Thank you Osomatic! ~ James

Ooo! Ooo! It's my definition! I am terribly pleased. And I also got to make the first verboticism, despite not knowing that today would be the day of my first definition! I am doubly pleased. It is a red letter Verbotomy day.

Hey Osomatic, Great definition, and "helloops" is a great word to describe it! ~ James
