Subject: Okay....new topic.

Class discussion has lead to a question about a specific term used quite
often in the English language (at least, the English language to which I
am accustomed to listening).....the term "rat's ass" (i.e. I don't give a
rat's ass what he says!) What does it really mean? And where does it
originate? Also, are there any other terms that are similar in makeup
and usage?

Thanks
Jody
