It was my little secret. There goes all my good material, eh. Just when they
thought I was slightly strange and a little eccentric they discovered I'm
actually Canadian.

No one outside of Canada gets a cent for a Canadian dime :)

Well, I called her the "Blue" [space] "Nose" for a twist. I wouldn't want
the Lords to get confused and sink your boat by accident so I'll rename her. I

It seems fitting and everybody knows what that one means now :)
