Default [Dixonary] ROUND 2974 - QUATCH - VOTE NOW!

Here are 14 definitions for the word QUATCH...but only one is correct. Please send your votes (by responding to this email) for what you believe are two definitions most likely to have come from a dictionary. The deadline for voting is Wednesday, April 10, at 9 a.m. EDT. As usual, I will let you determine the time in your time zone. :-)

Any misspellings, weird spacing, etc., are my fault and not an indication of the accuracy of a particular definition.

Good luck!


1. A longitudinal cut from the trunk of a tree.
2. A knot of hair, as at the back of a wig.
3. [Yiddish] an unsuitable partner of any sort, but especially in business.
4. State of being overpowered by fatigue.
5. A ceremonial fur robe worn by tribal leaders in NW U.S. and SW Canada.
6. Any of a series of lines on the surface of a crystal.
7. The rich greasy voice of a fat person [made up by Frank Herbert in "Dune"].
8. [Colloq. Derog.] a dwarf.
9. A schemer or con artist.
10. A word; a sound.
11. To loom or lurk
12. A hook for preventing vibration in the section of a piano string between the pin and the bridge.
13. The sloping half-roof at the side of a Real Tennis court.
14. A loner; a solitary person.

People often post that they chose from the last few definitions to prove they read them all. I don't think it proves that, since they could have started from the end of the list. So, while making no claim of diligence, I vote for 12 and 14.

When you mention people who don't read at all,are you referring to the
dart board method of voting, or the fact that there are people in our
country and possibly in yours too, there are people who cannot read.
Probably not the latter because those people would not be playing this game.

Guerri

the futility of human thinking always amazes me.

Sadly, there are people who cannot read at all. Sadly there are people
who while they can read cannot read the dominant language of the country
in which they live. Sadly there are people who cannot read (and here I
include understand) anyone whose viewpoint is not their own. Sadly there
are people who can no longer be bothered to read important things about
their culture. There are also people who cannot read the productions of
a particular subculture within their own culture - here I am thinking
about scientific and artistic illiteracy as well as political illiteracy.

Finally I come to the game:* if any cap fits, then wear it

I designed a roulette wheel so all I have to do is write down the numbers
it lands on.

*This life is temporary. This life is short. When this life is over, our
bodies will die and become empty shells, but our souls will continue to
live forever. Where will the “real you” live? Will you live for all

God in heaven? Learn more so you can make your most important decision:
