How do they know clams are happy? as in 'Happy as a clam?' I've never seen one I could tell if it was happy or not.
Well, now you have done it! You made me look that up on Google......and here is what it says............

The original quotation is from Colonial times and it read.........

"Happy as a clam at high tide." Eventually the "high tide" part was dropped. Guess they were happy because they couldn't be caught at high tide.

And however kind your invitation might be.......Clayton Clam will not be coming over for dinner! But Charlie Tuna just doesn't get it and he will probably show up!
