actiondale 

A punk rock band whose name is derived from the town where the members grew up: Allendale, NJ. The residents of Allendale began to sarcastically call their town Actiondale because it's complete and total lack of Action. Now Actiondale, the band, made up of Alex Tullo, Matt Fugazzie, Bill Schalvis and Chirs Garcia are filling the void left by the passing of Blink-182 in the land of pop punk masterpieces. They will be releasing their first cd, entitled 'Welcome to Actiondale' and touring in the Fall of 2006.

Word of the Day on October 4, 2026
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
