BranShea BranShea Pooh-Bah Registered: 06/23/06 Posts: 1870 Loc: Netherlands, the Hague	Any chance on getting a quarter point? It's a pity tsuwm never heard chamois (Rupicapra rupicapra) passing by on a mountain trail. 'Trappel' BTW is the sound horses make with their hoofs (in Holland that is). (never trust your own language in a hogwash). > 2sleepy, my - in reserve- def. was almost identical to yours, only the mash was from quince and crabapple. I almost voted for it and should have , too late , too late. I fell for the half starving pioneers. $\:\)$

Owlbow Owlbow enthusiast Registered: 10/21/03 Posts: 305 Loc: Rhode Island, USA	Congratulations Jackie, and thank you for a great hog washing. I’m happy, (not laughing), to share 2nd place. I now fully realize that points do matter. Therefore, I think that those that received any quesses should get another half point. After all, they crafted definitions that were good enough to fool some of the cleverest people that I virtually know. If so, it will bring my average up to 0.07 points/game.

BranShea BranShea Pooh-Bah Registered: 06/23/06 Posts: 1870 Loc: Netherlands, the Hague	The pook. Your's was indeed beautifully crafted and tempting but then I imagined the scene and had a fit of laughther, the apple tree , that rope and that hook . $\:D$ I shouldn't have mentioned it maybe. In the next round when I will have the usual five votes () I will put four of them on your account. Please don't thrapple me. Yes Jackie, good round!

Bran: Thanks for the (almost) vote. I'll try to make mine even better next time! Jackie: Another this week? I think y'all should do this at least twice a month. :0)

Jackie Jackie Carpal Tunnel Registered: 03/15/00 Posts: 9601 Loc: Louisville, Kentucky	I don't normally function as hogmistress, so I think I'll leave the next round to the usual suspect(s). I just thought it seemed like it might be a good time to have a round, and judging by how fun all the definitions were, I'd say I was right--this was a LOT of fun!
