: : My mother use to use this expression. By the way, she grew up in Indiana.
: How did she use the expression? As in, "This is like driving a herd of turtles"?
I have a friend who says "Thundering along like a herd of turtles" when we are delayed or slow getting somewhere. I find it highly amusing and descriptive. My friend is an Oregonian with an Alabama-born mother, so who knows where she learned it.
