University of Guelph

Ontario university, formed in 1964 by the amalgamation of the Ontario Agricultural College, Ontario Veterinary College and the MacDonald Institute. Although best known for its focus on agriculture and life sciences, Guelph offers a wide range of programs, and has had a high rating in the recent Maclean’s magazine ratings of Canadian universities.

The University of Guelph is an excellent institution for the study of life sciences (and for partying too!).

rich

(noun) Someone with a lot more money than you. As such, the definition is elastic depending on one's economic status. Usually a term applied to others rather than to oneself.

Mouvement 51

Former political organization in the Canadian province of Quebec that advocated Quebec becoming the 51st state of the United States. They thought that it might be possible to arrange for Quebec to have only one official language more easily than if they remained part of Canada. This was probably true, except that the one official language wouldn't have been Français. The organization's policies don't appear to have been well thought-out.

Mouvement 51 wanted to ensure a French-speaking Quebec by becoming part of the United States. C'est fou!

tour de france

Also a simultaneous event in which the chemistry people try to develop testing techniques to catch the cheating from the first event. Some cycling is also apparently involved.

There are two types of competitors in the Tour de France -- cheaters, and those that haven't been caught (yet).

never-will-be

Similar to a has-been, but without the interval of being genuinely famous between originally being a nobody and then becoming a nobody again (afterwards).

The term is also sometimes applied to pseudo-celebrities that are used to pad out the roster of guests at TV programs and other events that wanted real celebrities, but couldn't get them.

Sometimes, the never-will-be is deluded enough to think that they truly were famous at some point, and is irritated that they aren't generally treated like the celebrities they feel they should have been.

Synonym: never-was.

He's never done anything important enough to be a has-been -- he's a never-will-be.

keith moon

British Drummer, 1946 – 1978, best known as the drummer for The Who during their most creative period. At his peak (circa 1970), Moon was probably the finest rock drummer that ever was. He was one of the first drummers to employ an extended drum kit (two bass drums, etc.) – more unusually, he had a style that could actually make full use of all the extra equipment. (Listen to “Cobwebs and Strange” off “A quick one” to get some idea of what Moon was capable of – not exactly a drum solo, but the closest thing he ever recorded to one.) His ability was progressively eroded by substance abuse and a destructive lifestyle up to his death in 1978. His passing effectively marked the end of The Who, although they released two more albums of original material (with Kenny Jones as drummer) and have continued to tour intermittently since.

One of my greatest regrets is not seeing a performance by The Who with Keith Moon at his peak.
