WOD Winner
 
Unfortunately I only got two defintions for my WOD.  Both were good, but  Ed is the winner with:
 
 

There is a small island off of the southern tip of Chile and Argentina in the Drake Passage where a peculiar little bird nests. This bird is called the liri. The liri is known for the vat amount of guano that it produces, about four times its own body weight every day. This guano is rich in phosphates and thus makes a great fertilizer. This fertilizer is known as liripoop.

 
 
The actual definiton is:
 
Lir�i`poop   Pronunciation: lĭr�ĭ`pŌp
n. 1. A pendent part of the old clerical tippet; afterwards, a tippet; a scarf; - worn also by doctors, learned men, etc.
2. Acuteness; smartness; also, a smart trick or stratagem.
3. A silly person.
A liripoop, vel lerripoop, a silly, empty creature; an old dotard.
 
Thanks for playing,
