For those of you who read these 2 words (moppett and bada-bing ) have been added to the OED. Moppett means foolish---not sure what bada-bing means. Thi is the dictionary of record and lets take up a collection and get Sunaru in there. We will have to provide the defenition though. For that matter why isn't bada-bang in there. Is Sunatu a verb or a noun??? HAHA!!! Evil or Very Mad

I think "Sunaru" is an old ZZ TOP album but I could be wrong. It wouldnt be the first time. Now I am going to sleep before these good people in the net room lynch me . Actually Sunaru is a Grateful Dead album...

The Magnificant Manager has spoken again, such wisdom for the masses. Long live the EFL family godfather er terrorist!

When may we expect publication of the Book of Sunaru so that we may share it with all of the ill informed and igniorant masses of the world?

Please oh magnificant manager do not forget that to "rush to publication" is even more important than your personal motto "rush to judgment and flame away."

Worms, which are natural trolling bait by the way, have slimy skin. Snakes, on the other hand, have dry scales. But what you really need to watch out for is the DRAGON!

Oh magnificant manager have i offended thee by pretending to give you, of all people, advice. Sorry! A thousand apologies!

Please tell us more?

Isn't Sunaru 'uranus' spelled backwards? You maybe a muppet but you look like a rather unearthly muppet and speak as such.

teehee Laughing (said gigglingly whilst daintily covering mouth so as not to appear too ungraceful, feminazi and western-- I learned this from my E. Asian female students and it took me ages before I could laugh whilst exposing my teeth)

My source claims bada-bing originated with the Sopranos. Hard to believe but maybe...Although I swear I heard it in the Godfather. But the Oxford Dictionary can't be wrong now can they??? Confused Now "bad hair day" is another story... We all know thats an old word...I am against slang... Confused

Methinks the guys down at the OED have been watching far too much cable TV...
