Mixed Metaphors

I decided to go for a light post today. No Data Governance or Analytics allowed on the Friday of a long weekend! Enjoy, and add in others if you have them. Not all of these are original, but many are.

Hack of all trades (credit to my wife Lauren)
Green behind the ears (credit to Barack)
This isn’t rocket surgery
There’s no place like Rome
When in Rome, do as the Romanians do
I’m just talking out loud (also Lauren)
Walking on thin air
Skating on thin air
Treading on thin ice
Hit the wall running
Birds of a feather gather no moss
Burn that bridge when we come to it
Just water over the bridge
Death by a thousand paper clips
Up a tree without a paddle
Up a river without a leg to stand on
Wake up and smell the roses
Two’s a crowd and three’s company
Stop and smell the coffee
Don’t punch a gift horse in the mouth
Can’t lead a dead horse to water
It’s first and ten and we’re swinging for the fences
He took a shot in the dark and hit a grand slam
Give him enough rope to hang by a thread
They’re selling like hot potatoes
I don’t give a flying rat’s ass
A punter’s chance in hell

We could stand here and talk until the cows turn blue.
We have to get all our ducks on the same page.
