[Dixonary] Rd 2890: Results for TAW

Hi all,

A relatively well-distributed vote total for TAW, which I kind of expected,
since it could mean anything. The real definition was the classically
DIxonary definition, a paragon of vagueness: #7, to prepare or dress (some
raw material) for use or further manipulation. Also about curing white
leather, which made Johnny a DQ as per usual. I earned a respectable D3.

The next deal, though, goes to Tim Bourne, whose stream earned a runaway
(unnatural) 7. The real winnah is Mike Shefler and his canted angle with 4
unnatural votes.

So, do your thing, Tim. It's over for me, at least until next time.
