Oh, but it would have been so perfect!

I'll not crack too many jokes for a change. At least, I'll try. Thrid grade humor can be surprisingly addicting.

OK, so, if Jommeke won't look it up in a dictionary, I will. Had to before to figure out if it was pf or ph. Duh.

"Thick, clammy mucus secreted by the respiratory mucosa" That means nothing to you, right?

It's [I believe] the really thick mucus produced by going "pkkknhkkkkkkkkhn" or "hhhnk" when you have a cold, popular for use in spitting.

Or, that's always how I used it.
