February 9, 201115 yr Last week I was taken with a touch of the strep throat and had to stay home a few days from work because of it. I am felling much better now. When I arrived at work Monday, my coworkers commented about the message I left for them notifying them of my absence. I will not be in the office today because I spent the night in the 'throws of fever' and do not feel well. This has made me think about other sayings / quotes I have heard over the years and wanted to hear some of yours.
February 9, 201115 yr I find myself using a lot of terms or quotes my dad said. Knuckle Junction You "best" behave. If I'm lyin I'm flyin That's a promise not a threat. Some others that are not ready for BGP primetime.
February 9, 201115 yr A few weeks ago a group of friends were eating out one Sunday night. Had a sick kid, so didn't think I was going to be able to make it. One of the group asked if I wanted us to reschedule. My response was a saying I learned from an older fella whom I admire greatly. I told them not to cancel because "one monkey don't stop no show."
February 9, 201115 yr She's madder than a wet hen. Does a fat dog fart? When reassuring an obvious answer.
February 9, 201115 yr Homely as a mud fence. Tighter than the bark on a tree. Beaten like a rented mule. If a frog had side pockets, he'd carry a handgun. The sky is as blue as a Dutchman's britches.
February 9, 201115 yr If you can't run with the big dogs just get on the porch. Spit fire and save matches. Not the sharpest tool in the shed. Longer than Pat stayed in the army. Hotter than blue blazes.

Some others that are not ready for BGP primetime. I should add "fly straight and join the do right club." Heard that one quite a bit as a youngster.
February 9, 201115 yr Dumber than drywall. Louder than all get-out. A few of my dad's: "Working harder than a cat trying crap in a concrete alley." "That'll go over like a fart in church." OR "That'll go over like a turd in a punch bowl."
February 9, 201115 yr Someone told me today that we had a "March day" not long ago. She said that meant that it snowed, was windy and sunny all on the same day.
February 9, 201115 yr "More nervous than a prostitute in church." I always heard "sweating like a prostitute in church".
February 9, 201115 yr a couple from the old days: - Ah, horsefeathers - How about a punch in the snot locker!
