it's a dead-end job.
Next dead-on post?
Very true honda, but better a dead-end job to get
the bills paid, than being labeled a deadbeat. 🙂

"Dead as a doornail"
I've used that expression since the middle of the last century but I have no clue why or where it might have started. I didn't even know exactly what a "doornail" is.
A quick bit of google searching gives interesting factoids but no real information.
There's a reference to it in print in 1350: "For but ich haue bote of mi bale I am ded as dorenail."

I too have used that one 4 as long as I can remember...
but Newt took dead aim to come up with an old quote that's worth a bag of Dead Presidents !!
Good one Newt !
That was dead on !

Anyone up for a game of horseshoes... if you can land that shoe dead center then you'd have a dead ringer.
My parents used to say "dead as a doornail" too.

At my Christmas lunch yesterday, if I do say so myself, I looked drop dead gorgeous. However, I got dead drunk and today I feel like dead meat. But since I am dead set against telling the gory details, the only way you will find out is over my dead body!

If I dug up your dead body in the dead of the night......do I get to hear all the gory details ?
Or would that be just dead wrong ?

Ahh - dead men tell no tales! But I do have to say that you are a dead ringer for a bear that used to roam these parts.

The Bear.....hunters here shot and killed him.
He's Dead !
