OK, OK, since I don't know a sennight from a hebdomadal deadline I'll send my definition in tonight, but first a question...What has Valley Girl Memorial got to do with this contest? Is it a clue?

Valley Girl Memorial™ has absolutely nothing to do with our word and absolutely everything to do with caradea, to whom we owe any thanks that manifest for this particular round of hogwash.

tsuwm! Wait!

I'll send you a definition by tonight. Please don't post the quiz till tonight, ok? A sennight is seven days, yes?

WW, who just remembered the quiz

Edit P.S. Oh, whew! I just saw that you posted this on the 7th. Still a few days to go. Relief!

Be warned fair Wordworthy, tsuwm has now suwm to the deep end of the word pool. In his delirium he thinks that all those dusty, moth eaten, worthless words he has collected now have worth. Don't be surprised if this Vally Girl Hogwash game ends and mr tsuwm announces the results in worthless and then none of us can figure out who won.

But we must be kind, his remplissage is but a symptom of his impubic autophilia.

p.s. - WW, you had better hasten!
