When the chips are down...a translation
Posted: Thu Jan 13, 2005 10:30 am
Hello:)
Ok, the issue at hand is the translation of "When the chips are down, the buffalo is empty." This is a play on words of a commonly known expression that was then "Native-ized"
You see, when a buffalo uses the bathroom, the large, all-natural, buffalo scented landmines it leaves behind are called buffalo chips.
Therfore:
"When the chips are down, the buffalo is empty."
