http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silvanus_(mythology);

Silvanus is the god of "large woody objects," meaning trees, among other things.

He has what he jokingly calls "a soft spot" for callipygous arborists.

Embiggen: to make larger, to grow.

The opposite of debigulate, this word is perfectly cromulent.

"It pays to embiggen your vocabulary."

"Click to embiggen."
