While helping my Mom out with an anagram puzzle, I resorted to cheating – yes! – by searching the internet. There I found a website with a software program that allows you to anagramize (new word) any word or phrase you can provide.
So, in honor of my own birthday (today), here are anagrams of my full name:
– I am a jerk of crudeness. [I will concede.]
– Jesus! I’m a ranked force! [Ranked near the bottom of the list, anyway.]
– I am confused as jerker. [No, not that confused.]
– Nursemaids face Joker. [Romeo & Juliet meets Batman.]
– A jerk adores fine scum. [The finer the better.]
– Fried Roman Jesus cake. [Something eaten during the Easter observance in ancient times.]
– Juice darkness or fame. [I’ll take juice darkness for $400, Alex.]
– Jerk a mendacious serf. [I had to look “mendacious” up. It means “lying” or “intentionally untrue,” which is a perfect fit for this phrase.]
– Jesus! Fine, mad croaker! […said the judge at the Westminster Frog Show.]
– Rejoiced funk amasser. [I don’t know what it means, either, but the idea of someone happily amassing funk appealed to me.]
You can apparently get quite a lot of mileage in this exercise using the words Jesus and jerk.

Happy belated. Have you read An Abundance of Katherines by John Green? Lots of anagrams (and a great book).
