DIRTY TOPI TORPIDITY and the poisoned-arrow maker said TRY INEES Did you know that COTTON PALES INN makes CONSTANTINOPLE? But that's too far off to be what you had in mind with our now-lost COTTON PALES. Edit: Got it. You meant PENTACOSTAL but you gave us two Os instead of two As. 'Swonderful what a couple of days not-thinking of a problem, plus a fresh review of the data, will do for your mental clarity :-) | |||

No, actually I see on Google there are thousands of hits for MOSH POT, and even a bumch for MOSHPOT as one word. (Live and learn!) So you're duty-bound to do the next word, whether you meant to be or not! | |||

I'm not sure anyone other than Brits and Harry Potter fans will think of SNOGGING ! [Edit: Apologies. Also Austin Powers fans, I find. One of which I am clearly not.] In certain more refined circles it's referred to as SOUL ACTION . | |||

SOUL ACTION I've never seen Austin Powers, and don't wish to do so... But isn't SNOGGING a great word....?? Kiss Kiss osculation Need more grass on your behind? ARSE TURFING | |||

I know the word thanks to a book by Louise Rennison called "Angus, Thongs and Full-frontal Snogging" which is a delightful read. The sequel is something about being the girlfriend of a sex god. Books can teach us so much! I bet many young people today know what it takes to TRANSFIGURE because of Harry Potter! I don't know how to even find out about DOPEY CAN LICE . . . guess I'll look it up. ******* "Happiness is not something ready made. It comes from your own actions. ~Dalai Lama | |||
