Fun and Easy?
A new mixed metaphor from my new friend Adele:
It's like shooting fish in a barrel of monkeys.

[Can't think of a punny title]
A few more have been running through my head. For some reason I really like the last one. The first one reminds me of Happy Days.
You made your bed, now sit on it!
Leave no stone un-squeezed
Don't count your chickens before walking on eggshells
Don't count your chickens before the horse.
You made your bed, now sit on it!
Leave no stone un-squeezed
Don't count your chickens before walking on eggshells
Don't count your chickens before the horse.

Mixed Metaphors of a Feather Flock Together
A stone in the hand killed two birds in the bush
Silly goose chase
Cut to the wild goose chase
Silly goose chase
Cut to the wild goose chase

You call that daily!?!?
Yea yea, I know. I've been delinquent in my mixed metaphors. however, I have a lot of friends that are much more productive than me. Here is a new batch that I hope you will enjoy:
From me:
What's good for the goose isn't good for a wild goose chase.
You dropped the ball, and now it's in your court.
Another day, another dollar short.
From Rob:
Don't throw stones in a glass bottom boat.
All bark and no bite makes Jack a dull boy.
Let's get straight to beating around the bush.
(That last one reminds me of one from the Rutles: "he grabbed the wrong end of the stick, and preceded to beat around the bush with it.")
From Jen M:
Someone asked me, "Hey do you have tickets to the gun show? Cuz those pythons are sick!" Hello mixed metaphor!
From Gio:
A glass half full is better than no loaf at all.
Up shit creek without a pot to piss in.
I just thought of one:
People who see the glass as half full shouldn't throw stones.
