Palindromes

[morningstar]

OK people if you don't know yet a palindrome is basically a word that sounds the same either way you say it eg. BOB, RADAR. What others can you think of?

First off, I think you should have posted this in Anything But.

You should read Crazy English.

In it, there's an interview with the self-reflecting Doctor Otto Rotcod. LOL!

Mum, Dad - obviously!
Glenelg
Rise to vote sir (yes, I stole it from the simpsons - no that is not a palindrome!)

[thalbergmad]

redivider
rotavator

[general disarray]

More challenging, try entire sentences.  Such as this Napoleon quote:

"Able was I ere I saw Elba."

[thalbergmad]

If i remember correctly from an old edition of the Guiness Book of Records, someone actually wrote a 4000 word book that was a palindrome.

What a sad git.

Someone once said of Reger that his music, like his name, spelt the same backwards as it did forwards...

[Etude]

There's a palindromic novel, apparently, called 'Dr Awkward & Olson in Oslo'.

This is in anything but! Isn't it...?

[db05]

This is in anything but! Isn't it...?

I found it PF website. But it got moved here.

[ahinton]

I'm rather surprised that this thread has reached double figures without even a mention of Sarah...

Best,

Alistair

[thalbergmad]

Perhaps because Sarah is not a palindrome.

Thal

[ahinton]

Perhaps because Sarah is not a palindrome.

Thal

Ah, perhaps so - but then for me, Sarah is a most glorious and wonderful soprano, whereas the Sarah to whom I drew brief attention here is the kind of person who'd be Palin into insignificance by comparison...

Now how about that, then?...

Best,

Alistair

[thalbergmad]

Oh, i see now.

Sometimes your wit is beyond me.

Probably everyone else as well.

Thal

[ahinton]

Oh, i see now.

Sometimes your wit is beyond me.

Only sometimes? Well, that's a relief!...

Probably everyone else as well.

Thal

Everyone else is also beyond you? Never mind - you'll get over that somehow...

Best,

Alistair

Oh. Oops!

[pianochick93]

No sir, away! A papaya war is on!

Haha, for once I think me and ahinton were on the same wavelength...dude preempted my joke here.

[debussy symbolism]

Eat this...

Look ma, I won. I know it is not a palindrome, but whatever.

[morningstar]

LOL. what is it then?

[Bob]

Interesting.  Me too then. 

Check it out.  Bob, spelled backwards.

There is another thread on palindrones by the way....  Do geese see god?  Something about red, I forget.  A plan, a man, a canal... Panama... or whatever it is.  Darnit.

[lostinidlewonder]

I've always liked this:

Satan oscillate my metallic sonataS
\
didn't someone write an entire book which was a palindrome? I think Thal was onto something there

[debussy symbolism]

I meant that if you read the sentence backward it would for another sentence.

[morningstar]

I meant that if you read the sentence backward it would for another sentence.

Yeah it would say "Now I am kool." Nice spelling lol

"A man, a plan, a canal... Panama!" sides reversed is "A man, a plan, a canal... Panama!" 

Let's see if I can remember some from the interview with Doctor Rotcod:

Q: Favorite car?
A: Race car?
Q: No, sedan.
A: A Toyota.
Q: Second choice?
A: Civic.

Q: Some advice?
A: Live not on evil.

There's also something like this, don't remember where I read it.
"Madam, I'm Adam."
