Hornswaggler | The culture, the humor, a bit of the sports, not so much the politics, and the workplace distraction

Hornswaggle is an alternate spelling of hornswoggle, an archaic word that means to bamboozle or hoodwink. I take my pronunciation from the late Harvey Korman in "Blazing Saddles" --

"I want rustlers, cutthroats, murderers, bounty hunters, desperados, mugs, pugs, thugs, nitwits, halfwits, dimwits, vipers, snipers, conmen, Indian agents, Mexican bandits, muggers, buggerers, bushwhackers, hornswagglers, horse thieves, bull dykes, train robbers, bank robbers, ass kickers, shit kickers and Methodists!"

Good Sept. 11 article by Dave Barry. Good quote from Christopher Hitchens on Ken Layne's site rightly chastising the Bush Administration for lumping the Iranians into the "Axis of Evil" while Saudi princes chill poolside at Bush's Crawford Ranch. The young people in Iran are moving towards democracy and freedom of ideas and they should be supported, not marginalized.
