winner word of the weekend
 
sometimes quality is more important than quantity...There weren �t many entrees for the Word of the day game this time but the ones that were posted were excellent.
After a clever analysis, Lynne came to the conclusion that obdurate refers to doormat-like people. Iciar sugested is was a verb to indicate sailing on the very long Ob River and Ed taught me that many famous people were born on the same day (I checked!!).
There can of course be only one winner and I chose sarguero �s definition:
�obdurate � is an everlasting tampon (of a well-known brand)
 
The real meaning of �obdurate � is of course �stubborn � or �obstinate �
 
Thank you all for playing, Sarguero it �s up to you to post a new word!! have fun!
