RE: [Dixonary] Round 2927 vote for NOWTERER
 
I failed to send a definition originally and don't recall receiving a reminder with the list of people who already sent definitions. <sigh>

Oh, well. Here are my votes for what seem like the most unlikely definitions:

8. a velvet waistcoat.
9. a cattle-keeper.

Judy

Today is the first day of the rest of your life.
