PABULOUS

As soon as I saw this Word, I knew that I�d have problems.  It seems so easy, yet it�s so difficult!

It�s really annoying!  The word is on the tip of my tongue - like �saliva� - but that�s not the answer!

I know the word � it�s just like the word �floccinoccinihilipilification� � i know it but I simply can�t say it!

I remember precisely, in great detail, what its nominative cognate in the vocative case, �pabulosity�, means!

�Pabulosity� is the speed, the velocity, the kilometers per hour, at which a �pabule� emerges from its pabulum.  But, for the life of me, I can�t remember what a �pabule� is!

I even remember being in the back seats of the cinema with a girl, during the film: �The Pabule from Outer Space!�

I can remember the girl distinctly!  She was wearing ... ... and she ... ... and then ... ...

Sorry!  I�ll have to come back later!
