Been hearing that in eastern NC since I was a child Bill or actually
"raining like a cow PXXXXXX on a flat rock".  Maybe your dad took a trip 
down south some time.  LOL

Maybe I can provide a fresh one for you, Charlie, although I'm tuning in
late on this thread and maybe it's already been posted out there:

"It's raining like a cow on a flat rock."

I've not heard that one anyplace but from my dad, although it usually brings
a smile when I use it amongst farmers.

Hi Phil,  That's a good one but I've got to tell you I haven't read ANY of
these old expressions that I haven't heard somewhere before.  LOL.  I think
the regional aspects of American/Candian life have mostly disappeared!
