My cousin in NJ introduced me to the word. That's not much of a hint is it? #203326 - 11/18/11 05:04 PM Re: Half - a - hog / mummichog [Re: BranShea]   Joined: Apr 2000 Posts: 10,538 tsuwm Carpal Tunnel tsuwm   Carpal Tunnel Joined: Apr 2000 Posts: 10,538 this too shall pass well, I'm all for mosquito control! #203328 - 11/18/11 05:36 PM Re: Half - a - hog / mummichog [Re: tsuwm]   Joined: Nov 2011 Posts: 1,075 Rhubarb Commando old hand Rhubarb Commando   old hand Joined: Nov 2011 Posts: 1,075 Lancaster, UK Hoping for a net result?

(I'd be happy if rhubrb cmmnder would give a serious hogwash, but it's best to be 10 in that game.) Best before the first snow falls. Don't know what stuwm is buzzing, but he seems to have lost his appetite for leading a round. So our hopes are for Rhubarb Commander?

Well, I am considerably more than 10! I had three boarders promise almost immediatly that they would take part; so, ever the optimist, I have set up a Hogwash as "Rhuby's Hogwash." Roll up! Roll up! Try your luck! Win a Kupie Doll for the little lady!
