Silly sayings

So where to phrases come from?

Cuter then a bugs ear-
Whole nine yards-
Buy a new "ALBUM"
Mind your P's and Q's

Most of these phrases are out of date--

Much like Your Phone is RINGING (phones beep now a days)
Or Dial a number - you can't Dial anymore.

What are some phrases you know that are out of date.
