[Dixonary] Round 2349 LABRYINTH Results

[Steve Graham]

Submitted with the usual fear and trepidation.

As nailed by five members (at least there were no DQs) "labryinth" refers to
fish with air sacs. I didn't find it in a dictionary, but I did find it in a
number of icthyological references, including Wikipedia
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Respiration_organ> . For those interested, I
came across the word when researching why late-season Canadian walleye (they
call them pickerel up there) have bursting air sacs when brought to the
surface from depths over 35 feet or so.

Unless I have committed a grievous error, that makes Tim Bourne the next
dealer whose chung in teak definition attracted five natural votes.

Congratulations, Tim.
