@ Cornix - At times like this, I'm glad I'm Canadian. We understand BOTH the English and American terms for things...like Metric AND Imperial measures, and we understand that a "Hood" and a "Bonnet" are the same things...Spanner and Wrench...Bobby and Police Man....etc.
But here's one for you....What's a "Muckluck"?

eskimo boot? but it's bastardized ;P
you could also mean "nothing" though
OR, and this one is way better, a word that sounds dirty but isn't (and it's better because krusty the clown used it haha)
By "elk" I am assuming you are referring to what Americans call a moose (an elk is a type of deer in the US, just to confuse everyone).

You are right one of these wee little buggers.

And for the record, *we* have elks, and anything else would be an "american elk" or a moose. We had it first. Just like football. Stop stealing the names goddamnit!
Sucks, had a minor knock while driving my wife to work, as the company told her if she didn’t turn up she wouldn’t get paid, we can’t afford to loose £65 from her wages over the xmas period so I pushed on an scraped another car.
$350+ for my house line and $850+ for my hobby shop business phone. I’m suppose to pay them by Dec 30th or they cut the lines. This is my pennance for letting the phone bills slide for 3 months!
Looks like I’ll have to play the nose-flik game after all.
