Where does the apparently rude phrase given below originate?

"its cold enough to freeze the balls off a brass monkey"

Also what activity do the following phrases come from

"Kicking the bucket"
"Money for old Rope"
"Pulling your leg"

Dunno, dunno, dunno, and it is . . . nope, dunno.

Okay, so I'm cheating. But I really don't know and Yahoo! wasn't to helpful . . .

Might revisit this if I get more time.
