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!" |

Wednesday, May 05, 2010Profound lucubrationsIt occurred to me randomly this morning about the "The Fugitive": Why send a one-armed man to kill someone? Was this some sort of progressive hiring program? If I'd been in charge, I would have specified a man with two arms. Call me crazy, or insensitive to the handicapped, but I think a man with four functional limbs has got a better chance of pulling off the job. .: posted by hornswaggler 8:43 AM| |
