When pigs fly? The time is now with the Folkmanis mini winged piglet finger puppet. This velvety little piggy defies the laws of gravity. With a magnet in its nose, two of them can kiss or hang on your fridge.
A pig with wings stands for the thing that will never happen. As early as 1616 the English lexicographer John Withals recorded the phrase about pigs flying through the air tail first. Anyone using it means to rule something out, usually with a smile. Lewis Carroll picked the same image up again in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. As a character, the flying pig has shaken off that mockery and now stands for a wish nobody is willing to drop.
Did you know that almost every language keeps its own picture for the impossible? In French, hens have to grow teeth first; in German, Easter and Whitsun fall on the same day; and in English the pigs simply take off.
