Margo	Folklore: favorite southern US expression (266* d)	RE: Folklore: favorite southern US expression	14 Sep 03
I used to play cards with an old cowboy in Southern Oregon (he grew up in Oklahoma). When I got to where I was in a fix and it looked like I was going to lose, he'd say, "Now you got your tit in a wringer". Obviously an undesireable position to be in. Can you imagine? Women using that particular tool to wring out the laundry and accidentally getting pulled in? OUCH! I finally protested and asked him to stop saying that. So he came up with "Now you got your udder in a rudder". Funny guy. Margo
