COMMENTS:
bogus. this is a noun form of my verb - paxualize. - Alchemist, 2006-12-23: 10:16:00
Bummer for you, Alchemist. I posted my word prior to yours. Yes my word is a noun but there is no restriction on that currently. So if you posted yours after me, perhaps it is your integrity that is in question? - danboaz, 2006-12-23: 22:16:00
Let's assume you did not peek and just call it as great minds thinking alike and share in the glory (or is it fools never differ). Let's face it we are just nerds playing a word game. - danboaz, 2006-12-23: 22:21:00
no one called you names. I think mine was postd first. in any event, your noun is a form of my verb. as in Verbotomy. - Alchemist, 2006-12-25: 08:04:00
I checked all entries after adding mine, in order to vote, and did not see yours at that time. If I am in error, apologies, and happy holidaze. - Alchemist, 2006-12-25: 08:07:00
No harm or foul, and you are right you did not call names. they are both great words, and the same just different forms. Cheers to us and a good New year to you - danboaz, 2006-12-25: 21:20:00
