Natty: swarming with gnats, or to be covered in gnats. Buggy. Scrappy should keep her mouth shut while driving the Harley, lest her smile become natty.

Hi Grrlpower "HYBRID" This is a tough one... I think that this is how Lucy Lawless would sound saying hello to me in her thick Kiwi accent...you know..."Hi Brad". Here's another..."Hy" denoting water, and "Brid" -having to do with a horse bridle. "Hybrid" is a water filled horse-bridle. Define: "Antidisestablishmentarianism"...

These words are getting hard. I am going to put the real definition on it, as well. Feel free to help my education with the real meaning at any time.
reviviscence-the act of state of being revived. example-Gams crashed and Superman helped her reviviscence. (I hope that is right).
My definition:The scent of doing a vivi la France revival over and over.

OMG, GP. I just have to say that you are beating me to these....with nearly the same answers. Was thinking of the Marlon Brando "Stellar" yell, and been singing, "I'm your Venus, I'm your fire. What's your desire", for the last five minutes, (not Blue Man Group though, and I can't think of who originally sang it).

Shocking Blue does sing Venus...but it was also done by Bananrama...Maybe that was the verson you were singing. I was listening to it myself. Sounds like there is mystical connection on the boards tonight. Watch out though for I don't want to send my germies onto the boards as well...
Rigorous: A term used by forensic scientists andf CSI junkies. The body died and rigorous set it causing the body parts to stiffen...It was a fast and grueling task to get those body parts to relax

Did some other band record this? I was thinking maybe a late sixties or early seventies group, but could find nothing on the Internet except Bananarama and Shocking Blue. Dang, I'm sure the song was much older....maybe, uhm...it is I who is much older.
Nah.
We need a word.
How about....

Ahem....aren't you all supposed to post your own defination of the word, and not question the actual defination, Scrappy? Nice of you to post the link, though, Joxie.
Now excuse me while I go find something to appease my voluptuary, sybritic nature. Hhmm.....
Day off, and it happens I've a lot of laundry to do, but damn, Hubs is at work. I wonder what the Maytag repairman is doing today?

ethology - the study of Ethel Mertz's moral character; why was she really Lucy's sidekick? Was she after Ricky? Or something else? Perhaps just in it for the chocolate; the out-of-control conveyor belt being a well-thought out cover-up for her real motives. Leading ethologists are studying these and other urgent questions; uncovering new clues each day which, hopefully, will eventually solve this universally important mystery.

Put together it is an important part of a presidential speech...If you don't know what you are saying just say it loudly with frantic hand and body gestures which causes the listeners to pay attention and believe whatever campaign promise that is made.

Reflection: a mirrored image which staring at too long or hard causes a condition referred to as reflectionitis. Some of the most noticable people afflicted by this disease were Narcissus, Snow White's wicked stepmother, and Diana Ross, who woke up one day, looked in the mirror, and starting wailing "Reflections of the way we used to be" after noticing she was not the Supreme being she thought she once was.

preponderance: A place in time before intellegent thinking. In most cases referring to the 50's Back when people felt that anyone that was different from themselves...people in power and control...ie... (not male white and economically ambitious) could not be the same species let alone equals to the supremeness of human nature.
What a preponderance to think that people aren't all the same in every generation never evolving either in a good way or bad as the conditions of life and living change...
