Licks

Kick-ass chain of burger joints in the Greater Toronto Area and Southern Ontario. Puts everyone else's burgers to shame. If you're going to have a burger-and-fries meal, this is the place!

I don't eat burgers and fries very often, but when I do, I get them from Licks.

Air Canada

Canada's national airline, previously known as Trans-Canada Airlines. Originally government owned, subsequently privatized in the late eighties and early nineties. Took over Canada's other major airline, Canadian Airlines, in 2000. For a few years, a combination of minimal competition within Canada and bad times for airlines in general led most Canadians to hate Air Canada (with some justification, as service tended to be poor and fares expensive where there was no competition). The subsequent emergence of Westjet as a competitor within Canada and improving revenue has meant that things have improved a bit in recent years. Air Canada has a regional affiliate, Jazz, that flies smaller aircraft on more lightly travelled routes.

Also known as:

Air Cannibal
Air Cannibis
Air Can't...uh...duh
Air Chaos
Air Crappy
Always Crappy
Err Canada
Mapleflot
Scare Canada
Trash Can

I'm flying Air Canada to Winnipeg next week.

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.

Pearl Harbor

1. (Historical) An undeclared attack by Japan on United States military installations in Hawaii (including the naval base at Pearl Harbor) on December 7, 1941 that led to the United States entering the Second World War.

2. A generic reference to a 'sneak attack' of any kind.

3. An awful 2001 movie, with fictional 'pretty boys' inserted into the historical events of Pearl Harbor in a similar way that Leonardo DiCaprio's character was inserted into the historical events surrounding the sinking of the Titanic in the movie of the same name. (One perceptive critic described the movie as "Titanic with bombs"). The movie was savaged by the critics, although it was a financial success. To see a reasonably accurate filmed history of Pearl Harbor, see Tora Tora Tora (1970).

1. The battleships U.S.S. Arizona and U.S.S. Oklahoma were destroyed in the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.

2. Are you trying to pull a Pearl Harbor on me?

3. The only way to watch the movie Pearl Harbor is on DVD, with liberal use of the fast forward button.
