Would "outasight" (slang) be considered one or two words?


Looked it up and it was one word in the song.

There was a character on the 80's show, The Equalizer, named, "Control".

The series featured Robert McCall, a former covert operations officer of an unnamed US government intelligence organization, which was often referred to simply as "The Agency" or "The Company" (it is implied that it is the CIA), who tries to atone for his past by offering, free of charge, his services as a troubleshooter, a protector, and an investigator. People in need find him through a newspaper classified ad: "Got a problem? Odds against you? Call the Equalizer. 212 555 4200." When he begins this business in the pilot episode, it is revealed that the nickname "Equalizer" was bestowed on him by another operative by the name of "Brahms,".

The name reminds me of the transpacific trade deal.

Sorry for the duplicate post, all, I think I'm wearing out my mouse. I've flagged it and sent it in to the moderators for deletion.

Ballpark > Bank-One

AKA The BOB. The name of the home field of a Major League Baseball team (I forget which; Arizona D-backs?). I'm not sure, but sponsorship may have transferred to another company (or maybe Bank One was bought by another bank).

Osters
Assuming from context that you meant oysters. Otherwise, my response is Sunbeams.

Oster and Sunbeam are brands of small kitchen appliances... or used to be.
