Now it's time for a few entries for the Official Elrod Hendricks Baseball Camp Glossary, Stergios Botzakis, editor, now in its 3rd printing:

Stubburned, adj., One whose irrational resistance to sunblock has had a seriously negative effect on his or her skin. A portmanteau word, derived from two English words of various origins.
example: Man, that bratty kid is so stubburned his face is starting to peel off! His parents are gonna be PO'd... but it's not our fault he won't put that blue glop all over himself. alt. spelling: stubburnt

Receding hairnet, n., A mesh for holding the hair in place, specifically for someone suffering from Male Pattern Baldness.
example: I'm glad I don't work in the kitchen; I'd have to wear a receding hairnet.

Running for distance, n., An "olympic" event, in which the little hooligans are told to run as far away as possible, maybe to the mall, where they could pick me up something cool from the Sharper Image. Apparently a combination of the events "Long Distance Throwing" and "Running." Definitely not a recommended activity in this heat.
example: I bet Jason would win the Long Distance Running competition, if only by default. He plays soccer for Pete's sake!

Lexicology: ain't it fun?!
