The Bridge End Dairy Company is a 120 year old cheese factory in Ontario, though it hasn't made any cheese in a long while.  It has been used as an eccentric country place for the past 30 odd years.  Occasionally music is made there, which doesn't require any livestock.  This is a good thing because the owners of the Bridge End Dairy Company wouldn't know what to do with livestock.

The Bridge End Dairy Company is also the name of a band, which you'd think might be easy to confuse with the structure known as The Bridge End Dairy Company.  This isn't the case.  The owners of The Bridge End Dairy Company affectionately refer to the 120 year old structure as "The Cheese Factory", whereas the band is simply referred to as "The Bridge End Dairy Company". For example: you might say "I left the lawnmower out at the Cheese Factory". This would mean you own a lawnmower and you somehow transported it to the physical structure known as The Bridge End Dairy Company.  You then left The Bridge End Dairy Company without the lawnmower and perhaps regret that decision.  This is hypothetical, because all lawnmowers are stolen from the Cheese Factory by local hooligans.  Saying "I left the lawnmower at the cheese factory" is the functional equivalent of saying "I no longer own a lawnmower".  

Distinguishing between "The Cheese Factory" and "The Bridge End Dairy Company" may seem like an act of genius, but it causes a whole host of problems. Asking someone if they want to spend the weekend at the Cheese Factory is often greeted with puzzled looks.  Asking someone if they want to spend the weekend at the Bridge End Dairy Company will also garner puzzled looks, and doesn't really make any sense if you're talking about the band, which is my point: it doesn't make any sense.

For the sake of clarity, "The Bridge End Dairy Company" always refers to the band and "The Cheese Factory" always refers to the structure that once housed cheese producing equipment.

One fact about the Bridge End Dairy Company that's often overlooked is no one really knows exactly who's in it. It's pretty easy to know who's in the Cheese Factory, all you have to do is call out "Who's in there?" and they will likely respond, unless they are lawnmower thieves trying to hide their presence.  On the other hand, calling out "Who's in there" to the Bridge End Dairy Company is meaningless.  If I called out "Who's in there" at The Flying Burrito Brothers, what would I be doing?  Not much.

Another interesting fact about the Cheese Factory is that it really exists.  Here's why: The Cheese Factory is perfect.  The Cheese Factory could not be perfect if it didn't exist.  Therefore it must exist.  The Bridge End Dairy Company also exists, but isn't perfect, which is strange.
