"You may be too old to cut the mustard, but you are never too old to lick the jar." I think that one is self-explanatory.

That's a distance measure, too; how far away can you be heard with one hoot, plus how far your "holler" can carry.

When responding to "How are you?" answer "Fine as frog hair!"
If you have ever pet a frog, you know how fine that can be.
