Thread Name: Folklore: Origins of 'Happy As A Clam'
Subject: RE: Folklore: Origins of 'Happy As A Clam'
Ode to Puget Sound immortalizes (or at least geriatricizes) the variant "happy as a butter clam". The page title incorrectly (my fault - note to self: fix that) identifies it as "Acres of Clams".
