[—Keith Hale—]

The new word for round 2225 is:


•
•••
••••• ZHO
•••
•



As usual, capitalisation is irrelevant. Don't peek in the dictionary, you
can join the game at any time.
If you already know the meaning of this word, please notify me as soon as
possible, and if there are too many DQs, i will pick a different word.

Otherwise, please send me your fake definition at
thoughtstorms (AT) gmail (DOT) combefore the deadline, which is

Sunday, July 24, at 6:00 AM, Central US (GMT-06:00) - or the equivalent in
your time zone.


Please note: I will be traveling or in meetings all day tomorrow (Saturday)
- so verifications will be unlikely until early Sunday morning. I'll be
dealing again without software assist ... please keep your eyes peeled for
anything i can clear up.

Thanks, and happy defining!

(that hybrid is actually called a zorse although I suppose that with the
parentage the other way round perhaps it would be called a hobra)

BTW: the hydrid between a duck and a pheasant is called a doesn't

Now you're reminding me of the days I spent plucking pheasants, plucking
pheasants, plucking pheasants.

I hate plucking birds. That's why I'm trying to perfect "shoot and release"
hunting.



It's not working, however.

I'm amused by the sponsored links this thread has produced on the
Google Groups website:
