<br>Many of the old rural/farm expressions are unknown to younger (urban) people
<br>today or they misuse them. I frequently hear "it's a hard road to hoe."  or
<br>"It's a question of whose oxen (ox) is gored." can't think of any more now,
<br>but they turn up all the time, especially here in NYC where many people have
<br>never been to a farm.
