This was just too good not to warrant a thread of it's own. I wonder if this was a comment on politicians. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VjzrNWPul9E Peas

I thought the boy handled himself very well under the circumstances.

I'm sure this will be replayed in schoolyards all across the country this week. Numnahs will now be a mainstream word.

Numnah could replace fauchard as OFEC's official Scripp's Spelling Bee favorite word of the year.

Although I have to admit, our rallying cry of going into battle by sharpening our fauchards had a lot more zing to it that our new rallying cry of sitting on our numnahs and doing nothing. I guess the latter is probably more fitting though.

I can forgive the poor child, as I'm sure the words numbnut and numnah are related, as they both have something to do with riding a horse.

I guess you get numbnuts if you don't use numnahs.
