She can cut (and split) wood, chaw tabaccie, plant a tree, smoke a reefer (that means drive a refrigerated truck real fast), file a chainsaw, overhaul a skidoo carburetor at 40 below, whupyoasswithawetnoodle, saddle a bronc with a burr, (we like bareback better though), pullstart a 40HP Scott Atwater hot, put out a 5 acre bush fire with a Wajax, make a fire in a fall drizzle with green wood, find her way back 1/4 mile from the two holer after midnite without a flashlight and no moon, augur a hole thru 4 feet of blue ice before you can bait the hook, bait a hook with a pike to catch a sturgeon, and a few other household chores we heartily endorse but blush to mention.

The best thing about 'petard' is that it's name comes from the old French word for a fart.

BTW, the cliche is generally 'hoist by his own petard' rather than 'hoisted'.
