I recognize a lot of these. Some of the expressions have been re-tooled to fit a particular dialect. Just Jan, I have heard, " to hell in a handbasket." Where I'm from we wear pantyhose. In other places they are called nylons. We wore house-shoes. To others, they are referred to as slippers. I wore a house-coat. Someone else might call it a robe. Nobody has mentioned names for body parts, for the sake of not being too crude, I'll simply say that we referred to our southern region as our private... for one. I've heard a lot of other interesting names for it though.
How about, "He don't know sh_t from Shinolah?" Or, "He's about as crooked as a three-dollar bill?" Or "He was fast as greased lightning."
My girlfriend had been raised in the north, and we took a road trip down south to visit my family. We passed a road sign that said, "speed limit 55, the law." She got the biggest kick out of that. Down south we call policemen, "the law."
