Anagrams. Aren't they fun? the title for this post is, of course an anagram (concocted by the famous anagrammist Melvin O. Wellman. But you already knew that, im sure.) If you followed the link in my last post, then you already know what an anagram is. Good for you.
So how about a couple fun ones?

The Morse code - Here come dots
Slot machines - Cash lost in 'em
The end of the World is nigh! - Down this hole, frightened. (Donald L Holmes)
One good turn deserves another. - Do rogues endorse that? No, never! (J. Yeoman)
Clint Eastwood - Old West action.
William Shakespeare - I am a weakish speller.
Marilyn Manson - Manly man? No sir! (Tom Myers)
President Bush of the USA - A fresh one, but he's stupid (Richard Grantham)


this ones long...
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. (Cory Calhoun)

It's Been A Long Time...




I shouldn't of left you, without a dope rhyme to step to. (If you don't know the reference, go back to '86 and punch yourself in the face.)

We'll do it live, fuck it. For whatever reason, Summer and I couldn't see eye to eye (more on this momentarily), and my wondrous witticisms were forced to go on temporary hiatus. Irregardless, I'm goin' in. On the real, there's too much happenin' for me to be posted up, watchin' the world fall apart. Mad ups to Zoop for holdin' down the spot like a champ. From here on in, I'm unleashing terror like the Seventh Seal's been opened.


BONUS-- The actual list of Summer's grievances:

  • I'm hotter than the sun.

  • She wanted me to wear a crochet hat and pants.

  • I told her I don't fuck with her new "Global Warming" look.

  • I didn't sell as many albums as Wayne.

  • Back in '96, me and Lauryn Hill went and drank some mango juice with Polaris. Needless to say since Summer and The Sun are HEAVY in the streets, she was fumin' and hasn't forgiven me since. Or tango'd in Paris.

A guessing game invented by bored astronauts.

A Pangram is a phrase using all 26 letters of the alphabet.

The most widely known pangram I can think of would probably be: The quick brown fox jumps over a lazy dog.
So, for your amusement, I have assembled a list of pangrams for your viewing pleasure.

Sixty zippers were quickly picked from the woven jute bag.
Crazy Fredrick bought many very exquisite opal jewels.
Pack my box with five dozen liquor jugs.
How quickly daft jumping zebras vex.
Quick zephyrs blow, vexing daft Jim.
Waltz, nymph, for quick jigs vex bud.
The five boxing wizards jump quickly.

Also, there is such a thing as a perfect pangram, which is really just an anagram of the alphabet. Here are a couple few.

Mr. Jock, TV quiz PhD, bags few lynx.
Blowzy night-frumps vex'd Jack Q.
TV quiz drag nymphs blew JFK cox.

if you have any good ones to add to the list, feel free.
