My dad is interested in aviation, the space program, and history. He loves watching documentaries.

I had never heard of the "Canuck letter", so I looked it up:

I'm not British, but I'll try to translate "off-licence". The licence in question is a licence to sell alcohol. An "off-licence" means a licence to sell alcohol to be consumed off the premises.

Just because the honour roll student who got knocked up is in high school, that doesn't mean the knocker-upper is. Maybe the person with the "My kid knocked up your honor student" sticker is talking about their 30-something child.

I've seen a few of them in southern Ontario.

They'd probably tell you, "Oh man, you're right, religion is horrible. That's why I'm not religious. Religion is man-made, but I have a personal relationship with Jesus."
