Language has never been one of my favorite subjects but from the very moment I learned of palindromes, I was fascinated. I think maybe it's the symmetry that I find so alluring. It's almost like math but with letters instead of numbers.
I looked at a list of palindromes and picked out some of my favorites. These are my favorites from the first half of the list:
A car, a man, a maraca. A man, a plan, a canal: Panama. A man, a plan, a cat, a ham, a yak, a yam, a hat, a canal-Panama! A Santa at Nasa. A slut nixes sex in Tulsa. A Toyota’s a Toyota. Amy, must I jujitsu my ma? As I pee, sir, I see Pisa! Are Mac ‘n’ Oliver ever evil on camera? Bombard a drab mob. Bar an arab. Campus motto: Bottoms up Mac. Dammit, I’m mad! Delia saw I was ailed. Dennis and Edna sinned. Devil never even lived. Did Hannah see bees? Hannah did. Did I draw Della too tall, Edward? I did? Do geese see God? Doc, note, I Dissent. A fast never prevents a fatness. I diet on cod. Dog doo? Good God! Dr. Awkward Drab as a fool, aloof as a bard. Drawn, I sit; serene rest is inward. Dubya won? No way, bud. Ed, I hung a gnu hide! Egad! An adage! Elba Kramer saw I was remarkable. Eva, can I stab bats in a cave? Eve damned Eden. Mad Eve! Evil olive Evil rats on no star live. Ew! Eat a ewe? Flee to me, remote elf. Gnu dung. I prefer pi. I roamed under it as a tired, nude Maori. I’m a fool; aloof am I. In words, alas, drown I. Is it I? It is I! Lager, sir, is regal. Late metal. Lisa Bonet ate no basil. Lived on Decaf; faced no Devil. Lonely Tylenol.

ReplyDelete"Egad! An adage!" is one of my favs... it's a little bit trickier than some cos of the hard & soft "g" sounds. : )
Great point about the 'g' sounds!
ReplyDeleteIt's hard to pick a favorite but the jujitsu reference in "Amy, must I jujitsu my ma?" makes me smile.
But my overall favorite will be in the next batch. :-)
