INDIAN EXPRESSION
AFTER AN INDIAN HAS MADE A BOAST AND HAS BEEN
PROVEN TO HAVE NO ABILITY IN HIS BRAG. THE RETORT GIVEN
BY HIS SKEPTICS WOULD BE, "OH, YES, AND THE GROUND WAS
UNEVEN."
Submitter comment:
THIS COMES FROM AN OLD STORY OF A PROSTITUTE. IN
ORDER TO TANTILIZE THE PROSPECTS, SHE WOULD DANCE AND
GYRATE HOPING TO GAIN A CUSTOMER. ONE SUCH GIRL WAS
NOT TALENTED AT THE DANCING AND THE EXCUSE SHE GAVE
WAS THAT THE GROUND WAS NOT SMOOTH, BUT RATHER
UNEVEN.
