rehab

An expensive but life-saving haven where rock-bottom addicts can finally sleep in a bed and eat something other than corn chips. Five percent of these regain their freedom, health, families, homes, jobs, and drivers licence by learning to change. The remaining ninety-five percent of these are just resting-up before their next binge.

Dude, I just got released from jail, evicted from my apartment, fired from my job, had another seizure, and my wife left me. Guess I'll get loaded and go back to rehab.

shucking and jiving

The science of appearing busy but actually doing nothing.

Dude, quit shucking and jiving and get back to work.

gallivant

The aimless pursuit of thrills.

Dude, on Fridays I just kinda gallivant around the office all day.

driving south

1. A totally plausible transition period one reaches while driving on the open freeway after work on a beautiful Friday afternoon, with the wind in your hair, some Smashing Pumpkins blaring from the stereo, a pocket full of money, a chilled beverage in your lap, and anticipating an awesome weekend.
2. Unwinding after work and entering a far truer realm of existence.

Dude, after driving south for a half hour I'm ready for the festivities!"

smooth

Completing a task with such grace and fluidity that the onlooker will lose appreciation for how difficult a task it really was.

Dude, the painter did a smooth job on the back door.

michael jordan

An electrifying basketball superstar who transformed the pathetic Chicago Bulls into 6-time world champions. ESPN voted him the number one athlete of the century. Every game Jordan would do something spectacular and for 13 seasons he captivated crowds with gravity defying dunks, inspired defence, and dramatic game-winning shots. Every season Jordan improved his game and remained a step ahead of his many foes.

Dude, last night John Starks talked some smack and Michael Jordan lit him up for 55 points.

chicago

Located on the southern tip of Lake Michigan, Chicago has an incredible skyline. Chicago is very culturally diverse and has awesome pizza, interesting museums, beautiful parks, blues clubs, and a strong theatre scene too. All four seasons are enjoyed in Chicago, but the summers can get intencely hot and the winters bone-chilling cold. The "hawk" (forceful wind) blowing off Lake Michigan in the winter toughens-up the residents there.

"...back to the same old place, sweet home, Chicago!"
