Reevalumate
Created by: mrskellyscl
Pronunciation: re-eval-u-mate
Sentence: (no offense to Bob Dylan) It is not a benefit to be seated and speculate a reason, attractive young woman. It serves no useful purpose in any case. No, it is not advantageous to rest with your back and buttocks on a chair and ponder a cause for this event, young child or innocent, if you're not cognizant of it at this particular time. When the male domestic fowl makes noise in the early morning, gaze out of your window and I will have left the premises. It is because of you that I must continue to move to another place with a suitcase or some other means of carrying my belongings. Do not reevalumate, it is satisfactory.

Today's definition was inspired by Bob Dylan's new song "My Wife's Home Town", one of may favorites on his new album. Apparently his wife is from Hell, and has one heck of an evil eye. Couldn't help but wonder what she thinks of this song ~ James

Great Idea James :) I enjoyed that and seeing the twitter area. I also added this site to StumbleUpon.com to bring more traffic and fresh faces for new voting based on merit, not on popularity or cheating like some do...I love it here! :)~ Deb

Fun with Dylan...thanks for this new idea. I agree, I am glad to see fresh faces for new voting based on merit.....this will hopefully dilute any "clique" factors or cheating.
