cockalorum -A self-important little man
We have had wonderful definitions such as
coca-cola + rum booze, :-)) yummy
roosters get together to have a meeting
When you see a cockroach and you RUM (run)
a cockroach that loves rum,
you gain weight if you drink rum with cockroaches,
the recognition somebody gets for having a great rooster,
�Cockalorum!� = �Last orders, please!�,  witty!
a slang for a place where people often get together,
get-up-and-go/vigorous energy/potency
The winner is: Apodo
It �s a word used when you see a marine
creature at the beach and you �re not sure what it is, maybe a cockle
shell.... and you say: It �s a cockle or...um...???
CONGRATULATIONS to all participants! Your definitions were amazing!
