"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." - William Shakespeare

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

Palindrome= A word or phrase that reads the same forward or backward*
example: "RADAR" (or a more simple example for those with less RAM: "I")

1) Was it a car or a cat I saw
2) Ten animals I slam in a net
3) Madam, in Eden, I'm Adam



* as opposed to Palingnome, which is a very close friend under 3 feet tall

Funny... There seems to be a lot of alcohol in there, and by that I mean ale.

My favorite palindrome:

Do good? I? No! Evil anon I deliver. I maim nine more hero-men in Saginaw. Sanitary swrod a-tuck... Carol, I... Lo! Rack! Cut a drowsy rat in Aswan. I gas nine more hero-men in Miami. Reviled, I (Nona) live on, I do, O God.

Do not ask me how I can remember that one.

Sometimes the habañeros have their revenge! I always save an ice cream cone for last, so later on it's "Come on, ice cream..."

I always remember the palindrome Napoleon is supposed to have said

Able was I, ere I saw Elba

And just to add something more to the mixing pot a mnemonic. Pi to twenty decimal places.

Pie.
I wish I could determine pi,
Eureka cried the great inventor,
Christmas pudding, Christmas pie,
Is the problems very center.

Just count the number of letters in the words.

Or from my recent French lessons

"Je vais, I'm on my way"

"Je vais" translates as "I'm going".

[minstrel]

Up to this point, I get it:


Or from my recent French lessons
"Je vais, I'm on my way"
"Je vais" translates as "I'm going".
How is this related to the preceding? It's neither a palindrome nor an anagram and if counting the number of letters is supposed to reveal something, you've lost me.

The Pi thing was pretty cool, though... never saw that one before.

[carbonize]

Because Je vais sounds like I'm on my way in a weird screwed up kinda way and as you know thats the type of guy I am.

The letter counting was for the pi mnemomic only. I did once know a mnemomic for remembering all the kings and queens of England in the right order and what era they were rulers in. But as it serves no purpose I forgot all of it except "wit wins hens" which is William I, William II and Henry II. probably wrong mind you.

Love that one! Here's a nice little mnemonic tool for those of us who take a soldering iron to a circuit board once in a while. Remember the color code for resistors? Black=0, Brown=1, Red=2, Orange=3, Yellow=4, Green=5, Blue=6, Violet=7, Grey=8, White=9. How about the easy way to remember the color order? "Bad boys rape our young girls but Violet gives willingly."

[carbonize]

lol that reminds me of both the rainbow anagram, Richard of york gave battle in vain, and the mnemonic for remembering what the lines are in guitar sheet music, Every Good Boy Deserves Football.


***Don't know which mod editted this post but you could of at least chose an F word that made sense. I've changed it to football now as that was the nice version I got taught.***

No way.. not me! :c) I employed a David Bowie style cut-up words and letters technique!

Yep, that's how sad I am!! ;-)

PS. Mind you.. saying that... the 'nail-biting' quote (http://www.webproworld.com/viewtopic.php?p=49794#49794) above came from www.anagramgenius.com (which does offer a software program for generating anagram solutions!)
