Anagrams.
Take a word or words and mix up the letters to make new words or phrases.
Like, say, NALCOR ENERGY, the provincial government's new name for its old idea of state involvement in things best left to the entrepreneurial private sector.
Flip around the letters and you get, among others:
- General Crony
- Enlarge Crony
Add the letters corp on the end and you can end up with some other odd phrases:
- Cancer Prone Glory
- Clean Crony Groper
- Porn Recycle Groan
Those samples came from an online anagram generator. Maybe the human brain can do something more creative than create random words.
For example, this all started with an e-mail that asserted that one anagram for NALCOR ENERGY CORPORATION was CRONY CAREER PROLONGATION.
