Default [Dixonary] Rd. 2866: Vote for Ottavino!

Hi all,

Crossing fingers that all is well in this posting after having fat fingered
at least three things in the progress posting. We have 12 definitions for
ottavino, one of which is real, all of which are pretty darned clever.
Please post your votes here for the two you think express ottavino most
accurately. New players welcome to vote.

Deadline to vote is being extended a bit because I have an evening meeting
tomorrow. So please vote by 10 p.m. EST (9 CST) Wednesday January 24 which
means, I'm told, 3 a.m. GMT Thursday January 24. Please use
timeanddate.com to figure out your time zone if needed.

And may the best player "win"!

Nancy
