My Cliches

I have several hackneyed phrases I have used to the point of monotony. Here are a few.

One, "Huzzah". It's a term from the Revolutionary War period that I like.

Two, every time I get a headache, I say, "I never get a headache". I guess headaches erase my memory.

Three, "May all your grandchildren be twins". I use it as a phrase of blessing. I like the way it makes people think.

Four, Ruth's least favorite of my redundancies, "I don't have anything smart to say about that." Actually, I truly don't have anything smart to say about that.
