perhaps she found another board to post at.   Lips Sealed  we should start googling.  
 
here's what i've found...
 
Quote:
SYLLABICATION: horn·swog·gle  
PRONUNCIATION:   hôrnswgl  
TRANSITIVE VERB: Inflected forms: horn·swog·gled, horn·swog·gling, horn·swog·gles
Chiefly Northern & Western U.S. To bamboozle; deceive.
ETYMOLOGY: Origin unknown.  
OUR LIVING LANGUAGE: We do not know the origin of hornswoggle. We do know that it belongs to a group of “fancified” words that were particularly popular in the American West in the 19th century. Hornswoggle is one of the earliest, first appearing around 1829. It is possible that these words were invented to poke fun at the more “sophisticated” East. Some other words of this ilk are absquatulate, also first appearing in the 1820s, skedaddle, first attested in 1861 in Missouri, and discombobulate, first recorded in 1916.

YOO HOO! Forum Friends, the title of the thread says nothing, nada, not one word of Hornswogggle being a Mrs., Miss, Mz., or anyone of a feminine gender.  Hornswoggle is laughing all right, as he sits in front of the TV on a cold winter afternoon watching a golf tournament, sipping a Jack Daniels!

Oh?  You sure?  Maybe this is TMI, but my daughter and a bunch of her girlfriends tried this - ohhhh so many years ago... - and they could do it standing up.

Thanks everso....
