Description
Theyre called colloquialisms, idioms, of just good old fashioned, home-grown country sayings steeped in humor and home-spun common sense. These parlances might not fit the modern hoity toity rhetoric youre used to seeing in print or hearing on TV, and thats exactly why theyre more refreshing than an ice cube in July. In Butter My Butt and Call Me a Biscuit, Author Allan Zullo offers up more than 200 vernacular verses presented in themes, such as:
* Admitting Youre WrongThe easiest way to eat crow is while its still warm, cause the colder it gets the harder it is to swallow.
* CongressGettin a politician to do somethin good for our country is like tryin to poke a cat out from under the porch with a rope.
* EgoSome people are so full of themselves, youd like to buy em for what theyre worth and sell em for what they think theyre worth.
* Teenage BoysYou kinda wish they used their heads for somethin besides hat racks.
* RevengeTwo wrongs dont make a right, but they sure do make it even.
* SurprisesSometimes you get so surprised by life there aint nothin else to say but, Butter my butt and call me a biscuit.’
