Get the mcdonalds mug.Suburban house that is actually a concealed indoor marijuana plantation. Grow-ops are usually loaded with high intensity lights for the crop, and often have illegally bypassed electrical meters, both to reduce costs and to prevent their detection by electrical consumption. They are often detected because of their heat -- either via infra-red thermography, or in colder climates, because snow melts on the roof faster than on other houses in the neighborhood. Some larger scale grow ops are installed in larger industrial buildings, rather than in residential areas.
The term is in common use in suburban Canada,

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

Get the University of Guelph mug.'Money' issued by the Canadian retail chain Canadian Tire as part of a customer loyalty program (similar to trading stamps). Notes of Canadian Tire Money are engraved, and have the feel of real money, although the notes are smaller than Canadian legal tender. Because of the wide presence of Canadian Tire stores across Canada, some other businesses in Canada will accept it as payment, and some Canadian eBay sellers also accept it. A widely known urban legend in Canada is the Canadian tourist (visiting the United States or elswhere) that convinces someone that Canadian Tire money is Canada's national currency, and uses it to pay off a debt.

Get the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy mug.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.

Get the Aloha convertible mug.Term invented (or at least popularized) by the late musician Frank Zappa to describe children conceived primarily for the experience of having them.
"There seems to be this trend for the young modern parent to have a child for these reasons: For the woman to experience the miracle of childbirth and for the young couple to raise their precious child to be this immaculate artifact of modern society. If people think today's punk kids are repulsive, wait until they see what these little artifact children are going to do."
