Learn to speak the language
=====================

The White House did not just get a new team, but a whole new
language.  George W. Bush brought with him the language of the country and its colorful characters.  For anyone not born in Rural America or spent any time there, the accents and the  cowboy vocabulary may seem a bit strange but no matter who you are they will always bring a smile and usually they are universally understood.  If not here is a guide....to some you may hear.

1. The engine's runnin' but ain't nobody driving 
   Not overly intelligent.

2. As welcome as a skunk at a lawn party (self-explanatory).

3. Tighter than bark on a tree
     Not very generous.

4. Big hat, no cattle
    All talk and no action.

5. We've howdied but we ain't shook yet
     We've made a brief acquaintance, but not been formally introduced.

6. He thinks the sun come up just to hear him crow 
    He has a pretty high opinion of himself.

7. She's got tongue enough for ten rows of teeth 
    That woman can talk.

8. It's so dry the trees are bribin' the dogs 
    We really could use a little rain around here.

9. Just because a chicken has wings doesn't mean it can fly
    Appearances can be deceptive.

10. This ain't my first rodeo
       I've been around awhile.

11. He looks like the dog's been keepin' him under the porch
      Not the most handsome of men.

12. They ate supper before they said grace
       Living in sin.

13. Time to paint your butt white and run with the antelope
      Stop arguing and do as you're told.

14. As full of wind as a corn-eating horse
      prone to boasting.

15. You can put your boots in the oven, but that doesn't make them biscuits.
       You can say whatever you want about something, but that doesn't change what it is.

Hope these made you smile!
