Kind of like "stemming the tide", Rob?

I've kind of wondered about that, too. Maybe it has something to do with "panning" for gold. You know, going down to the river to see what you can find to buy something for dinner. Okay, that's probably stupid. Sorry.

It could be a Canadian phrase, though, like they say chocolate bars instead of candy bars.

Stay loose, eh?

"Love and maple syrup
go together like the
sticky winds of winter
when they meet....
If you go into the forest
Gaze up through the trees
The sky is white.
You can understand
What makes the forest
Greet the man
Like a mother's only
child ..."
