Talk:plunk

It is used in a different sense here. I'm not sure exactly what definition is in use at this link.


 * The quote is:
 * “Now that Richard Pombo is getting a chance to spend more time plunking varmints back at his ranch,”
 * so the sense is “to strike”, in this context with connotations of “on the head, underfoot”. Compare whack: (as in whack-a-mole:), bop: (bop on the head), etc. If this is not an idiosyncratic usage, it warrants another definition – thanks!
