An event, meeting,
happenstance, occasion or other occurrence that warrants a vague
reference or subtle deception when somebody asks about it. Often used during phone conversations when one person is in a place they shouldn't be.
"Where were you last night? I called you like,
I don't know, 15 times!"
"Well, I had this whole schmagoola over at Lenny's place, and I couldn't tear myself away from it, babe, y'know?"
or
"Yeh, ma, it's fine... No, just another one of their schmagoolas, nothing in
particular, some
wine and cheese, the usual pack of twead-coated sycophants" (He's actually at a strip club doing lines in the bathroom)
