This made me smile
I love word games and when I saw this one, I had to share. It was in the online comment section of our local paper in response to a right wing nut...



Weird Word Tricks

Did you know that the words "race car" spelled backwards still spells "race car"? Weird huh?

Did you know that "eat" is the only word that, if you take the 1st letter and move it to the last, spells its past tense, "ate"?

And if you rearrange the letters in "so-called tea party Republicans," and add just a few more letters, it spells: "STFU you freeloading, progress-blocking, benefit grabbing, resource-sucking, stone hearted, violent, hypocritical greedy a$$holes, and face the fact that you nearly wrecked the country under Bush." Wow! How weird is that?

2. And "polish" is the only word that changes meaning
and pronunciation when the first letter is capitalized. And if you write "republican" on a piece of paper, then hold it upside down in front of a mirror, it then reads "I don't want to kill you, I want you to be my slave." Words are fun.
