applying graphite

[Scott Jackson]

Thanks Clark,
The Australian definition of DAG is:
DAG: noun 1a. (usually in the plural) a lump of matted wool and faeces 
hanging from the rear end of a sheep; b. such a lump cut from a sheep.

2. a person (primarily male) who is regarded as something of a 'character', 
eccentric but entertainingly so, a wag.

3a. an unfashionable adolescent. b. any unfashionable or non-stylish person.

(from http://www.anu.edu.au/andc/ozwords/Oct%202000/TailDag.html)

See why i'm confused?
