Someone sent this to me. I thought the word and Bard buffs would like
it.
Cheers,

An Anagram is a word or phrase made by transposing or
rearranging the letters of another word or phrase. Here are
some examples:
Dormitory == Dirty Room
The Morse Code == Here Come Dots
Slot Machines == Cash Lost In 'Em
Animosity == Is No Amity
Snooze Alarms == No More Z's, alas.
The Public Art
Galleries == Large Picture Halls, I Bet
A Decimal Point == I'm a Dot in Place
The Earthquakes == That Queer Shake
Eleven plus two == Twelve plus one
Contradiction == Accord not in it
This one's amazing: [From Hamlet by Shakespeare]
To be or not to be: that is the question, whether
tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of
outrageous fortune. ==
In one of the Bard's best-thought-of tragedies, our
insistent hero, Hamlet, queries on two fronts about how life
turns rotten.
And the grand finale:
"That's one small step for a man,
one giant leap for mankind."
-- Neil A. Armstrong
==
A thin man ran, makes a large stride,
left planet, pins flag on moon -- on to Mars!
