Actually, I made the Nova Scotia thing up with my vivid imagination. But "skoash" IS a real expression we use.

Wow: rust check stickers. Never heard of 'em.

Doesn't rust take cash? Ya gotta write a check? Same with that "check engine" light: it forewarns of expenses but won't take credit cards.

Speaking of "check engine", oh please oh please can we see pictures of the engine!?
