Maybe you heard someone make a connection between apples and healthcare. Or maybe you didn't know whether you should or should not shake a lamb's tail, or how many times it should be shaken. (Answer: Zero times). What about cats in bags, brown noses, throwing of babies, and the extremely popular question; do all good things come in small packages?

Have you ever heard someone say something nonsensical and wondered what the heck they were talking about? Well, you're about to get a book full of that. Maybe you heard someone make a connection between apples and healthcare. Or maybe you didn't know whether you should or should not shake a lamb's tail, or how many times it should be shaken. (Answer: Zero times). What about cats in bags, brown noses, throwing of babies, and the extremely popular question; do all good things come in small packages? These are all idioms, proverbs, or sayings and I'll let you know in two shakes of a lamb's tail what some common, and not so common, sayings mean. I have taken about 80 sayings and given the explanation, the history, and some example usage. I then add my own comedic take on what these different idioms, proverbs, and sayings mean to me or what they make me think of when I hear them. This book will look great on your coffee table or on the back of your toilet where it probably belongs. It's an educational tool on many sayings while providing a funny look at them. You'll learn history you've never wanted to learn, see examples you might never have thought of, and you'll explore the depths of the brain that keeps me fat, dumb, and happy. I hope you enjoy!
