: : 1.empty vessels make the most sound.
: : 2.he stole his thunder.
: : 3.she's thirty if she's a day?
: 1. Similar to "an empty wagon makes the most noise." My interpretation -- a person who doesn't work as hard or isn't as useful tends to be the one who complains the most.
: 2. Took attention away from someone else. "John was pleased that he got all B's on his report card. But his sister announced that she had straight A's and stole his thunder." (I am guessing that relates to a myth the theft of a hammer from Thor the god of thunder. www.pitt.edu/ ~dash/thrym.html )
: 3. If she is even a day old (and obviously she is), then she has to be at least 30 years old.
