Catherine Posted March 3, 2009 Report Posted March 3, 2009 that I was as useful as a 3-legged donkey You can still _laugh_ at a three legged donkey. And they don't run away.... at least, not very fast. Quote
kcjenkins Posted March 4, 2009 Report Posted March 4, 2009 Well that is better than... as useful as teats on a bull! Actually, the correct phrase is "Useless as teats on a Boar hog". But the funny part of that is that hog breeders consider the number of teats on the boars to be important, since you want sows with a full supply of teats, and it's a proven fact that boar hogs with more teats produce offspring with more teats. And since pigs have from as little as 6 up to 30 teats, and often have litters in proportion to their teats, you can see why this is important. Oh, by the way, the forward teats on a sow are more productive than the hind ones---hence that old American phrase, "sucking the hind tit." Just a bit of left-over knowledge from my hog-raising days.
