After reading this thread, I now win most of my "Words with friends" games. Alsomy tallywhacker is three inches longer, and I'm more regular.

Thank you Bruno.

You're such a prick! You made be Google "Alsomy" because I thought it was a word.

Context means everything.

Also, tallywhacker? Are you from the mountains?

...and? You didn't find this?

Alsomy
Definition: A sexual act undertaken with anyone having the moniker 'Al'.

No, I'm coastal. I just have a multi-purpose tool.

LOL! Edsomy came to mind.

Unfortunately, 'organosomy' doesn't have quite the same ring to it. Otherwise I'd be encouraging it (well, for females, anyway).

That's an odd tool to have... Or unique rather?

Most of us have dual purpose tools, such as this:

Well, I'll let you go ahead and use a leather-man for a tallywhacker. I know I'm not too keen.

Kowtow

http://www.myelomabeacon.com/headline/2012/05/01/seans-burgundy-thread-are-you-listening/

While there will be times in my ongoing struggles with myeloma and life in general, I don't have to kowtow to the lunacy that sometimes abounds.

http://english.ahram.org.eg/NewsContentP/4/40557/Opinion/Dont-shoot-the-jester.aspx

And if he is in any way punished, it had better be for his political position—not for failing to kowtow to the bearded inquisitors.

Numen

http://books.google.com/books?id=7qmAAAAAMAAJ&q=%22is+numen%22&dq=%22is+numen%22&hl=en&sa=X&ei=yIiiT77rB4Xq8wSd7ID5CA&ved=0CC0Q6AEwADgU

A simple way of representing this hierarchy is a pyramid. Each contour is numen from the point of view of the contour below, and gaudens in comparison with that above.

http://books.google.com/books?id=-MFVEhw9hS8C&pg=PA65&dq=%22is+numen%22&hl=en&sa=X&ei=XYiiT5WCJ4GQ9QTOkfXUCA&ved=0CDMQ6AEwATgK#v=onepage&q=%22is%20numen%22&f=false

It is numen, a god- or witch-like power that asserts itself in the contrast between dark and light, night and day, sickness and health, power and powerlessness, vivisectionist and corpse on the operating table.

What did Seinfeld say when he walked into the ruins of an ancient Roman temple? NUMEN!!!!!

See, I can do crap jokes too.

I'm Cardinal Newman, and I laughed at this crappy joke.

Fulcrum

http://my.hsj.org/Schools/Newspaper/tabid/100/view/frontpage/articleid/520475/newspaperid/20/What_Wed_Do_Without_Our_Artifical_Hearts.aspx

Aren’t you just ripping at the seams with joyous ecstasy at having been born in time to witness the development of what has to be the most significant technological advance in the history of life on this planet since the wheel, the fulcrum, and indoor plumbing?

http://www.boston.com/ae/music/blogs/localmusic/2012/04/lights_camera_bad_girlsmusicia.html

Since it's opening in 2009, Cambridge's Oberon has been the of the fulcrum of Greater Boston's multi-media music scene.

Besot

It seemed to him that it was much more economical to dispose of it as they did, though the arrangement was besot with some little difficulty, and it was only reasonable that they should try and save £15000 out of the fire.

http://books.google.com/books?id=vn1HAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA114&dq=%22was+besot%22&hl=en&sa=X&ei=6h6lT__6E8LzggeC2rjcAQ&ved=0CDkQ6AEwAQ#v=onepage&q=%22was%20besot%22&f=false

Corbitant's village was besot, and some of his people were wounded. Squanto, the interpreter, who was supposed to have been killed, had, it turned out, suffered no harm.

“Derwood' was besot with a meddling mother-in-law.

Mensch

http://www.recordnet.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20120427/A_LIFE/204270303

Mostly, though, they'll celebrate the man they variously describe as "a nurturing teacher," "fantastic," "welcoming," and "a mensch."

http://www.jewishjournal.com/keepingthefaith/item/an_englishman_and_a_canadian_walk_into_a_bar_20120430/

He is a mensch and it shines through whether or not he goes to temple. He is not defined by being Jewish, he simply is Jewish.

Sudorific

Every sudorific hitherto employed had failed to produce this result upon a skin which horrible diseases had left impervious.

http://books.google.com/books?id=v5lUAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA553&dq=sudorific&hl=en&sa=X&ei=SvGnT4CQN8jqggfr_vGuAQ&ved=0CEwQ6AEwBA#v=onepage&q=sudorific&f=false

Its sudorific effects, when once begun, should be maintained by copious dilution with tepid fluids.

Pother

http://news.google.com/newspapers?id=K_o_AAAAIBAJ&sjid=m6QMAAAAIBAJ&pg=6888,3938131&dq=pother&hl=en

The pother, in final analysis, is to no avail, because the matter is not one chronic worries to decide.

http://www.timesunion.com/local/article/No-chairs-for-chitchat-DEC-workers-find-in-move-3509948.php

Cries of a chair crisis and parking pother are badly overblown, said Heather Groll, an Office of General services spokeswoman.

Cicatrix

Another class of affection and injuries of the nerves which are very troublesome, is when the nerve has not been cut off itself, but happens to get tied down in a cicatrix.

http://news.google.com/newspapers?id=5C8sAAAAIBAJ&sjid=1MoEAAAAIBAJ&pg=6981,2284870&dq=cicatrix&hl=en

Most Manhattan oldsters who try to main tain the pace after middle years have the unhealthy shine of a cicatrix.
