I knew I was sunk from the start. The very first voter, Dick Weltz, led the
way by zeroing in on the real definition--#5, the horseshoe cleat--and five
others promptly fell into line behind him.

But even more of you, a total of eight, were drawn to #10, Chris Carson's
little cooking pot, and Chris is our next dealer. Jim Hart, with an
unnatural score of seven for his woody gumnut, #4, is the real winner.

Full details below, with apologies to all for the delayed posting.

Take it away, Chris!

Well, I've managed to do it again. An off hand quickie garners the
win. At least I'm in residence for at least the next few days. The
new word will be up tomorrow morning as soon as I can get my act
together at the office.
