I googled the phrase and it originated in the US in a poem called "The
Blind Man and the Elephant"by John G. Saxe where he used the phrase in
"Sonnett to a Clam".
I know I am happy as a clam when I am feasting on a bucket of steamers!

Alas, still no answer to my inquiry "How happy is a clam?".  Mayhap a
3-day weekend will put me back on a serious track. NOT!
