Does anyone know where I can find an extensive list of idioms with or
without "meanings" or comparisons (see below) either in book form or on the Web?
Comparison of idioms can be quite amusing. (I DO have a life. Really!) For
example, it's bad to have someone *on your back*, but it's good if they are
*on your side* and it's good when they are *backing you.*
