Congrats, dear Elizabeth!

A great word, but so easy...Wink

PA . for daddy
-bulous , short for fabulous

So: It �s one of the praises you receive from your daddy... for the tiny things, not for the great achievements, just because he loves you!

Don �t you just hate them, these air headed, superficial pabulous girls....
PAB - personal address book
pabulous - a term for those lovers of my space, facebook,hives,twitter,tweet,gweeb bleeb who believe that your social status is defined mainly by how many people you have listed in your PAB and never understood that there is more to a relationship between people than hitting the �add to addressbook � button!

PABULOUS
 
This was originally a warning call used by families of cattle breeders.
At certain times of the year the bulls are rather active and inclined to escape from their enclosures, thus endangering family members. On the occasion of a father being endangered by a bull, a son calls loudly,  � Pa bull loose! �
 
Over the years the form of this word has changed to the word we see today �Pabulous �.
So if you see an elderly gentleman in danger (from any cause) you may call �Pabulous! � and everyone will know exactly what the situation is. Wink

A football game in Caracas, Venezuela

where every player is called Pablo.
 
Spectator 1: "phew! Just made it, any score yet?"
Spectator 2: "No, but you �ve missed a Pabulous game."

My definition also has an alcoholic inclination..  pabulous is an anagram of A pub soul
 
Or, it could be a dance move because it �s also an anagram of usual bop
