Just to totally miss the point of the entire post by commenting on a woman's looks, I gotta say that HRC looks pretty badass in that black leather coat.

That just sounds like a dude who's losing it. Pretty soon he'll start talking with a different accent...

I was actually in a balloon factory once. They inflated 1 out of every 1000 or so to test for quality. But you're almost right, the porcupine would not be very busy there. Anyway, it's a very OLD expression, I heard it from my Grandpa 50+ years ago, and he was almost 80 at the time. I was also in a coffin factory once, not far from Sedalia, MO. That was surprisingly interesting, and quite unforgettable. No porcupines there, though.

I like it too. He was full of old-timey expressions. My favorite was "Useless as tits on a boar." I had to ask my mother what it meant the first time I heard it. One day he said "cold as a witch's teat" and Grandma had a Methodist fit.
