Yes.  And I should have included one, but didn't.  That was my mistake.
Sorry.

As Martin has already noted, it means being silly and poking one's
tongue out.


Actually, while we're here, it occurred to me yesterday that we're
almost due for the annual posting of Digital JUMP!, and that segues
into me thinking about Digital JUMP!'s supporting cast, which leads
me to wonder...

If you, Tom, by your own analysis, have what we may humorously
call 'Pretentious Spelling Syndrome', do you use 'aluminum' or
'aluminium'?
