HAHAHA! That was great. My favorites:
7. He was as tall as a six-foot, three-inch tree.
18. Even in his last years, Granddad had a mind like a steel trap, only one that had been left out so long, it had rusted shut.
20. The plan was simple, like my brother-in-law Phil. But unlike Phil, this plan just might work.
22. He was as lame as a duck. Not the metaphorical lame duck, either, but a real duck that was actually lame, maybe from stepping on a land mine or something.
24. It was an American tradition, like fathers chasing kids around with power tools.
Thanks for the link!
