Word of the Day: absquatulate

absquatulate (v)

To leave in a hurry; vamoose.

"The Kiss-curl has absquatulated. C'est la guerre! She has left me, Banerjji."
--G.V. Desani, All About H. Hatterr

I was playing with a three-legged cat tonight at a friend's house. I offered him a catnip toy, but it seemed to startle him. He absquatulated. I was a little miffed, but then he came back and sniffed it. Nice kitty. It's amazing how fast a three-legged cat can move.
