On a scale of 1to10, palindromes are neat and a little trippy. Since we’ve been talking about dates anyway, and my buddy Jim just brought this to my attention, I thought I’d share it with you. Today is January 11th, 2010. 01/11/10
011110
Sweet. I’ve always liked palindromes. For the uninitiated, they’re words that spell out the same way in either direction. Simple ones are words like mom, or dad. A favorite one of mine that I learned in the 10th grade goes as follows:
“Satan oscillate my metallic sonatas”
Do you have a favorite palindrome or word game? If so, please share it in the comments so we can all enjoy. In the meantime, enjoy this great example of Nerd Rock by They Might Be Giants: “I Palindrome I” (notably not a palindrome, which is part of the fun.)
