WHAT!!!!!! HOW DARE YOU!!! ME? WRONG?

Well, maybe.... Hmmmm. OED time.

Bounder, Also Bownder, Boundier, 1. One who sets out or marks out bounds or limits... 1610 Holland, Camden's Brit. I. 745 Umpiers and Bounders between diverse shires...

A Barrow Cookie for Birdland (don't mind the mold)! I keep telling people not to assume my take on things is invariably correct without question or debate. Its really annoying, actually, to make a comment in a thread and have that thread suddenly end as if some kind of authority had spoken.
