Assorted Tomfoolery Thursday: On anagrams, book happiness and the porn crusade.
This week brings forth a veritable cornucopia of tomfoolery. First on the list, a rather snarky anagram generator suggested by Noelle. My anagram? “Hokey, Claimless Male.” I tried a few more with great results:
- Albus Dumbledore - “A bulbous meddler.”
- Gandalf the Grey - “Deftly anger hag.”
- Hermione Granger - “Ignore her German.”
- Walt Whitman - “Ham twit lawn.”
- Holden Caulfield - “Ill-founded leach.”
And perhaps my favorite…- George W. Bush - “He grew bogus.”
On another text-based note, here’s a video that’s quickly gaining popularity in circles of book-lovers.
And a last interesting piece to share - GOOD Magazine shared an article earlier this week on the “anti-porn crusade” undertaken by some current GOP candidates (Romney, Santorum, Gingrich) to save the institution of marriage. While I do feel that pornography is a controversial subject, this article absolutely hits the nail on the head by pointing out the obvious elephant in the room… that porn probably isn’t the problem at all.
“The key to preserving the age-old institution is bolstering the newest, most passionate spokespeople for marriage: gays and lesbians. In a logical world, you’d think Republicans would be jumping at the chance to support a population that upholds traditional values and is just itching to don a tux or a wedding dress. ”
