I love mine!

But not as much as the ox and the eel, which are just great. **AFG** , you’re neat.

Thanks, **AmazonFloozyGoddess**. I finally got on-line and was able to see my anagram brought to life. Many of the others are even funnier.

Ok, all the pics are now reduced down to a manageable, fast-loading file size, so anyone who was trying to view these via dial-up and wanting to kick their monitor in can now view the pics in a much easier fashion.

They can now all be found [here](http://www.sirblah.com/misc/SDMBanagrams.htm).

Hey, watch me compose a message, preview it, and then go out food shopping without actually hitting “submit”, so I come back to find it still sitting here. 🙂

Amazin’, **Amazon**!

**AFG** , what’s the copyright status on these? Are we allowed to cafepress them once we get a cartoon made?

No prob. I get a certain amount of perverse pleasure out of optimizing images. (Well, fun ones, anyway.)

**_Amazing_ Floozy Goddess** , these are great! I’m rather partial to the eel, but there are so many with expressive faces, I don’t think I can truly pick a favorite. I’ve been through them twice and I’m still laughing. Thanks for doing these!

After looking at all of those I can’t help but feel that you should really try your hand at illustrating children’s books **AFG**. You’ve got a great sense of humor and a way of relating ideas through pictures that a lot of people, kids especially, would get a kick out of.

I’ve actually thought about that. I’m not sure I’d quite know where to begin though, plot-wise. Maybe someday. 🙂

**gardentraveler** , I realized that I meant to colour the eel in red but I completely forgot (you can’t _see_ that he’s a red eel). Sorry! 🙂

The eel is even better if you know rude Japanese and look at his sign - “Chinge” (pronounced Chin - gey) is a man’s pubic hair!!!

You could illustrate someone else’s writings, too. That might be ideal.

So, **AFG** , how does it feel to be a legend at such a young age?

Might I suggest some supervisory anagrams (Not that you don’t have enough to do already):  
**SkipMagic** : “I smack pig”

**Coldfire** : “Rifle doc”

**Giraffe** : “Fig fear”

**CK Dexter Haven** : “Kent hexed a VCR”

**Ed Zotti** : “Tit doze”

**Cecil Adams** : “Ed Acclaims,” “Acid Camels,” or “CIA calms Ed”

I love the “hokey Jew” illustration. My name doesn’t turn into anything interesting, so may I suggest other people? I got these from [www.anagramgenius.com](http://www.anagramgenius.com).

**pseudotriton ruber ruber** ~ “Terrorise burned out burp.”  
**Jackknifed Juggernaut** ~ “Judge jerk fanatic gunk.”  
**honeydewgrrl** ~ “Grey nerd howl.”  
**mangetout** ~ “Mutant ego.”  
**fishbicycle** ~ “Flies by chic.”  
**parental advisory** ~ “Sprained lavatory.”  
**Big Bad Voodoo Lou** ~ “Good! Via loud boob.”  
**Art Vandelay, Architect** ~ “Avidly neat rat catchter.”  
**Bippy the Beardless** ~ “The plebby despairs.”  
**AmericanMaid** ~ “I’m dear maniac.”  
**elucidator** ~ “coital rude”  
**Diogenes the Cynic** ~ “This indecency ego.”  
**darksideofthefloyd** ~ “Deftly freakish dodo.”

By the way, I see that William Gates ~ “I’m a git as well.” 😃
