[Dixonary] RD 2890: Defs up for TAW

Hi all,

Sorry for the delay posting this, although I did warn you that today might
be a problem for me. I am only about seven hours late...today turned out
to be a bigger problem than I expected.

At any rate, here are 13 great definitions for one of the "other" meanings
of taw. Send me your two votes by:

10 p.m. EDT Monday April 30, which is 2 a.m. GMT Tuesday May 1.

Happy voting!
