[Dixonary] Round 1877: New Word LYSSOPHOBIA

[JohnnyB]

Folks

The Word for this round is

***********
* *
* LYSSOPHOBIA *
* *
***********

As usual, no indication of capitalisation or otherwise is implied.

New players are welcome. Don't look in a dictionary. If you know the word, let me know soon, by email (if too many people know it,
we'll pick another word).

Think up a creative, intriguing, funny or genuine looking definition that will entice your fellow players to vote for it. Send it BY
EMAIL (not as a public forum message) to me, <bonnyjars (AT) yahoo (DOT) co.uk> or <john.barrs (AT) ntlworld (DOT) com> before the deadline...

21:00 British Time 24 Jan 2008
which is 24:00 for points east of me like Moscow and Bagdhad
17:00 EastCoast USA
14:00 WestCoast USA
.... or thereabouts


Full rules, if you're curious, are in the files area of the GoogleGroups Dixonary site http://tinyurl.com/2jqy9q or the sticky
messages at tapcis.com in The Parlor

Backwards, it spells "aibohpossyl," the rare flightless booby of the
Galapogos Islands. (Can I say "booby" without getting into trouble?
Can I say "possyl"?)

<The preceding comedy routing was preformed before a feline studio
audience, who did not laugh at a single joke, fell asleep during the
show, and woke up with a puffy-tail "Yow!" when the drummer hit a
rimshot.>

[France International]

Possylbly.
