Its name comes from combining the word for its home (the garbage scow) and rumors of the frontal lobotomy operation it received in the late 1940's. caponier Copy Link to Clipboard Share Post on Facebook Share Post on Twitter Entire Thread Subject Posted By Posted The night of the return of the Worthless Monsters musick 10/27/2006 7:37 PM Re: The night of the return of the Worthless Monsters consuelo 10/30/2006 11:03 AM kankedort Alex Williams 10/30/2006 1:33 PM lobscouse musick 11/02/2006 4:46 PM Re: caponier tsuwm 11/02/2006 5:05 PM Re: caponier BranShea 11/02/2006 6:50 PM Re: caponier Alex Williams 11/02/2006 8:08 PM Re: caponier BranShea 11/03/2006 10:58 AM Re: Cephalaspidomorph Faldage 11/03/2006 11:04 AM Re: Cephalaspidomorph BranShea 11/03/2006 12:35 PM congou AnnaStrophic 11/03/2006 12:46 PM Re: congou Alex Williams 11/03/2006 1:11 PM Glisk musick 11/03/2006 5:49 PM vilipend Sparteye 11/07/2006 2:57 AM Re: vilipend Zed 11/11/2006 12:20 AM Moderated by  Jackie  Hop To General Topics ------  Information and announcements  Q&A about words  Wordplay and fun  Words and languages in schools  Miscellany  Weekly Themes  Looking for (writers, speakers,...
