This word has exactly 100 letters :D and was used by James Joyce in the third paragraph of his well known novel, Finnegan's Wake. I have no idea what it is supposed to mean, and I guess you'd have to have read the novel to have even the faintest idea as to what Joyce was on about.


I was going to use: Lopadotemachoselachogaleokranioleipsanodrimhypotri mmatosil
phioparaomelitokatakaechymenokichlepikossyphophatt operister
alektryonoptekephalliokigklopeleiolagoiosiraiobaph etraganopterygon
(with 184 letters) but I didn't think anybody would take it seriously. :8}

(n.) - A goulash composed of the leftovers from the meals of the
last two weeks! (from Aristophanes' "The Ecclesiazusae")

I've got no idea how you pronounce it, and I'm not sure I'd want to eat it either.

Cheers

Thanks to Susan too, for filling in for me on
a couple of occasions.:)

Aroc obviously needs to settle down, or perhaps he's on some grade A heroin.

It seems Aroc hasn't read the rules lately. I mean we've put up with this needless abusive rubbish long enough haven't we?

Find something constructive to say Aroc or the thought police will come get you.
