As nutty as a fruit cake.

As clear as mud.

As clear as dishwater.

As shiny as a new pin.

As brave as a Lion. 

As brown as a Berry.

As slippery as an eel.

As white as a sheet.

As flat as a pancake.

As mad as a hatter.

As skinny as a rake.

As bald as a Badger.

As true as I'm standing here.

As weak as a kitten

As playful as a puppy
