2 from Red Skelton I believe (another Hoosier).
	"She fell out an ugly tree and hit every limb on the way 
down."

	"The snake was so poor that he didn't have a pit to hiss 
in...". Taken of course from the expression "so poor he 
didn't have a pot to piss in".


>From someplace:
	"I'll kick your a$$ so far up between your shoulders that 
you will have to take your hat off to wipe."

	"Busy as a one arm wallpaper-hanger".

	"Dosen't have the brains god gave a goose".

	"If you are going to use a ________ you have to be smarter 
than the _________". (can be anything from a hammer to a 
gate).

One of mine:
	"He's not driving... He's just steering..."   (or she)
