Hornswoggle means to get the better of someone through cheating or deception. To give (one's) head for washing means yielding without resistance (think brainwashed). To carry fire in one hand and water in the other means to be two faced or deceiving. To make a spoon or spoil a horn means to be so consumed with achieving your objectives that you unwittingly ruin something in the process, or completely fail, though that is a price you are willing to pay. After absorbing these words and expressions does anyone come to mind? If your answer is no then consider yourself hornswoggled, though it isn't to late to bury the hatchet.
