My turn, Kelly! Seven deffinitions with one answer in mind. But remember--with the Dragon, nothing is ever what it seems...
1.) to hatch mosquitos
2.) all the world is a tub
3.) the act of digging frantically through everthing time and again looking for a lost earring
4.) to suddenly become aged
5.) to decide to remarry someone
6.) Sh! Mamma's trying hard to get baby to sleep. See!
7.) The end of Ariel
Good luck, mon ami! :D

1. Well, I guess it's not buzz-kill! Hmm...
1a. (to) stagnate
1b. cultivate frog bait
1c. fish food farm
1d. (to be) nothing but pond scum
2. earthenware
3. I really like lining mining as in coat lining, purse lining, jewelry box lining, but I suspect that the activity described is more generic than that. How about evening wear-and-tear?
4. cheesy
5. consecutive life sentences
6. kidnapping
7. fishtail
I'm pretty sure that I didn't come up with any of your words, but this was fun trying to find interesting ways to play with these!

I've been away, off the net, for awhile. Got bogged down in bothersome, nitpicky duties of work. (Still bogged down, for that matter. My eyes are blurry and my brain is tired.) Anywho, I never got back to this to really sink my teeth into it. However, now that I've seen the answers, yes, I think I would have been pretty stumped. Some of them (Sea Oats; Donnybrook), I wouldn't know from a knotted walking stick! Oh well... sometimes you're winsome, sometimes you're gruesome... or something like that! LOL

Excellent, Pendragon!
You know me - terrible with accents...Well, it depends on whether you hear them often or not. As I do not, there is a difference as wide as a barndoor. But, then here, voices do not vary that much to me, and unless you are from a good distace away, I won't catch you! :lol:

3.) to bring something a long way
4.) become chums
5.) close to the ground, under a snake's belly

7.) Thee?
6.) is correct. Spot on. http://www.cosgan.de/images/midi/sportlich/a040.gif
7.) could be correct, never thought of it like that. :lol: So I'll give it to you. The word I had in mind was clumsy (come see):lol:

Sorry, Pen - my brain's too grammar-wired, I keep trying to get everything to agree.
And I was thinking 'befriend,' but I thought, "it couldn't be that literal, could it?" Shows what I know! :brickwall

With me, nothing is ever what it seems, so when it is straight forward, it blows people's minds worse than when I try to hide things. Ah well, Holmes said "Naked is the best disguise."
