

Tree-hugging hippies would like you to believe that 90% of the oxygen in the world is produced by trees and if we lost all the trees, we're dead.

But the truth is trees only supply about 6% of the oxygen... the vast majority comes from algae in the ocean.
Love is like oxygen. You get too much it gets you high. Not enough and you're gonna die. Love'll get you high.

-Sweet

Evelyn Wood

A woman who developed a method for speed reading. Also used as a reference to her popular training method.

The Evelyn Wood speed reading method is a way of reading whole paragraphs at a time, filtering out common words and only look at uncommon words. By only looking at the uncommon words, you get the jist of each paragraph without actually having to read every single word in it.
Oh great! I was just glancing at a review for the movie we were going to see tonight and my Evelyn Wood training kicked in and now it's spoiled for me. So... why don't we just stay in bed instead?
