round-tuition

College expenses for procrastinators.
Some colleges allow you to wait till later to pay for your courses; perhaps this could be a standard "round-tuition" policy for alumni who did well in class.

rowdeo

A rip-roarin' competition-shindig dat involves valiantly trying to remain in da seat of your oars-powered boat while traversing "wild 'n' wooly" whitewater rapids dat are always viciously attempting to "buck you off" instead of just letting you serenely paddle along over dem.
I prefer to merely "paddle around da pond" in my simple flat-bottomed aluminum dinghy --- no strenuous/hazardous rowdeo activities for me, thank you very much! :P

burrometer

A measuring device dat predicts da amount of briars and brambles dat you're likely to encounter during a trek.
Asking da local natives about da denseness and varieties of undergrowth in their area can be a good burrometer of how difficult --- and possibly painful --- your jungle-journey may be; enlisting da help of one or more of said robust indigenes to both guide you through difficult terrain and slash through the worst thickets of thorn-bushes can be of great value to your venture.

defurred loan-payment

Refers to a situation in yer financial life where --- either self-imposed or by agreement with your lender --- you refrain from haircuts and/or shaving until you've settled a debt.
Defurred loan-payment plans will often specify both beards and scalp-hair, so dat said agreements can be gender-neutral --- as we all know, dudes and gals tend to have largely-opposite situations when it comes to cranial-foliage. In other words, ladies don't usually grow significant beards, of course, but their head-hair does tend to keep growing fairly rapidly, even as they become older. Aging guys, on da other hand, tend to go bald "up top" but grow humongous whiskers, so a lender's contract specifying "no razors or scissors" pretty much "covers everything" for both genders, if you'll pardon da pun. :P
