Default [Dixonary] Round 2942 - word announcement: _ullage_

Barring too many DQs (disqualifications) the new word for round 2942 shall
be:


• • •
• • • • • ULLAGE
• • •


As usual, capitalisation is irrelevant. Please don't peek in the
dictionary, you can join the game at any time.
If you already know the meaning of this word, please notify me as soon as
possible, and if there are too many DQs, i will pick a different word.

Otherwise, please send me your fake definition _in_a_new_email_ (not a
reply!) to thoughtstorms (AT) gmail (DOT) com before the deadline, which is

Tuesday, 27 November (2018 CE), at 06:00 PM, Central US
(aka Texas Time) - or the equivalent in your time zone.

As always, i will be dealing without software assist --- on a (virus'd up)
5 inch smart-phone, no less --- so please do keep your eyes peeled for
anything that i can try to clear up!

Thanks, and happy defining!
-kEITH-

Keith,

Unfortunately, I know this word well from my days as a rocket scientist. I'll send you a def by tomorrow afternoon if it stands, though.

Actually, I was. My PhD is from MIT’s Aeronautics and Astronautics department. I didn’t practice it much after that, though. I just tend to refer to complex things as brain surgery, not rocket science, because I know rocket science ain’t all that hard.

Yes, while i "day-sleep'd" many "dairy queens" were sent in. I'll have a
new word soonest possible!

Very cool on the rocket science. My dictionary def - which i really was
going to include - was about wine and the missing portions thereof.

Interesting, as soon as you mentioned wine, I realised that I know the Def
and would have probably had to DQ later.

Efrem Mallach: "I just tend to refer to complex things as brain surgery,
not rocket science, because I know rocket science ain’t all that hard."

Ha! Kind of a funny story, here.

My second oldest daughter had to have surgery for what turned out to be a
Glioblastoma, the thing that ultimately got John McCain. Everybody else
that was there for her cleared off just before they were ready to take her
into the OR. I took her hand and asked something really profound like, "You
okay?" (What a dad, eh?)

"I don't know," she said. "You know how whenever people want to say that
something is not all that complicated they say," It's NOT brain surgery?
Well, this is brain surgery."

And we both had a big laugh. She was quite a girl.
