Cromulant?

Wazzat mean?

Iss fryeday, yeh?

Joy

p.s.  I actually misspelled it and looked up "cromulent" in dictionary.com -
found that, but it didn't make much sense. No entry at all for "cromulant."
Yipes, can I be a spelling geek at the exact same time as I'm both truly and
feigning ignorance of the meaning of this odd word?
