Bad indeed. Nimrod was a mighty hunter, among other attributes.
Well I'll be....er.....hornswoggled!!! I never knew that. Nimrod the mighty hunter of humans of biblical times became the stupid yo-yo hunter of modern times in 1955(?) when Daffy Duck (?) taunted Elmer Fudd (?) calling him "my little Nimrod". |
