fyi: Anagrams

[rutthenut]

Getting closer to the real silly season now, thought I'd see what sort of anagrams can be made from the words 'Lancia Stratos'.

Seems to be rather a lot!

The list at this site shows plenty, albeit not sentences or sensible phrases:

Some of those could be quite scary - hope they don't offend...

ANAL SCAR TIT SO
ANAL CARS SIT TO
ANAL CART I TOSS

AORTAL SCANS IT
TARSAL ACTIONS
ALAS CARSON TIT
ALAS CART SIT ON
ALAS RAT SCOT IN

AORTA SCAN SILT
SARA CAN TILT SO
SOCIAL RANTS AT
COITAL SANS RAT
TALC ASS AT IRON
ASCOT SNARL AT I
TOSCA SLAIN RAT
ART AS AT COLINS
RAT ASS AT COL IN


And one I didn't see in that combination (didn't read them all, honest)

A SCROTAL STAIN


Just looking up Stratos gives a much more manageable list, including

ASS TROT
RAT TOSS


Found any anagrams you've found interesting/entertaining?

Not really, just doing some research for a business meeting, feeling like carp through not enough sleep, and needed a mental diversion!

More word-searching whilst waiting for a huge s/w download found the following at www.wordsmith.org/awad (A Word A Day)

Subject: A.Word.A.Day--stratocracy
X-Bonus: Your children need your presence more than your presents. -Jesse Jackson, clergyman and civil rights leader (1941- )

stratocracy (struh-TOK-ruh-see) noun

Government by the military.

[From Greek stratos (army) + -cracy (rule, government). Ultimately from
Indo-European root ster- (to spread), source of such words as structure,
industry, destroy, street, Russian perestroika, and stratagem.]

With so many countries under military rule, why isn't this word better
known? Go ahead, put it to use -- why use many words when a single
word is available to describe something?

"(P)NDC was a stratocracy that deployed a culture of wanton and
extra-judicial assassinations in the specious guise of revolutionary
house-cleaning."
Kwame Okoampa-Ahoofe; Question of Kettle Calling the Pot Black;
New York Beacon; Oct 9, 2003.

"They ... fell to be governed by an army. Their monarchy was changed
into a stratocracy, and not into an aristocracy or democracy."
Robert Filmer, et al; 'Patriarcha' and Other Writings; Cambridge
University Press; 1991.

This week's theme: words from Greek.
