Found somewhere in the dictionary between finks and firn is:

*** FIPPLE ***

Please send me your fabulous, fanciful, fictitious, fairy-tale, fabricated, false, fantastical, forged, fabled, far fetched, fraudulent, flimflam, feigned, fanatical, and figmental fake definitions for FIPPLE by email to widdis (at) dixonary (dot) net.

Given the upcoming long holiday weekend in the US and the traditional travel and holiday gatherings associated with Thanksgiving, I'm setting an extended deadline of just under 44 hours.  Specifically, the deadline will be at the official start of the Christmas Season, which occurs when Santa Claus passes the broadcasting booth of the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. I will watch said parade, and then assemble the definitions for voting.

For those of you who don't watch the parade, the approximate time of this event is at noon EST (9am PST) on Thursday, November 27.  That's 17:00 UTC or 5pm GMT, 6PM CET, and 6am Friday in New Zealand.
