Pronunciation: mak arth ur park in sons

Sentence: Out for a walk in Mac Arthur Park, Phoebe tried to forget about the lovely cake she had just made. Although it took so long to bake it, her brother had destroyed it. He was not well and had macarthurparkinsoned the hapless confection. Melting in the dark, all the sweet green icing flowing down...those lyrics made as little sense to him as this does to us...

Etymology: MacArthur Park (song by Jimmy Webb) & Parkinson's Disease (a degenerative disorder of the central nervous system characterized by tremor and impaired muscular coordination)

Sweet use of that "someone left the cake out in the rain" song!
