Bunny Rogoff, "My get-up-and-go just got up and left!"
"It isn't so much what's on the table, as what's in the chairs." 
"It isn't so much what's on the table, as what's in the chairs."
That reminds me of another old saying that has a very similar meaning to
Tramp's. It Is:" How high is a mice when she spins?" I built my life based on the message contained in that little bit of wisdom.:yes:
This one always helped keep things in perspective for me. "A woman is a woman, but a good cigar is a smoke." :wink:
It's so quiet in here you could hear a rat pissing on cotton.
I thought that philosopher was from West Virginia
In Montana it goes like this: " Was it good for you?" and she
replied," Baa- Baa."
My Daddy was the genuine article from Dothan, Alabama (got to get down there someday to look around) and he had so many funny sayings. A decidedly southern saying that always struck me funny when he said it:
"Don't let your alligator mouth overload your jaybird ass!" :thumbup:

P.S. I like it so much I think I'll put it in my sig line.

Dothan brings back some memories.I gambled there when i was
pretty young (well,maybe not so pretty).
Had a giant of a man say to me "Don't get smart,kid."
I said "I can't help it,I'm smarter'n a tree full of owls."
...he smiled ... and let me live
...maybe i'll post about that session sometime
Nice looking ferrule but it shoots like it's sterile!

It would be hijacking the thread,which i'm enjoying.
The word 'sterile' in your next post has a story also.
On topic....A Zane Grey novel i read when i was twelve....
Two guys standing at the top of a cliff....one guy says....
"If a man stepped off here,he could get sick and tired of fallin'.
Well, since the thread is all shot to hell, how about this one. "The cat swallowed the mouse and choked to death. Who killed whom?"
You're watching too much True Blood.
The thread's premise is out the window but this is still fun. Since it's going that way anyway here's a couple piggy quotes.
John McCain about his challenger for senate: "Never wrestle in the mud with a pig . You both get dirty and the pig likes it."
General wisdom: Never try to teach a pig how to sing. It wastes your time and it pisses of the pig.
Hyuk. Hyuk.
By the way , Tramp, you don't have to use," whom ," after ,"killed."
Only after a preposition. You don't have to thank me.
