Orson Welles As The Bard
a: Orson welles ~
b: Shakespeare
What: "Man oh man, some parents just don't understand that to a film lover, Orson Welles is like Shakespeare, Zeus, the devil, Daniel Webster and Colonel Kurz all rolled into one, and if their story is really a confession, then so is mine. Dad, Mom, I love ya."

Mr Wells As Overgrown Jungle
a: Orson welles ~
b: abandoning the tidiness of a garden
What: "Ironically because of their brilliance and glitter, the Olivier trilogy left the appetite unsurfeited, as though the true depths of Shakespeare's plays had not yet been plumbed. Thus, turning from the work of Olivier to that of the flamboyant Orson Welles is like abandoning the tidiness of an 18th-century garden for the tangled vines of a South American jungle."

Not Liking Orson Welles
a: Orson welles ~
b: not liking double stuffed oreos
What: "This kid is cool. Seriously he seems actually down to earth, and he likes Orson Welles. I mean I realize that not liking Orson Welles is like not liking double stuffed oreos- everyone likes him/them- but still. He has real live opinions."

METAMIA is a free database of analogy and metaphor. Anyone can contribute or search. The subject matter can be anything. Science is popular, but poetry is encouraged. The goal is to integrate our fluid muses with the stark literalism of a relational database. Metamia is like a girdle for your muses, a cognitive girdle.
