We all use these expressions to a greater or lesser extent because they are helpful. They constitute a kind of verbal shorthand by which we can express our intentions and our emotions. We are “on cloud nine” or “in the pink.” We are “under the weather” or “at sixes and sevens.” Sometimes “things pan out,” or they just aren’t “up to snuff.”We know what we mean when we say these things, but we don’t always know what we’re talking about. How did these expressions come into the language? What are we really saying when we’re “happy as a clam” or “three sheets to the wind”?This book intends to give you some of the answers—while at the same time letting you have some fun. Three possible explanations as to origin are given for each commonly used expression. Only one is correct, and a number on the page that follows will tell you which one it is. The other two are simply fabrications, which I made up to confuse you.See if you can figure out which is which. See if you can “separate the wheat from the chaff.”CFA

In 101 Reflections, Dennis Lynn has adapted his teaching style to the written page. He uses personal experiences and simple illustrations to teach biblical truth dealing with everyday life experiences and challenges. His purpose is to challenge, encourage, comfort, and entertain the reader. For the first twelve years of his professional life, Dennis Lynn worked as a teacher and a coach on a secondary level in the public schools of South Carolina. For six of those years he had the opportunity to work under the leadership of a high school coaching legend in South Carolina, Coach Willie Varner. Coach Varner said, "I do not care how much you know or how well you can draw plays on the board. All I care about is how much you can teach the young men under your direction." This proved to be a valuable lesson Dennis took with him into ministry. From the beginning of his ministry, Dennis realized people in the pew were not interested in how much he had learned in seminary or how vast a theological vocabulary he had. They wanted someone who could take the Word of God and present it in a manner they could understand and apply in their daily lives. For thirty years, Dennis has faithfully provided this type of teaching.
