If I remember right the US had a 3 cent Nickel coin that was plugged with Silver. Maybe some coin collector has better knowledge of this.
Thats what I love about these old sayings, understanding the origins of them. Its like insight into history sometimes.

Dr. Phil is always good for some funny Texas sayings.
One time I heard him say to a pretty girl on the show "Your about as cute as a speckled pup."

As little credit as I gave my parents sometimes, it's a wonder I survived. . . of course, my ex-Marine Corp drill sergeant Dad would've killed me before I had a real chance to do myself in with some of my stupidity or hardheadedness.


I'm kinda partial to when hell freezes. By my best guesstimate, it's happened time and again.

My first husband told me this one.

She is on the Disorient Express headed for the Hotel Silly.

He of course was speaking of his Grandmother at the time.
