"To Run Around Like A Headless Chicken"

Sometimes if a chicken has its head cut off, it may still run around for a while, but of course, without being able to see or know where it is going.

"To Have A Lot On One’s Plate"......

It basically means to have a lot of tasks or problems under your responsibility.

homoe??? Was this idiom born out of filmdom???
It seems like it's some kind of movie line..... (I'm curious).

Funny you should ask!

My mother used this often and she meant that if a man broke a woman's heart they'd be hell to pay.

Then once someone said they had thought it was a bible verse.

I am not sure if it's every been used in a movie but it may well of been.

......Light At The End Of The Tunnel......

"Go For Broke"

To risk everything in order to achieve the result you want.

If I had to narrow any one saying down to my ALL TIME favorite expression,, ,,,, ,,,,, then, it's this one. I say it so often. :balloon:

I'd say it's more like ..... lack of vision? Planning? Or, maybe even Dumb Luck??? But it's completely possible that it might be because of some factor of unforeseen level of stupidity.

What do you think???

Yup I enjoy this one as well! When one really wants something BAD why not take a leap of faith and risk it all........nothing ventured nothing gainned :fastdraq:
