Actually, it was 30 seconds!

Just thought I'd bring this back up to the top of the page. It was getting a little musthy down where it was.

OK, Hab, I can take a hint! Here are the daffynitions, and the correct one:
1. It's the English word for Edelfäule, the "noble rot" mold that afflicts the Riesling wine grape to such divine gustatory effect. Froeschlein's daffynition.
2. Camel dung, dried and used as a building material for insulating walls and roofs. Bob Hale's
3. To keep repeating arnie, I say, arnie, yes, arnie
4. A paste made of elephant urine and powdered desert shale, used to patch houses in southern India. Jo's concoction
5. (Middle English) used for cleaning debris or blood from a Knight's sword after battle. Haberdashed this one off
6. A state or condition of violent, destructive frenzy occurring periodically in bull elephants, accompanied by the secretion of an oily substance from glands located on the head. Y'all know about this by now!
7. small fibrous fruit, part of the persimmon family. Caterwauller's
8. A river in Budapest. Kalleh, up the creek as usual This message has been edited. Last edited by: <Asa Lovejoy>,

Lucky 7! Sounds diminutive enough to be just right. After all, if there can be an ugli, surely there can be a musth!

# 4 is just so gross that I musth pick it!

Once again, not the first idea. I'll take 7. (Though 6 is the favourite in the betting)

It's 6, and I've got the elephant urges to prove it!

Welcome to the board, H.H . . . umm . . . you have some sort of oil on your head.

Wow! There are a lot of you who know something about horny elephants! Not sure what to make of that...
#6 was the correct answer, but not the whole story. See this article from South Africa. You women will surely be relieved that you're NOT a cow elephant after reading about "GP syndrome" about 3/4 through the article! http://www.und.ac.za/und/lesci/elephant/musth.htm
