2012: The Year the World "Hit the Rotors"

Tim Blair suggests a new term to use: "hit the rotors."
This is a reference to birds hitting wind power generators, in response to a news story of Sea Eagles being minced. He figures this should be used instead of terms like "hit the skids" or "went belly up." I think its a good replacement for "jumped the shark" which I've never liked to begin with. --Word Around the Net: WORD AROUND THE NET
