At first I assumed that the "ing" ending made it so it had to be a verb
and then realized that it could fall in line with such nouns as
"scaffolding" or "moulding". I'm sending out a line from the Knicks
group because I think that some of these groups could provide creative
and potentially useful responses to a question that has been troubling
me all year. What exactly is Channing or a Channing?

Your responses are appreciated.

I'm going to go with the verb definition "carrying your team through 25
minutes of a basketball game".

Its a state of being an old haint of a woman
of moderate talent who dresses like a drag
queen, makes a living off of one song and may
or may not have, as of yet, thrown off her
mortal coil.

there had to be a gay man singing Carol Channing.

What was a gay man doing in a lesbian bar? The same thing
I was, I guess. Feeling fabulous!

Well, based on this, I'm going say Channing is the antonym of
Chandlering.
