Starry, starry night. Paint your black eye blue and grey, Look out on a winter's day, And watch out for the tree trunk in the snow Shadows on the hills, Sketch the trees and the daffodils, Catch the breeze and the winter chills, In colors on the snowy linen land. - Jabberwocky, 2009-02-19: 10:37:00

Pronunciation: loo-muhn-fluhm-muhcs-t

Sentence: The moon was full when Brianne, President of the local Scooby Doo Fan Club, and Connie, the VP, parked their car at the bottom of the darkened hillside. The moon was full and, after a few tokes, they determined this was the night they would make it up the creepy drive to view the old Greymoor Mansion, rumoured to be haunted. It was a hike, but, just as they rounded the bend and caught sight of the enormous stone ediface, a cloud moved across the sky blocking the moon. They screamed and jumped, turning at the same time, intending to run full speed down the hill. Instead, their heads collided. Sitting on the ground, they stared, lumenflummoxed, at the stars circling their heads. "Out of sight," they in unison. The cloud moved on and the gods laughed.

Etymology: From LUMEN, for light +FLUMMOX, confused
