Members Bakershalfdozen Posted September 16, 2009 Author Members Share Posted September 16, 2009 Holster used the word, "kerfuffle" in the GO Joe/BOO Joe thread. I thought he was being funny. Turns out, it is a real word! Kerfuffle - disorder or commotion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members holster Posted September 16, 2009 Members Share Posted September 16, 2009 I know kerfuffle well because that's my state of life most of the time! But the Lord will always bring His order in His time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
