Since it comes close behind "hill of beans", I think "hold your breath" should also be acceptable.

Axe is mispelled (missing the 'e')

"Ax" is an alternate spelling of "axe". Both are acceptable. But I've never ever heard "keep your powder dry". And I vote NO on "hold your breath". That's not an idiom. "Hold your horses" is an idiom, because it has a non-literal meaning.

How about "Hold your tongue"?

Keep your powder dry refers to the old days of ball shot musket and cannons.... try firing with damp powder! Today's bullet casings keep the powder dry for you.

I agree, 'Don't hold your breath' would be, but not 'Hold your breath'.

Um... ax is a very archaic spelling of axe, axe is far more widely accepted... Seems odd, to say the least.

Ax/axe either way works... type the long form in and you get credit!

I've always heard "not worth a row of beans."
I've also heard "get off on the wrong track."
I think "hold your tongue" should be an acceptable answer as well.
Just suggestions, it was a great quiz!

Where I'm from we say, "firing on all fronts". It sort of means you're using every possible tactic to get what you want--full power. I suppose it's like a war reference.

I have never heard "That's the $64,000 question" before, I've always heard it as "That's the million dollar question". I guess you could say it with any form of monetary value, so I still go it right. Woot!
