It's something like "Mutton trying to be lamb."
Anyone? Bueller?

The saying is "Mutton dressed as lamb."
I am not aware of the etymology, but we'll asign that research to Atticus anyways. If he's busy, let's check with the assignments partner and see if BRC is available.
Unless things pick up here, it may be time to ask a few questions. We did geography yesterday, and history and grammar have been done to death. Maybe some good math questions.
