I'm abstaining because my definition was too close either to the real thing or another definition or both (not sure which).

How do you know? Did you get red-carded?

No, but I thought that was the simplest way to go, rather than submitting another definition.

This is a bit of a punishment for being good it seems to me.
Maybe we should hold a meeting about the 4th rule.
(I mean, come on the Pook, you sure make good ones by the dozen)

1. I was asked if I wanted to resubmit, but chose not to - it's not the fault of the rules or the hogmaster. I just felt that I probably know the meaning or can work it out so it wouldn't be fair if I play this one.
2. I beg to differ Branshea - the sum total of my definitions so far is... ah, let's see, that would be... (counts on fingers)...exactly one! \:D
