Do you know what a palindrome is?  |
| |
|  I found it fun, as a young person to ponder palindromes. A friend pointed out just now that my count at that moment was a palindrome, but it will not stay that way. A palindrome is something that reads the same both backward and forward. It can be a number or a word, or a phrase. Two that come to mind are "Madam, I'm Adam" (punchline for the old riddle, what did the first man say to the first woman?) and "Desserts is just stressed spelled backwards." Honestly, that is how I finally could keep the spelling of desert and dessert sorted out. So, did you know what a palindrome is? Do you know any palindromes?

| |  I probably knew what a palindrome was at some point in time in my life. Menopausal memory causes me to forget a lot lately. I noticed your post and decided that I needed to refresh my memory. Wish my body came with a "F5" button.

| | Thanks for the smile. I have been blaming it on winter brain freeze. | | | |

| | Sure, you may use it. I wonder if when Spring arrives I can pass of my glitches by saying my brain thawed and ran out? There is always a reason, in every season. | | | |

| |  On his album "Poodle Hat", Weird Al Yankovich has a song called "Bob" which was ENTIRELY palindromes. You should check it out - it is definately a hoot.
"Go hang a salami, I'm a lasagna hog." A classic, that one, LOL.

| | It was one of the lines from the song... not sure if Al came up with it or if it was around before... the guy is pretty creative, though, so I would not put it past him. | | | |

| |  I've always thought palindromes were kinda neat. But, I never thought of them in numbers...

| | I do not usually think of them that way, but I had to start this discussion when my friend pointed out I was at a palindrome number. It will be along time until I reach another. | | | |

| |  Would it be the same word or a different word? You said desserts and stressed, but those are two different words. Now for instance, noon and eye, are examples of words that are the same backwards and forward. Whereas, words like, evil and live or god and dog are two different words.

| | It can be either. On the other hand, maybe desserts and stressed are not. Thanks for pointing that out. They are just a punch line to a good joke. I liked it a lot, so it got stuck in my mind. | | | |

| | Ah, but "God's dog" is a palindrome. Punctuation doesn't count...just the letters (or numbers).
Fun! | | | |

| |  I love stuff like that lol. I remember 'Madam I'm Adam' from English class, our one teacher was fond about bringing up neat stuff like that. I never knew about the desserts one...sure explains a lot (for me, I get stressed when I don't have any hahaha) Only ones I can think of right now are 'Too hot to hoot' & "dammit, I'm mad!"

| | Joyful, those are funny, they make me "joyful" so thanks for responding. I will remember in July that I will be too hot to hoot. Sounds like something my late Aunt Ginny would have said. | | | |
