conversation piece

any type of decoration or accessory that sparks interest or curiousity among first-time onlookers.

Often they will ask questions regarding its origin, how you acquired it...etc. , thus leading to a conversation.

"I don't know how you got that Model T Ford in your living room, but I gotta say it does make an intersting conversation piece!"

Post Convention Depression Disorder

A condition affectiong conventioneers upon returning home. Symptoms include hangover (usually on the 1st day after return from convention) , lack of satisfaction in life because you're not at convention and checking the calendar every day to see how long until the next convention. Sufferers often write inconsequential messages on facebook or texts to other sufferers. This temporarily seems to provide some relief, but the effect doesn't last.

Sorry, I'm just not happy. I think I have Post Convention Depression Disorder.

converfriendsation

It's the perfect easy flow of conversation with a best friend. I speak, then she speaks, I speak, then she speaks. It’s like the tick tock of a grandfather clock.

Aloha convertible

An nickname bestowed on Boeing 737-200 N73711 (Boeing c/n 20209) of Aloha Airlines. On April 28 1988, this aircraft (flying as Aloha flight 243) was flying from Hilo, Hawaii to Honolulu at 24,000 feet. An 18 foot section of the cabin roof separated and a flight attendant was lost overboard in the resulting decompression. Everyone else stayed in their seats, and the crew was able to make an emergency landing in Maui. The accident was later determined to be due to metal fatigue, and resulted in more demanding inspection and maintenance requirements for high cycle aircraft.

We do dye penetration inspections on our aircraft because no one wants another Aloha convertible.

convenience fee

A fee added on top of the original fee due to the ease of payment.

"We noticed it was too easy for you to give us your money, so naturally, we'll need you to give us more. Therefore, you have been assessed a "convenience fee".
