	pieanne  #178827  Wed, 04 Jan 06 10:01 AM Given the kind of boy Fregly is, maybe you can take it literally: one of his occupations in actually putting dirt into his ears... If it's an idiom, I've never heard it.    pieanne Joined on Thu, Jan 20 2005 South of France ...But I'm Belgian! Veteran Member (7,512) I'm glad to help, but I'm not a native!
