Clammy as a Dead Fish

A handshake clammy as a dead fish is not meant to nourish or flourish It sends a signal to its receiver You’re much too eager a beaver

Right. And I don't shake hands. Historically, only men shake hands. It's associated with medieval knights.

eeeww! a clammy handshake is the worst. An eager beaver, perhaps. I try not to think about that clammy hand whenever I converse. Smiles, Sara
