Some of my favorites:

1. "Shit fire and save matches."
2. "Don't piss on my leg and tell me it's raining."
3. "Snoring like a cartoon bear."
4. "Dead as a doornail."
5. "Hairy as a French Whore."
6. "Slicker than snot."

There's another one of my pop's favorite sayings.

I wish I could think of some of the other interesting things he says. But my brain just denatured due to the heat in my apartment.

We sometiomes get really heavy rain here. Flash flood rain in fact. That's when pops is most likely to use that saying. I've never heard anyone else use it, so I assume he either made it up, or it was born of another time and another place where people have actually witnessed a cow pissing on a flat rock.

I haven't been around cows enough to know.

So, if you live on a farm, do you sort cows and stuff like that?

The real question is, do cows piss less if the rock is bumpy?

Oh, and about the pot calling the kettle black... I don't use a wood fire any more, and my silver pot calling my white kettle black seems rather outdated.

Fundiebots/New Agers like to cite this little cliche: Anything's possible. Bullshit!

I've always wondered why "dead nuts on" is a good thing, but "numb nuts" is not.

Theoretically, in a truly infinite universe, anything is possible given enough time or distance (on a scale asymptotically approaching infinity). Or do you disagree with Stephen Hawking?
