You can tell a Dutchman from other people, but you can't tell him much because he thinks he knows everythig.

I see said the blind man.

I see said the blind man as he picked up his hammer and saw.

I see said the blind man on a blind date.

I see said the blind man to his deaf and dumb friend.

I see said the blind man as his crippled brother came by in a wheelchair.

Nervous as a long taled cat in a room full of rocking chairs.

Nervous as a cat on a hot tinned roof.

Worthless as tits on a rain barrel.....

and of course he had many racial one liners that were a hoot too,
but I shouldn't mention them here..

I had to explain "a dog and pony show" the other day for my son. It was in reference to my mother in law insisting the entire family, all 45 of us, attend church with her at the church building the family attended when her kids were living at home 30 years ago even though it was a 2 hour drive. Good times, Lisa

It's all fun and game till you get an eye poked out! My great grandma told us this regularly when we were "horsing" around!

Hotter than a two peckered goat
Tighter than a bulls ass in fly season
Grandpap had a lot of sayings, two of my favorites

Colder than a mother in law's kiss.

Hotter than three in bed.
