Default RE: [Dixonary] GRUFE definitions

I debated over whether to submit a noun or a verb, so I think I'll take one of each:

4. (Sc.) to rain or snow heavily
7. thin metal strips placed around unlaid stone elements

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

I sent my definition to collect147 at gmail.com, but it did not make the
list.

Anyway, I vote for 3 and 6 this time.

Tumble outta bed
And I stumble to the kitchen
Pour myself a cup of ambition
And yawn and stretch
And try to come to life
Jump in the shower
And the blood starts pumpin'
Out on the street
The traffic starts jumpin'
The folks like me on the job from 9 to 5

I guess my eyesight is going. I read that as collect147. But I didn't get
a bounceback, so somebody else must have gotten my def.
