implied door-knock

Refers to when you make friendly eye-contact with one or more occupants of a neighboring dwelling, and thus you do not have to actually knock on their door to make it acceptable for you to go on in.

My neighbors down the street have known me for decades and have always welcomed me in to "shoot da breeze for a few"; they often hang out around the dinner-table in their large-glass-windowed kitchen, anyway, and so they can easily notice me as I amble up the front walk. So I always just watch for them to glance up and give me affable nods as I near their glass storm-door; this is my implied door-knock, and so I know that I can just stroll right on in and sit down with them.

mullitarry

An armed-forces organization dat practices da infamous "hurry up and wait" scenario a lot, particularly da latter part --- da unfortunate troops often hafta lounge around in bored distress for long intervals while their indolent superiors take their sweet ol' time to think over their battalion's next moves.

Any province or country with a mullitarry usually has shops and stores well-stocked with folding aluminum chairs, since da nation's soldiers require a steady supply of said legs-and-back-relieving implements to purchase and carry around wif dem, ready to break out and sit in during frequent and extended periods of inactivity.

screwba diving

Refers to where two aqualung-wearers "take da plunge" and have underwater sex.

Tiffany and I wanted to try screwba diving for da first time, but da water was so cold dat I couldn't "get it up" once we got below da surface. Guess we'll hafta wait for warmer weather to give it another shot.

neighborhood

A community of horses. Mighty noisy at feeding time.

Mr. Rogers' friendly peaceable neighborhood is comprised of kind helpful interesting humans; I'd be more than happy to be his neighbor. Mr. Ed, on the other hand --- or rather, on the other HOOF --- has his own "neigh"-borhood which I'm sure is equally pleasant and cheerful, but it's entirely made up of "equine" citizens, and as mayor, "The Big E" is obliged to haul the ponderous creaky ol' hay-'n'-oats cart around to each and every house three times a day to deliver his four-legged friends' breakfast, lunch, and supper rations. A real **drag** (pun intended), but somebody's gotta do it.

C.P.R.

Coughing Poop Release. Refers to a self-administered emergency technique when unable to poop normally; somewhat similar to the Heimlich maneuver, it involves coughing vigorously to dislodge and eject the organic object clogging the bodily orifice.

I was mildly constipated, so I used C.P.R. to help me eliminate.

cygneture

An inky webbed-foot print made by the young Louie Trumpeter or The Ugly Duckling when rubber-stamping his "John Hancock" onto an important document. Can also loosely refer to the line of cute little footprints left by a baby swan as he waddles along the shore.

In "Corny Concerto", The Ugly Duckling encounters two separate "unique codes/representations of oneself" situations --- first, the rough raucous "QUAACCKKK, QUAACCKKK!" sound of his "audible signature" gratingly and obviously differentiates him from Mama Swan's "truly biological" trio's melodically-trilling cygnetures, and then the furiously-outraged Mama Swan leaves her own "signature" on The Ugly Duckling's behind when she tempestuously bunts him away off back up the stream.

anxzionty

Feelings of nervous uncertainty regarding "Kingdom of Heaven" matters.

I don't believe in establishment religion as a whole, so I don't ponder or worry about it in any way; I merely practice the Golden Rule and leave it at that --- no bouts of anxzionty for me, thank you very much!
