Wonderful word and sentence. I suspect you and Banky (Maltruist) will be taking it away today. - ErWenn, 2008-02-07: 10:18:00

I guess the "milk of human kindness" has turned sour! Perhaps, also, the 'milk and honey route' is closed for repair! Top sentence and word. - OZZIEBOB, 2008-02-07: 18:13:00

nice, me jumped when I saw word - purpleman, 2008-02-07: 20:41:00

Had fun with your definition today, purpleman! A rose for your good cartoon, James! (an aside for pupleman and Stevenson about a past verbot: You both noted that beefcant got votes but no comments. It was because most of the compliments I thought turned my face red! If you care to go back and take a look, I'm tickled pink to tell you I finally came up with one I could post!)
