Would you *please* remember to give him his pills, Mary.

        o I'm Helene Berg!



#5 of 110 by bjorn on Thu Oct 26 19:39:43 1995:

Then it should be started within itself, no?


#6 of 110 by remmers on Thu Oct 26 19:55:43 1995:

Ah...


#7 of 110 by chelsea on Thu Oct 26 20:16:23 1995:

Is this going to be yet another excursion down
logic lane where there is no ultimate destination
just a lot of Burma Shave signs extolloing the
value of the journey?

Blue potatoes all.


#9 of 110 by robh on Fri Oct 27 02:15:30 1995:

They're obviously anagrams, but of what?


#10 of 110 by janc on Fri Oct 27 02:37:42 1995:

East Denver = Steve Andre


#11 of 110 by birdlady on Fri Oct 27 02:43:04 1995:

Re #9:  What makes you think they're anagrams?


#12 of 110 by janc on Fri Oct 27 02:48:24 1995:

German Rock = Mark Conger

The restive male looks like another Steve, and the kind monarch looks like
another mark.  Maybe.


#13 of 110 by janc on Fri Oct 27 02:50:00 1995:

Opps!  A Restive Male is not a Steve after all.  Either that or there
is one more Steve on our board than anyone knew about.


#14 of 110 by janc on Fri Oct 27 02:52:56 1995:

A Kind Monarch = Dan Romanchik


#15 of 110 by chelsea on Fri Oct 27 02:53:20 1995:

It's Valerie Mates.


#16 of 110 by janc on Fri Oct 27 02:53:51 1995:

Clear Urn = Rane Curl


#17 of 110 by chelsea on Fri Oct 27 02:53:58 1995:

Burma Shave.


#18 of 110 by janc on Fri Oct 27 02:57:17 1995:

Rare Gun Cog = Greg Cronau


#19 of 110 by birdlady on Fri Oct 27 03:03:38 1995:

Oh wait...I get it now.  =)

But what is "Martian Death?"


#26 of 110 by gregc on Sat Oct 28 07:48:17 1995:

Orgy Bar is Rob Argy.
Stark Gnu Man is Marc Unangst. (Nice computer reference, I was all set to
give tou a "well done" on that one, but then I remembered that Marc spells
his name with a "c", not a "k".)

#29 of 110 by steve on Sat Oct 28 22:42:19 1995:

   I can only get the first one.

  You wrote tools for this?  Are they public?  This is neat.


#30 of 110 by robh on Sun Oct 29 04:16:16 1995:

I have, you recognize anagrams when you see them.  >8)

Martian Death =
  I'm Dan at heart
  Damn, I hate art.
  Amaranth tide.

I still haven't a clue what "martian death" is.  It seems that the harder it
is to find a good anagram for something, the easier it is to reverse the
process.


#36 of 110 by zook on Mon Oct 30 03:44:53 1995:

Only one "z" in the lists - I think I'm safe :-)
