Rangi

The primal sky father in Māori mythology

In the mythology of the Maori of New Zealand Rangi is the god of the sky. He was also known as Raki by the Nghaitahu of the South Island of New Zealand. He fell in love with the Papa - the earth and embraced her at a time when there was only darkness. There were numerous offspring of their union, such as Haumea, Rongo, Tane, Tangaroa, Tawhiri and Tu, but these as well as plants and fruit were prevented from growing on the earth by the tightness of the embrace of Rangi and Papa.

To remedy this situation, the other gods separated the two lovers. Some variations of the myths say that the separation was carried out on the orders of Rangi himself. When they separated light was created and the plants could grow. The Nghaitahu said that the morning dew is the tears of Raki for his beloved Papa and the mists are the sighs of Papa for Rangi.

In Māori mythology the primal couple Rangi and Papa (or Ranginui and Papatuanuku) appear in a creation myth explaining the origin of the world.

Vincent kept shootin' me this "Power Ranger" about getting with that sexy girl from the club last night. Everybody that knows him knew he took her ugly friend home last night!

See how this word is being used. Power-Ranger was launched; do to the fact that he kept runnin' his mouth about getting with a sexy girl. In this particular case...everyone knows his steelo. All he ever pulls are UGLY girls.

range rover

Older Range Rovers are poorly made and unreliable British SUV that are usually powered by an old Buick V8 that got phased out in 1963 and latter on sold to Rover. Newer Range Rovers are nothing more than American SUVs only a lot more expensive and far more embarrassing to be seen in. Basically they are cars for suckers who are willing to pay way over the odds for a hunk of junk.

Range Rovers are a poor Jeep clone.
