Hmm ... 1. Nothign sounds right. "Thrower away" probably sounds least wrong 2. "Blower upper", probably. "Blower up" works too, but it's probably not what I would say 3. Nothing sounds right. "Caster aside" probably sounds least wrong I'd probably just reword a sentence that required that to avoid the -er all together, saying something like "the person who threw it away" -- "There's no such thing as 'cool'. Everyone's just a big dork or nerd, you just have to find people who are dorky the same way you are." - overheard ICQ: 18656696 AIM Screen-Name: NikTaylor42
