49th parallel

Slang reference for the border between the United States and Canada. The 49th parallel of latitude does make up the western third of the U.S. - Canada border (the border dips south through the Great Lakes region), but the term refers to the entire border, referring to both the geographic and cultural divide between the two countries. Although scrutiny is understandably higher since 9/11, the border is still probably the most open international border in the world.

The 49th parallel is the longest undefended border in the world.

talent

Talent – Ability to do something well, like musical performance or acting. A complete lack of talent has never been a barrier to success in these fields (see Hilary Duff or Kevin Federline, for instance). Conversely, having extraordinary talent in these fields is no guarantee of success. Superior marketing beats superior talent every time (see Madonna).

Since when did you need talent to become famous as an actor or musician?

Living proof that the 22nd Amendment was a great idea.

Only two and a half more years of George W. Bush to go!

Miley Cyrus

This years model from the Disney tween starlet factory. The next Lindsay Lohan, Hilary Duff, etc.

I hope Miley Cyrus is saving up her money now, because the gravy train won't last.
