Logjam is a word coined in Canada. The timber industry float thousands of cut logs down rivers; the cheapest and most efficient way to transport them. Logs will naturally follow the line of the river and be in line with it. A logjam occurs when too many logs try to get through a narrows at the same time or when logs turn sideways in the river after hitting a bank or rock etc causing the following logs to become tangled up. The word has come to mean any blockage to the normal flow; be it data, information, luggage or anything at all.

logjam is also one of the rides in enchanted kingdom
