Word of the Day - 11/6/07

Posted Tuesday, November 06, 2007 11:12 AM by Joe Napalm

Yesterday's word was "fenks". From Mrs. Byrne's Dictionary: "Fenks, n. pl. -- leftover whale blubber used as manure." That's obscure, huh?

So, check yesterday's comments and you'll see that no one gets a virtual pistol wink. Too tough? Maybe. Although, you do find out quickly who the cheaters are -- *cough*Fluffy Cow*cough*.

Today's word is a bit more pleasant: Deosculate.

Update: Star Dust's mom gets major props for her definition of yesterday's word. Man, she would be tough at a game of Balderdash. I was sold.

It seems that I have committed a crime so heinous, that Joe is not willing to talk to me...  I am so ashamed.  I will not continue to assert my position that IT WAS NEVER STATED TO NOT LOOK UP THE ANSWERS, and only humbly beg pardon like a gentlecow.

Please, dear sir, accept my most sin"steer" apologies for desecrating your post in such fashion.  I cannot bear to be shunned from your enlightenment any longer.  I beg of you, if there is any way (within reason) to make amends, allow me the oppertunity to do so.

Your loyal steeplecow,

Fluffy

Did Fluffy Cow look it up again?  (she said she didn't)  But the answer looks very close to what I saw when I looked it ... I mean ... learned it years ago
