So says the old description for someone profusely perspiring, but pigs don't sweat. Pigs do not possess sweat glands in their skin, which allow for the body
to cool down in hot temperatures. Pigs use
mud to wallow in to lower their internal temperature, preventing them
from overheating.

I have heard so many sweat lines, in casinos, but my alltime fav. is
"I'm sweatin' like a hamster in a gay bar" ....
Now that is SOME REAL worryin.
Good grief. Poor hamster. I used to be good friends w/ a gay guy from Kentucky and he absolutely hated gerbils. I never asked him why, was afraid he'd tell me! I watched "Amelia" the other night and Richard Gere was in it, and when I thought I'd go online to see what was said about the movie, I followed some links about Gere...and wish I hadn't. (some gerbil/hamster rumors)
I remembered one I use to hear all the time when I was a kid: "sweatin' like a (black guy) on Election Day". I never was too sure what that really meant; it was either in reference to voter intimidation OR maybe that the Democrats used to bus black people to the polls...several different polls, in fact.
I've heard some others:
"Wweatin' like the only hooker at a Shriners convention."
"Sweatin' like a fat kid in a cannibal camp.
"Sweatin' like a Cub Scout at Neverland."
I know I've heard more, but can't remember them right now. Prob. a good thing.
Thanks f/ posting!
Typos, sorry.
