The Peregrine Falcon has a pair o' blue wings,
It's a bird-eating raptor, among other things.
389 K is its very top speed,
And it has a moustache. Which it doesn't need.

And it's sexually dimorphic, Big Momma.

Define: dimorphic

No, Mr MistyCat the Elderly just felt like a change of definition type. Old word defined, new word added.

But, you're right. I shall return to normal conventions forthwith, or possibly a tad later.

Dimorphic: someone with an irrational hatred of brown plasticine - most likely named Chas.

Define plasticine

:-) Unless there's something wrong with my computer, definitions belong in the "define that word! immediately!" thread. This is the game goes ever on thread, whereby somebody puts down the first half of a well known (or not so well known) saying or jingle and the next person completes it with half another well known saying or jingle (or complete gibberish).

Thanks, Lymond. You were right first time, but I was distracted by the need to order some kids off my lawn.

Mr MistyCat the Elderly has now resumed taking his meds, seen the error of his ways, and is presently considering how to recover gracefully.
On the other hand, I've never been graceful.

CannibalRabbit, I've re-requested your definition in the correct place, which (as any idiot knows (Proof: I now know it)) is the "Define that Word" thread.
