BUTOISI

First of all, I'm setting the record straight that I do not have a flying phobia. I heard that definition of an airplane (a silver tube with wings) in a comedy routine. Although that thought does cross my mind as I'm flying. :0)

Let's stick with word verification for this next round. Give me a definition and use it in a sentence. Keep it clean. :0)

The word verification is: BUTOISI

    Mary couldn't help but worry about her son as he had looked rather butoisi when he left for school.

    (I hope I understand this game properly. I'm just treating it like Balderdash, so I hope that is ok.)
