My grandmother (born 1902) and her younger sister used to say "Aha she cried and waved her wooden leg" and "Read 'em and weep" when they'd be playing cards and lay down the winning hand or go out first. I can understand the relationship between the latter phrase and winning at cards but the wooden leg phrase has always piqued my curiousity. I use the phrase in our family to keep it going but wish I knew the origin. Whatever it is....I love it! Takes me back to being a child and playing cards with the adults late at night!
