23rd Oct 2011 The Fun Of Language - Palindromes

Oct 23A
Palindromes are interesting because they read the same forwards and backwards. While phrases are common, complete sentences are rare. The first palindrome that I saw was: Madam, I'm Adam, then I saw the longer version: Madam, in Eden I'm Adam. Since then I found ten more of the best palindromes:
  • Live not on evil
  • Rise to vote, sir!
  • Do geese see God?
  • Lisa Bonet ate no basil
  • Dennis and Edna sinned
  • Murder for a jar of red rum
  • A man, a plan, a canal, Panama!
  • No, it never propagates if I set a gap or prevention
  • Tim made us sign it 'Lover'-a revolting issue, dammit!
  • Doc note: I dissent. A fast never prevents a fatness. I diet on cod.
