Palindromes are words and phrases that read the same forward and backward. For example, the well known classic: "A man, a plan, a canal: Panama!" Note that word spacing and punctuation don’t count; just the letters used. Sometimes you have to make up a contrived conversation these statements could have fitted in to. For example, in a conversation regarding popular cures for skin disorders, one of the participants could have responded to a suggestion by saying "Straw? No, too stupid a fad. I put soot on warts."
For some reason, I have liked palindromes since I was a kid. Only recently have I ever tried to make one up. I did not come up with any good ones, but one is kind of long, which is an attribute. Here are mine:
My hope is to make up some slicker ones, like some of my favorites, shown below.
Hundreds of palindromes have been made up and recorded. Many but not all are better than mine. If you would like to see more palindromes, here are links to some extensive sites:
