In honor of the Bubbler thread - or inspired by the Bubbler thread - I thought it would be fun to exchange words and guess their meanings. Let's see who can come up with the best meaning for a word (true or not).
So either post a word for people to define, define one that's been posted, or vote for a best definition. (Remember to include what the word is in your post.) The first word is scree.

Yeah Muffy. That is a pirogue'. You need good balance to stay afloat in this type of boat.

I like that!
I know the definition, but I prefer to make them up instead. How about scree is the residue left behind after a barnacle has been removed from the hull of a boat.

Yeah, a pirogue' is a boat used in marshes and swamps down in louisiana. And a neutral ground is name we call a median (the ground between the highway). It originated a long time back when the city was seperated by the french and italian. It was the meeting spot, the neutral ground. And the name just stuck.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
