Tough Times

Often refering to the micro environment (but with acknowledgement of the macro) this term offers an explanation of a difficulty encountered by an individual.

The Life and Times of Juniper Lee

A decent show on Cartoon Network. Juniper Lee fights to protect her hometown and citizens both human and magical from evil beings. She is "the chosen one", and her family and a talking Scottish puppy give her help and support she needs. It is vastly different from anything else on CN, so despite the lack of more interesting scripts, it fills a void created by the absence of other realistically animated, family friendly shows. It is also very respectful to minorities.
"I like The Life and Times of Juniper Lee. It has some annoying characters and storylines, not to mention a horrid theme song, but good Disney-like animation, light-hearted humour and family themes make it watchable. We haven't seen something like this on Cartoon Network for too long."

times

The Los Angeles Times. Also known as an extreme leftist publication that will do ANYTHING to keep the Republicans (see "people that use logic") out of California.

Also decided to become a propoganda publication by delivering papers to people's houses who DID NOT have subscriptions on the day they ran the article on Arnold Schwarzenegger's sexual harassment "allegations".
The Los Angeles Times is comprised of a bunch of hippies who need to start thinking about Right vs. Wrong, not to consult how they "feel" about something.

shizzle me timbers

Variation of shiver me timbers, the pirate phrase meaning "shake my bones." An expression of mild shock. The kind of thing you'd say if your dad stood on the table in the middle of your local Chinese restaurant and whipped out his tackle.

Shiver me timbers

What most people don't know is that the pirate saying "shiver me timbers" actually means to "brake the boat". You see timber is obviously wood. The word shiver is to break or split, also referring to a fragment or splinter. In other words "split my wood". This term would most likely be used in an attack from another pirate ship. It does not mean the following: getting laid, an exclamation of surprise, or that you are cold. However most people do use it as an exclamation of surprise.
