Sure. Whatever you say, Chase.
It's been cloudy for days here. Finally, I see a bit of blue sky peeking through while making my appointed rounds today. And I could almost hear my Grandmother mentioning a Dutchman's breeches.
It occurred to me that I'd never really thought about what or where that saying came from. I mean, just how big an ole' boy is this Dutchman? Is he wearing bell-bottoms or swim trunks? Maybe they tend to be small men?
I gave up and googled it when I got off work. Turns out that it originated from sailors, who wore fairly loose pants. Dutchmen, however, really liked their pants nice and generous...and blue. The original saying was, 'two bits of blue sky big enough to patch a Dutchman's breeches'. (or something like that...depends on who's telling the story)
It's all relative, I suppose?
