Happy As A Clam

I fear I will never experience pure joy, as I don't indulge in shellfish. . .sigh. But I am enjoying the new spin on some old sayings. Thanks for waking up my brain this morning, Ad Contrarian!

Anon: The good news -- you can share their joy without ingesting them.

Glad you like the new blog.

Wow - I'm really surprised by your data here. Certain Cuttlefish have no natural predators, which always led me to believe that they were the truly more joyful than clams which are nearly always at great peril due to the enormous seagull population, but I'll be damned. I stand corrected. Nice work.-ÇÇ

Not that I know anything about the English language, but I believe the correct statement is:

"Happy as a clam at high tide"

Does this change the graph?

CRL: That would require a third axis and I only paid for two.
