One thing puzzles me: the word was posted with the hint4 that it was encountered on a TV program. What kind of TV program could have included this word, if [number] is the correct definition? I like M for most convincing, but I have to vote for D as most likely right. Edited by wofahulicodoc (09/08/12 08:09 AM) Edit Reason: Okay, okay, "[letter] is..."

So I think I'll go with M Top #207056 - 09/09/12 12:25 PM Re: Time out for Hogwash GIGIL Daffy's [Re: Candy] LukeJavan8 Carpal Tunnel Registered: 06/23/08 Posts: 5300 Loc: Land of the Flat Water Originally Posted By: Candy Thanks guys...I have have noted the votes and enjoyed the discussion.
