Appreciate the award. But in truth I have to give the credit to Mr. Bill O'Reilly. It is one of his favorites.

[Bakershalfdozen]

Well, Bill O'Reilly didn't invent the word, nor did he use it on this board.

[Bakershalfdozen]

A new winner!

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

[holster]

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.
