Jockeying for discounted merchandise may intensify this year as rising unemployment makes consumers more desperate for bargains and retailers make more aggressive markdowns to spur sales.

In my halo of a mired rum tin.
I erase many men. Oh, to be man, a sin.
Is evil in a clam? In a trap?
No. It is open. On it I was stuck.
Rats peed on hope. Elsewhere dips a web.
Be still if I fill its ebb.
Ew, a spider… eh?
We sleep. Oh no!

Good!

To all of you bagging on him, get a piece of paper and let us see what you can come up with. Really, even if you fail you can come to appreciate how difficult it is.

If a computer made a palindrome it would look something like this:
00110110001100000111111000011111100000110001101100

You know what, I somehow prefer Damien Martin's

Never said that I could get a computer to do it. I don't quite have the programming skills for that.

I doubt "computationally crazy" would be any different from this dreck. It would be just as senseless.

Weird Al Yankovic has a nice all-palindrome song "Bob", a style parody of Bob Dylan.

BOB

I, man, am regal a German am I
Never odd or even
If I had a hi-fi
Madam, I'm Adam
Too hot to hoot
No lemons, no melon
Too bad I hid a boot
Lisa Bonet ate no basil
Warsaw was raw
Was it a car or a cat I saw?

Rise to vote, sir
Do geese see God?
"Do nine men interpret?" "Nine men," I nod
Rats live on no evil star
Won't lovers revolt now?
Race fast, safe car
Pa's a sap
Ma is as selfless as I am
May a moody baby doom a yam?

Ah Satan sees Natasha
No devil lived on
Lonely Tylenol
Not a banana baton
No "x" in "Nixon"
O, stone, be not so
O Geronimo, no minor ego
"Naomi", I moan
"A Toyota's a Toyota"
A dog, a panic in a pagoda

Oh, no! Don Ho!
Nurse, I spy gypsies -- run!
Senile felines
Now I see bees I won
UFO tofu
We panic in a pew
Oozy rat in a sanitary zoo
God! A red nugget! A fat egg under a dog!
Go hang a salami, I'm a lasagna hog

I remember this from one of John Ciardi's columns long ago -- said to be the response of a suburban nudist to a neighbor complaining that his wife was getting annoyed: "Named undenominationally rebel, I rile Beryl? La, no! I tan! I'm, O Ned, nude, man!" Maybe not the most brilliant ever, but any palindrome that uses a word as long as "undenominationally" deserves credit just for that.

uhhh...very impressive, except for the not being a palindrome part. Sure, it's spelled the same, but it makes no sense. Computers can make palindromes if you waive the whole "sense" rule. Write a little aimless blank verse and you can say anything. Second rate, though I found a few enjoyable moments.

A "Palin" drome Story
A palindrome is a word or phrase which reads the same in both directions.

Sarah Palin is known to reverse positions and this leads to a "palin"drome story.

I wrote this story back in Sept.08

-------------------------

Kayak salad: Alaska yak.
Must sell at tallest sum

Did I do, O God, did I as I said I'd do? Good, I did.

Dammit, I'm mad.
Name tarts? No, medieval slave, I demonstrate Man!

Raw was I ere I saw war.
Too far away, a war afoot.
No, I save on final perusal, a sure plan if no evasion.
No panic... I nap on

Oh who was it I saw, oh who?
so McCain: A maniac cmos
Yo! Banana boy!
Yo! Breed deer, boy!

Rot can rob a born actor.

Revered now I live on. O did I do no evil, I wonder ever?

Deny a god, O gay Ned
No, it never propagates if I set a gap or prevention.

No lemon, no melon.
No cab, no tuna nut on bacon.
No desserts, I stressed on

Is it I? It is I
I saw I was I
Too hot to hoot

ummmmmmmmmm. Am I missing something or is the 3rd to last paragraph not a palindrome?:
"“Sir, I deliver. I’m a dog”
Evil is a deed as I live.
Dammit I’m mad."
The very last one is, and the 2nd to last is, but the phrase "Sir, I deliver. I'm a dog" is not a palindrome....

Am I missing something?

My favorite palindrome: Picture a mad alchemist saying, "See, Slave! I demonstrate yet Arts no medieval sees!!"

I wrote a longer one, and once I was done I promptly lost it. It wasn't as lucid.
