Surely it could be a boy moose that is unfortunately very small in the antler department? (plus it's very cold)   ;)

Peeps, you were the first person to swear on this site in 2013 and, incidentally, the last in 2012.

Gosh. I just did a Google search. It seems that "aitch-e-double-hockey-sticks" is considered a swear word by some, across the pond. I'm amazed.

I've done some research. Quite fascinating as I had no idea. One contributor actually uses the "hockey sticks" term too.

You're right. A lot of people say, "O, Hell" when I show up :-)
