Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: The cannon-ball story was made up about 10 years ago, along with a whole bunch of other bogus stories about common expressions. A brass monkey is just that. If you prefer, you can refer to the more genteel version, "It's cold enough to freeze the buds off a brass rose bush" |
