I’m actually hearing the boss guy from Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law, but I might like yours better.
Well?
Thanks, matt_mcl for the update. This thread has been a learning experience. Some ignorance has been fought today!
So “Baie des Ha! Ha!” translates to “Ouch! Bay” or “Son of a Bitch! Bay” or some such?

If someone actually named a city that in New Jersey, would anyone notice?

Yes!
We have learned something!
We have learned that Canadians love to play “Hide The Cheese”.
I wonder where else they might hide it…?

What do you think we call Newark?
But now I’m thinking maybe we should start a petition to rename Ho-Ho-Kus. I think Ha!-Ha!-Kus has a much better ring.

I’m sure that would go great with a game of “Hide the Salami,” or perhaps “Bury the Brisket.”
I really respect the lack of punny headlines there. And the fact that it’s written in typical, bland BBC style. That takes some serious journalistic talent.
Reasons to be thankful for Canada, number eight-thousand and twelve*: It’s now been clarified that the bottom of a lake is not a licensed and fully-hygienic location. Good to know.

Well?
Oh, fine. It’s a thin waterfall into the Saguenay River, yellow in colour because it drains a swamp.
Humph, that wasn’t much of a story.

Well?
It’s a hole in the ground used to obtain water from underground aquifers. But that’s not important right now.
[/Airplane!]
Humph, that wasn’t much of a story.
No, but it makes me happy to know that it is a waterfall of caribou piss. It’s like Big Bone Lick State Park, although I was originally told that the name came from an incident involving Daniel Boone and cannibals. I liked that story better.
Cast thy cheese upon the waters, for thou shalt find it after many days. Many, many, many days. Echeesiastes 11:1
Cheese it! The Carps!
*Canada…
Come for the geese. Stay for the deepwater cheese fermented in a lake fed by caribou piss colored runoff from a swamp.*
I suggest the thread title be changed to “Canucks Chuck Cheese In Cove. Bosda Bemused.”
Actually, the Baie des Ha! Ha! is quite a ways upstream from the Chute du Caribou-Qui-Pisse.
I’m just full of comically expressed prosaic truths today, aren’t I?
Mmmmm… that’s no downstream caribou piss.

As opposed to the Globe & Mail’s effort?
