Too Many Words

 There are sayings that I use that I don't know what category to put them in.

All is fair in love and war.

Better late than never

Better safe than sorry

Be there with bells on

Blown out of the water

Can't get a word in edgewise

Close only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades

Crazy as a loon

Fish or cut bait

 Getting up with the chickens

Greatest thing since sliced bread

He has a mind like a steel trap 

He who lives by the sword, dies by the sword. 

In like Flynn

In one ear and out the other

It's been a coon's age

It's nothing to sneeze at

It's water under the bridge

Living from hand to mouth

Missing the boat

Once in a blue moon

Passing the buck

Piece of cake

Sticks out like a sore thumb

There's a bee in your bonnet

Too many cooks spoil the broth

Tougher than whang leather

What goes around comes around

This doesn't quite fit in with what I was collecting, but it's a good saying:

You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink

Plus I'm getting tired of collecting.  It has been rather amusing to see what other people have found. 

Close but no cigar

Don't look a gift horse in the mouth 

Go big or go home

Healthy as a horse

I feel like death warmed over

Lollygagging (wasting time)

Not all it's cracked up to be

Over egg the pudding

Strike while the iron is hot

Thick as thieves

Jim's dad's favorites

It can rain pretty easy once it gets started

All signs fail in a drought
