Dear Fictionary,

Here are ten SLEECH defs, only nine of them bogus.  You may bestow one 
one-point vote, one two-point vote, and as many awards and other decorations as 
you like.  Votes are due in one week, i.e., at dusk (Eastern U.S. time) on 
Sunday, September 25.  May the best def win!

Regards,
em
