egad a base tone.....
I was trying to come up with something to post about, and for some reason palindromes came up. I've been thinking about them for a while, thanks largely in part to They Might be Giants. The bigger they get, the more interesting they become. 'Bob' or 'Otto' probably isn't going to impress too many people, but spout something like 'Egad a base tone denotes a bad age', and people might start taking notice. Well nerdy people anyway. Wikipedia has quite a few good ones here.
It's a shame the word palindrome isn't one. That would be cool.
I tried coming up with one myself, but the best I could come up with was:
I never evil did, liver even I
I guess the hard part isn't coming up with one, it's coming up with one that makes one damn lick of sense. Maybe I should stick to the word search.
Anybody have any good ones? Anybody care? Was it a car or a cat i saw?

I've never been able to get into palindromes. Maybe I'm not smart enough. *shrug* But damn that's a long list of them at wikipedia! I liked the one that said, "Go hang a salami. I'm a lasagna hog."
But in short, I have none of my own. I am sorry.
Hi. This website has a poem which is also a palindrome:

Click on index, then new things, then a palindrome. Also you should look at his other poem which is all the words on a bottle of rolling rock in a different order.
