Anagrammage

After reading John Green's fabulous An Abundance of Katherines, I started thinking about anagrams.

Wordsmith's anagram generator states: All the life's wisdom can be found in anagrams. Anagrams never lie.

So what do you get when you anagram my name? I thought about it. Maybe something involving ink or skill or owls. Or will or win or lions (or loins).

So I typed in my name, and was confronted with a big long list of gibberish. Some of the strings included the above words, but none that really made any sense. Oh, and there was this one:

kill oil sin win

sounds like the US government's foreign policy, ne?

But what does it say about me???

  1. That anagram generator is SO AWESOME. I got like, thousands, and they were all hilarious.

    What about, "SILK ILL IN WINO." I thought that quite good. Something, barristers, something something, LOL.

    And while we're on the topic, how do you like The Age misspelling your goddamn name?! I hope you sent them a strident email.

  2. Meh, it's The Age. They misspelled 'Thursday' in Really Big Letters in the Green Guide last week...
