Dunno.

But I need help finding a book too.

I am looking for a book that has all the sayings in it like:

See the forrest through the trees

Half of one dozen or the other

Pig and a poke in the eye

ect ect...does one like that exist.

Not an internet site but a real book I can tote around with me.

Two titles for you, off my bookshelf.

The 2,548 Best Things Anybody Ever Said (many amusingly illustrated) — Robert Byrne

America’s Popular Sayings — Gregory Titelman

Look at your local bookshop or you can buy online at Amazon.com

Hope that helps.

Half of one dozen or the other

"Six dozen of one or half of the other."

There. Fixed it.
