Hi,

Horney is meant to indicate his skin is as if made from horn, I guess: He's one tough customer and you can't hurt him.

Indeed the skin of the rhino would do. It's not whether its hide actually is made of horn, but that it looks like it might be. "Thorny" would only seem to make sense if the logger didn't remove the stubbles from his face at all, but we know that he did: He drove them in with the hammer.


Well, you have lazy bones and you have tired bones ...
Bye,
