A whistlin' woman and a crowin' hen always come to some bad end.....

....or so my grandmother used to tell me. She tried to convince me it wasn't 'ladylike' for a female to whistle! I thought whistling was FANTASTIC!! I'll never forget walking home from school (think it was 1st or 2nd grade) and encountered an old man coming from the other direction. He asked me how I learned to whistle like that (I normally whistled all the way home) I proudly told him "my brother taught me!". From that day forward, Grandma's words fell on deaf ears when it came to whistling.......and to this day, I STILL WHISTLE!!
