Who coined the palindrome, Go hang a salami I’m a lasagna hog ??
John Agee authored a book with the palindrome as its title, published June 1992. This is the earliest credit I could find.
looks like no one knows the date for
‘I roamed under it as a tired, nude Maori’
“Notlob”
Thanks for the neat link. I’m surprised the salami palindrome was neither cited nor traced as to authorship, since it’s out there as a book title.
I tried reading “notlob” backwards but I’m still stumped, unless it’s a variation of “rock on.”
Sorry, couldn’t resist. A not too obscure reference to something else.

Thanks for the link – it’s hilarious and does have to do, albeit a stretch, with palindromes. I think a better end to the story would go along these lines: the customer re-enters the store and demands his rights. The owner says, well, he does have a couple of parrots, females named Mabel and Molly, but unfortunately they’d been taught to say “We’re prostitutes,” and wouldn’t say anything else. The customer said his rector at church had a couple of parrots, males named Mick and Mack, who had been thoroughly trained in the ways of righteousness and could probably cure the females. Cutting to the chase, the parrots are brought into the room together, Mabel and Molly say their ususal thing, and Mick says, “Put your beads away, Mack – our prayers have been answered.”
I am in awe! I’ve never met anyone who claimed to have a “better ending” to a Monty Python sketch.
My hat’s off to Ozziemaland!
