Whether it's like a bump on a log or a bat out of hell, these expressions have been around forever, but we've never really known why ... until now! Finally Dr. Funk explains more than 400 droll, colorful, and sometimes pungent expressions of everyday speech. Derived from classical sources, historic events, famous literature, frontier humor, and the frailties of humankind, each of these sayings has an interesting story behind its origin. If you've ever wondered why when you're in a hurry you are told to hold your horses, wonder no more!

Book excerpt: High School is Heaven It's Betsy Ray's freshman year at Deep Valley High School, and she and her best childhood chum, Tacy Kelly, are loving every minute. Betsy and Tacy find themselves in the midst of a new crowd of friends, with studies aplenty (including Latin and--ugh--algebra), parties and picnics galore, Sunday night lunches at home--and boys! There's Cab Edwards, the jolly boy next door; handsome Herbert Humphreys; and the mysteriously unfriendly, but maddeningly attractive, Joe Willard. Betsy likes them all, but no boy in particular catches her fancy until she meets the new boy in town, Tony Markham . . . the one she and Tacy call the Tall Dark Handsome Stranger. He's sophisticated, funny, and dashing--and treats Betsy just like a sister. Can Betsy turn him into a beau? An entertaining picture of school clubs, fudge parties, sings around the piano, and Sunday-night suppers in Betsy's hospitable home.' 'Chicago Tribune.

The grown-ups think they will quarrel, but they don't. Sometimes they quarrel with Betsy's and Tacy's bossy big sisters, but they never quarrel among themselves. They are not as good as they might be. They cook up awful messes in the kitchen, throw mud on each other and pretend to be beggars, and cut off each other's hair. But Betsy, Tacy, and Tib always manage to have a good time. Ever since their first publication in the 1940s, the Betsy-Tacy stories have been loved by each generation of young readers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After a three-decade career of writing humorous, nostalgic books, stories, articles, and columns about the Great Outdoors, country living, hunting and fishing, raising kids, praising God, and enjoying life, Robert Hitt Neill turns to telling a real-life Love Story of his 55-year marriage to Betsy, "The Most Beautiful Girl in the World." Once nominated for Southern Gentleman of the Year, Robert Hitt Neill, like any other Southern Gentleman, admits to having "Married Above Myself" to Betsy, a Beauty Queen at Ole Miss, a school renowned for the beauty of its Co-eds. "Betsy Hahpuh" survived being a Navy wife, becoming the Mistress of Brownspur Plantation during the times of bountiful harvests or drought and record-rain falls, raising three children with the Neill Brand as well as their friends, enduring being written-about by her prolific storyteller husband, then accompanying him to prison -- in the world's largest prison ministry! "The Book of Betsy: Forever 19," is an epic real-life Love Story of a couple upon whom God poured out many Joyous Blessings as they dealt with the many hardships and heartbreaks of life, ending with the tragic death of Betsy the week of their 55th Anniversary. But life doesn't end there, nor does this book. As Bob seeks to catch Covid, so as to join Betsy in Heaven, he has an unexpected lunch meeting with her Ole Miss sorority sister, roommate, and best friend, Cindy. There follows an "Epilogue: Can There Be Love After Love?" Here is a hint: "Yes!"

And from the moment they meet at Betsy's fifth birthday party, Betsy and Tacy becoms such good friends that everyone starts to think of them as one person—Betsy-Tacy.

And one day, they come home to a wonderful surprise—a new friend named Tib. Ever since their first publication in the 1940's, the Betsy-Tacy stories have been loved by each generation of young readers.
