Sorry, folks, looks like Joe Robins (Snibor Eoj) was also saving up 
rodomontade for a possible fictionary word.  I am so disappointed...I was 
looking forward to having the real definition get lots of "most like David 
Randall" votes for it's exciting history.

[French, from the obsolete Italian rodomontada, from rodomonte, braggart, 
after Rodomonte, a boastful Moorish king in the epics _Orlando Innamorato_ 
(1487) and _Orlando Furioso_ (1516)]

Jean-Joseph picks again!
