You Know That Saying ... (T/F?)

Keeping Your Hands Clean' .....

Be innocent of any wrongdoing; stay out of trouble.

Origin however is an 18th century English phrase which referred specifically to the avoidance of corruption. Moral authorities of the time would have shuddered to use the word masturbation, but that is probably what they were getting at.

Schlemiel and Schlimazel (Yiddish).......

Yes they used to sing it on the opening of Lavern & Shirley but.......Schlemiel and Schlimazel are two Yiddish terms often used in a comical, but sometimes biting sense of humor. A Schlemiel is an inept clumsy person and a Schlimazel is a very unlucky person.

"When In Rome"...............

Something that you say which means when you are visiting another country, you should behave like the people in that country. Adapt yourself to the customs or requirements of certain situations.
