Almost every day I anagram a random comic strip text, which
generally consists of one text bubble, but sometimes more. As it turns out, each anagram somehow relates to my life, something
I saw or heard with a preference on the positive.
What is an anagram?
Take a word, any word, or any number of words, re-arrange the letters...here's
a link for automatic anagrams...but mine are not automatically generated...
My anagrams begin with randomly selected comic strip text. I'll pick
one a day, or sometimes use the same text for a couple of days. By themselves the anagrams are interesting enough,
but when used in conjunction with a small (though often boring) aspect of my life, one must wonder...how random is an anagrammed
life?
An example? From
My Journal entry dated 1-9-08:
Zits
is my random comic strip text choice today, because it's Cincinnati's Borgman. The text reads, “My
dad's computer monitor is the size of a dishwasher and don't even get me started on the speed of our internet connection.” My anagram was superbly fitting:
“On the net my phone account
shows another name, I edited around street address, got time Verizon comes, printed it, send off.”
Well, that is exactly what occurred
today. On the internet, when I went to put the repair order in, I could not change the name of the account, but could make
sure the address was in the complaint via an edit, I got a confirmation for what time they would be coming, printed the page,
so I would have a copy of the mistake on the page with the date and time, then sent the order in. Had I sent the order without
printing it out I would not be able to prove that was what occurred and that proves the anagram.
I do that a lot...I document
whenever possible, to connect everything with a "hands-on" proof that makes people wonder. So I try to do a journal entry
daily, too.
