A very short list this time. Here are 9 definitions for PILCOCHIA, one of which came from a respectable dictionary.
Vote for your two favorites by replying to this message no later tan 5 PM, EDT, Monday, September 21.

1.  a children’s game played in the highlands of Bolivia and Peru similar
to handball, perhaps derived from pre-Colombian ball games.

2.  trade name for a home-bake bread mix that may not have the word bread
in the name in the EU because its content of chia seeds exceeds 10%.

3.  a small mammal of the raccoon family, Bassaricyon neblina, resembling
a long-tailed, slender domestic cat with a bearlike face, inhabiting
the mountainous forests of Ecuador and Colombia. Its identification
in 2013 marked the Western Hemisphere’s first new carnivorous mammal
species since 1978.

4.  a kind of very small bat.

5.  [Nrf.] a thrashing.

6.  downy leaved tea plant [_camellia pilosus_]

7.  a functional disorder of the sweat glands characterised by more or
less sweating and an offensive odor.

8.  thin dry scales or scabs on the body.

9.  abnormal dryness of the hair.

I'll go with these (even though they weren't my first choice...and I'll probably be sorry that I changed my mind!):

2 for chia pets and 5 for nerf battles.  That is what [Nrf.] means, right?
