LMAO! Has anyone ever heard this expression? I was just working on a new ad, and I needed an expression with the word "rain" in it. So I googled "cliches" and found a site where you can put in a word and it lists a bunch of cliches and phrases with that word.
This is one of the things that came up in my search.
I laughed out loud. I've never heard that one before.
I don't think I'll use that one, however.

You know what it does to me when you talk like that!:ihih:
No, I've never heard that one. Not sure why you wouldn't use it in your add campaign. It's BRILLIANT!:idea:

About now's the time we should tell you about GM's obsessive fixation with bovine urination...

...funniest things I've ever heard in a somewhat similar vein, was a co-workers' description of another co-workers' a...er...shall we say frugality...He was characterized as being " As tight as a cow's @$$ at fly time"...

I've heard:
He's as tight as a frog's a$$.
He's so uptight you couldn't get a pin up his a$$ with a jackhammer.

My favorite is how my brother describes me:
"He's so cheap he wouldn't pay a nickel to see a hot dog bark".
Though I disagree that I'm cheap - cautious is more appropriate.

My favorite description of someone who's tight has always been "If you shoved a coal up his a$$, he'd sh!t diamonds."
It think that was from Ferris Bueller...

So you are in advertising? I do graphic design and advertising.

Hey, that's cool!
My background is life insurance sales and marketing. But more recently I've dropped the sales side and gotten deeper into the marketing side of the business. I'm currently working for a small insurance organization and form half of a two person marketing dept. So I get to do a little of everything...web site, product design, writing articles, advertising, and anything else that needs doing.
Creative people with my industry knowledge are in high demand which is very good for me. :thumbsup:
Although, my design skills could definately use some honing. So, if you've got any tips I'd love to hear 'em.

It probably originated down here in Texas, although not likley in Houston as the cows are usually under water from the floods. :ciappa:

I've heard that one before, and all of the others... One of my own faves.
