In England (or the US of A, or Australia, or... blah!) it might rain cats and dogs. But, apparently in France dogs and cats have better things to do (ahem!) than fall from the clouds(!). There, it rains cords - or ropes - (il pleut des cordes), as boring as it may sound, french would argue that it's a better imagination than falling cats and dogs. Although, in modern France, it rains like a cow who's pissing (il pleut comme une vache qui pisse)! A round of applause to the french imagination here, hein? to those who thought of a cow (with an unusually huge bladder) sitting on the clouds and... well... urinating! Albeit, I'd like to ask themwhy do cows in India urinate only from June to September (the period of 'rainy season' aka 'monsoon' in India)?
