I was at my beloved's college reunion this weekend, and I noticed a list of anagrams posted on one of the faculty members' door. Some I'd seen before, but others just amazed me. I had to get dragged away from it...

Well, imagine my surprise when the very same list popped out of the archive and slapped me in the face. *grin* Thanks to Marc Stress of SmileyMail for sending me this back in June of 1998.

Interesting Anagrams

Evangelist = Evil's Agent

Desperation = A Rope Ends It

The Morse Code = Here Come Dots

Slot Machines = Cash Lost in 'em

Animosity = Is No Amity

Mother-in-law = Woman Hitler

Snooze Alarms = Alas! No More Z's

Alec Guinness = Genuine Class

Semolina = Is No Meal

The Public Art Galleries = Large Picture Halls

I Bet A Decimal Point = I'm a Dot in Place

The Earthquakes = That Queer Shake

Eleven plus two = Twelve plus one

Contradiction = Accord not in it

This one's amazing:

[From Hamlet by Shakespeare]
To be or not to be: that is the question, whether tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune.

In one of the Bard's best-thought-of tragedies, our insistent hero, Hamlet, queries on two fronts about how life turns rotten.

George Herbert Walker Bush = Huge Berserk Rebel Warthog

George Bush = He bugs Gore

Ronald Wilson Reagan = A long-insane Warlord (or Insane Anglo Warlord)

Ronald Reagan = A darn long era

Margaret Thatcher = That great charmer And the grand finale:

"That's one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind." --Neil A. Armstrong

A thin man ran; makes a large stride; left planet, pins flag on moon! On to Mars!
