What will I write today? How about: Air Witty, Hallowed Wit

Actually, the question and answer is all one in the same.

Rearranging the phrase 'What will I write today' becomes: 'Air Witty, Hallowed Wit', which is the focus of today's post.

In doing some research for a possible upcoming blog post, I stumbled across something I thought was pretty cool, but not something you think much about – anagrams

It’s pretty interesting (at least I think so, because it's like a puzzle) to see what you can come up with just by rearranging some letters and seeing if the meaning of the new word relates in anyway to the word you started with.

For instance, anagramming Clint Eastwood, you get ‘Old West Action’, which ties in nicely with some of his movie roles – A Fistful of Dollars, The Outlaw Josey Wales, The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.

I found a website - www.anagramgenius.com, where you can download their trial anagram software and decided to find out what the title of this blog ‘Awkward Mornings Beat Boring Nights’ would turn into.

But first, I tried out one of the most commonly known phrases in the English language to see how much meaning related back to the original phrase:

Yankees Suck turns into Yes ace skunk (Hey, it's Roger Clemens and Andy Pettite). Man, this really works.

Here’s some of the more interesting phrases for my blog:

"Now stabbing hard-working mastering."

If the word ‘mastering’ is referring to writing and the laborious process of writing, I am definitely stabbing it to death, as evidenced by the content of this blog.

There were many phrases that included stabbing, such as:

"Warm stabbing stranger hoodwinking”;

"Hot wreaking and stabbing ringworms."

Ringworms need to be stabbed – they are itchy muther fucka’s

"Now grabbing now stirring death mask."

I’ll need the death mask to kill the ringworms and this blog (though this entry is doing a good job of that all by itself).

"Weird know-nothing as smart grabbing.”

That’s me, the weird know-nothing whose grabbing ass smartly (oh, wait that’s probably not what that means)

"I'm shrewd, stabbing, arrogant knowing."

Thank you very much. I’ll take that as a complement.

"Now darkening bright warm boastings."

I now have the title of my next blog

Anagramming Tony Hubbard reveals some not so flattering information about my body:

"Hub 'n' tar body."

"Horny, bad but."

"Horny bud tab."
,

Lies, all of it. I do not have a tar body with a bad butt. Though the bud(weiser) part might have some truth to it.

And then there’s:

"Hurt band boy."

No, I was not the loser who went to band camp, though the band camp girl from American Pie was pretty hot.

Finally, the anagram report not only provides you with new phrases of existing words, but gives you the longest phrases they could come up with using the phrases that you’ve anagrammed:

One of the longest phrases for “Awkward Mornings Beat Boring Nights” was:

Downright-boring

Not nice at all.
