I had to google Nisei and Wigger Day, hadn't heard of       *that* Notre Dame before, and not of Alamogordo, either. And I'm not       sure about the justification of some of the insults (cow? pig?), but I       enjoyed them just the same.              (Oh, and I realized that the caption is part of the LHS only when I       threw the whole beast in an anagram checker.)              An amazing piece of work, far beyond my capabilities (or at least beyond       the patience I am willing to devote to a single anagram), but it made me       wonder: What could I do with just the letter codes of the 50 states? See       for yourself:              AL AK AZ AR CA CO CT DE FL GA HI ID IL IN IA KS KY LA ME MD MA MI MN MS       MO MT NE NV NH NJ NM NY NC ND OH OK OR PA RI SC SD TN TX UT VT VA WA WV       WI WY       =       Excavating caveman finds mammoth lizard.       Savvy downtown communists kidnap my jackal.       What rich men want: Drink only milk.              To make the letters say something relevant about the US instead is left       as an exercise for the reader. :o)              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
