<blink>[continued near the bottom of thread]

our word is izzat

PM me your daffynitions within the sennight; if you know the word, make up something else and keep mum about it until after the votes are counted.

yeah, I know it's just a freakin' game; but I like to have everybody playing the same one.

thank you,
your hogmaster®

Yippeee! Thanks, hogmaster®

Posted By: themilum Re: yet another hogwash (yah!) - 02/04/05 11:17 AM
Point of order! Point of order!
Consuelo said "yippeee!".
Pigs don't say "yippeee", they say "oink".
It is cowboys who say "yippeee".

For once let's start a Hogwash(c) on the right cloven foot.

I agree, Milo. Connie ain't no pig. Course, she ain't no cowboy, neither, but then you din't never imply that she were.

Posted By: themilum Re: yet another hogwash (yah!) - 02/04/05 01:55 PM
Thank you Faldage I think.

You know what, Faldage? Sometimes you sound so strange
that I just want to stop and ask you ...

Hey Faldage, izzat really you?

Posted By: AnnaStrophic Re: yet another hogwash (yah!) - 02/04/05 02:31 PM
Next time we go south, Milo, we want to see the Birmingham Barons (even though Faldage is a Cubs fan); you come along with us and you can find out for your own self. I'll buy the PBR.

Posted By: themilum Re: yet another hogwash (yah!) - 02/04/05 04:11 PM
Deal. Any friend of the Birminham Barons and Pabst Blue Ribbon beer is a friend of mine. You buy the baseball tickets and the first two cases of PBR high-quality low-cal beer are on me.

Posted By: maverick Re: yet another hogwash (yah!) - 02/04/05 05:02 PM
> PBR high-quality low-cal

Marketing language - translates as:

high-cal low-quality ;)

Is it true PBR stands for Piss in a Bottle, Really?

>PBR

reminds me of a wwftd quiz..
(which came from here:
http://wordsmith.org/board/showthreaded.pl?Cat=&Board=wordplay&Number=102342)

(04/27/2003)
the worthless word for the day is: lant

the wwftd quiz returns for a guest appearance..

choose one:

a) to walk bent into the wind

b) to control the flow of water in a sluice by means of a sluicegate;
to send down a sluice, as of logs

c) to mingle ale with stale urine to make it strong

d) to dance and frolick; to party: as on the village green on May Day
or at harvest-home

e) [Chem.] to introduce a miniscule portion of an ingredient to a formula;
fig. add a pinch


with all of this context, the answer should be obvious
- ron obvious, a.k.a. the wwftd master

Posted By: TEd Remington first two cases of PBR - 02/04/05 07:23 PM
Now THERE'S a budget buster.

Speaking of lant, my small contribution is on its way.

Posted By: AnnaStrophic Re: I actually® prefer... - 02/04/05 08:48 PM
NPR to PBR but if that's what it takes...

~~~
with all of this context, the answer should be obvious

ooh - ooh - ooh! Mistah tsuwm, pick me! pick me!

Any friend of the Birminham Barons

Should I wear my '47 Birmingham Black Barons hat? I promise to memorize the names of at least three of the teams members (beside the obvious one, of course).

Posted By: themilum Re: yet another hogwash (yah!) - 02/04/05 11:59 PM
Sure, faldage, wear your 1947 Black Barons cap.
What the heck, I'll even take you to Rickwood Field where the Black Barons played when the white Barons weren't in town.

Rickwood Field is the oldest Baseball Stadium in the World, quite pretty, but in a high-crime neighborhood.

The black and white Barons of today play in Hoover Stadium. The city of Hoover is ten miles from downtown Birmingham.
Yall come.

Posted By: Faldage Re: yet another hogwash (yah!) - 02/05/05 01:31 PM
Yall come.

Ah-ite.

the deadline is Friday, josephine, and I've only two(10) entries. and I've already disqualified one of those for supererogation. (you know who you are.)

- the hogmgmt™

No tsuwm, I don't know who I am. Does anybody really know whom they am? And what has knowing ever had to do with Hogwash?

***Please don't abridge my entry...I have a clever plan.

Posted By: tsuwm you prolly think that post was about you - 02/09/05 05:27 AM
milum, you may want to put a hold on your plan.

-joe (not simple) simon

p.s. - does anybody here know what time it is?

No tsuwm, I didn't think that your post was about me.
That was southern humor.
But now what the heck would a Hogmaster know that would make me want to put a hold on my great plan?

The time is nine below zero and counting.

> supererogation

Is that the action of repeatedly rogering?

Point of order!

...I've only two(10) entries

Just to clarify: two is two, the successor-of-one, whether it's written 11-base-1 or 10-base-2 or 2-base-10, or however.

That being said - did you have ten-the-number or 10-the-numeral-two-base-two? That is, just how impoverished is the daffynition base?

>Is that the action of repeatedly rogering?

hey!

I just now read yesterday's word and think that any submission to the current yah by Dina should be disallowed. Respects, O'bow
"The authors argue that their book is meant to illuminate the human impact of war by presenting a collage of images, figures, and text, based on the latest research findings, 'that cover... 59 wars that took place within 48 locations'."

2(10) - 1(10) = All glory to me!
Since I am morally opposed to doing more than necessary, I have the only entry. I WIN!!!!

Posted By: tsuwm Re: the math is simple - 02/09/05 09:31 PM
that's assuming, of course, you weren't the one disqualified. ;)
