Tell me again why you are leaving me  :D

I'd rather go to your funeral any day than you go to mine... great idea, you first.

I'm not saying she's cold but when she opens her mouth a light comes on ...frigidaire woman

It's sure missing a good opportunity to rain... I better go cover the piles

We got three forms of communication here, telephone, telegraph, tell Bonnie

We don't abide her much, she carries the news... Bonnie is bad to gossip

You better eat that or it'll go to the bad... last call before it goes the the chickens.

Well I 'low (allow)... verily verily I say unto you.

Southside

Hold my beer.

Watch this.

Both famous last words.  :D

"Clean as a whistle" is from medieval times when a lord would behead somebody with a sword like a claymore.  When done right the sword makes a whistling sound instead of a solid 'thunk!'

Southside, for a true measure of inflation we ought to check with the ol' goat and see what the SGU is at in today's money. It might be $429.75 now 😁
Too many irons in the fire

"Water in the gas" - could be diarrhea.

Batten down the hatches it's going to get rough!

The beatings will continue until morale improves 

Boss spelled backwards is DOUBLE SOB

My wife says she needs two roosters.  I told her the hens don't need two roosters.  She said, "They do too! Especially if one doesn't say home."  I promptly quit my job and found one where I didn't travel so much. 

Did you catch those fish?  No, I talked them into giving up.

I am pretty sure an SGU is a fixed unit of currency. The price of an item may now cost more SGUs but the value remains fixed.

Man you've got the heart of a red bug!  No very sympathetic 

Cuter than a bug's ear

Rough as cob.  A rough person. 

Thicker than pea soup.  Foggy

I'm spread too thin.  Too much to do

I'm not quite in the middle of nowhere but I'm pretty sure I can see it from here. 

Sweating bullets. Nervous 

Hey how you doing?  "I feel like I've been jerked through a knot hole."  Not doing too good

Hey how you doing?  "If I get any better there will be two of me". Doing very well

Hey how you doing? "Fine as frogs' hair!"

Hey Blister!  
Why you calling me Blister?
You show up when the work is about done.  

To have the "epizootie" or the "epizootics" is to have any illness with flu-like symptoms

Sure you can, you just gotta pick it up by the clean end first.

I had to ask someone to leave the office a few weeks ago and bit my tongue before I said, "Don't let the door hit ya where the Lord split ya!"

"She doesn't realize a Medicare card and a mini-skirt don't go on the same woman."  

"The apple didn't fall far from the tree."

"She's crazier than March hair!"

"He thinks alot of himself"

"All hat and no cattle"

We had a small get together with my daughter-in-law's parents on Saturday.  I walked in on some sort of exchange among them, "I felt like I walked into the middle of a play but didn't know my lines."

I caught myself using this one in another thread..... "The juice isn't worth the squeeze".

Dog gone it Howard! Now you have me like "floundering around" like a "fish out of water" thinking about whether I am using a colloquial expression or saying.  It is getting so bad "I'm at a loss for words." :D (Hardly  :D)

  Okay - here are two of my pet peeves!

"Over and out" and "Lock and load." Both are used by military wannabees or such and when you understand you realize how wrong they are.

In proper military radio etiquette "Over" basically means "my transmission is over and I am standing by waiting for your response" while "Out " means, "my transmission is complete and I am signing off". Basically Goodbye, masalama siddiq, kiss my grits, I'm done. So you would never say "I am waiting for your reply" then immediately say "I am signing out" without waiting for the response you just said you are expecting. It would be one or the other - Over or Out.

Lock and load refers to loading your rifle but if you have locked the bolt, you can't then load a round in the chamber so the proper sequence would be "Load and Lock."

   "Don't call him a cowboy till you've seen him ride" - from the song. Verify qualifications and don't just accept a new guy based on how he dresses or what he claims till you see him do what he says he can.
