finical \FIN-ih-kuhl\, adjective:
Extremely or unduly particular in standards or taste;
fastidious; finicky.

The paintings incorporate the random and arbitrary...
within a practice that nonetheless requires finical
accuracy; there is a degree of almost mindless repetition
and filling in involved, but the resulting forms are
unpredictable and uncategorizable.
--Barry Schwabsky, "Ingrid Calame: James Cohan Gallery,"
[1]Artforum, February 1, 2004

That the director, who is known for his finical selection
of stars, has zeroed in on Aamir says a great deal about
his faith in the actor.
--"Images: Movie Matters," [2]News India, November 15, 1996

Westermann the woodworker is a joy to behold.

I love dictionaries as well. I haven't been to dictionary.com much. I usually go to hyperdictionary, but the effect is the same; learning new words.

I also signed up to get a Word of the Day on MyYahoo. It's fun to see if I already know what the word is...
