Mental Aerobics Again

by Randy Gage

I’m leaving Barcelona where I had a wonderful event over the weekend and got to be here for the World Cup final with Spain last night.  I’m staying right by Las Ramblas, so I am savoring the moment. Fireworks, cruise ship horns blasting, the TV announcer is crying and so am I.  Complete bedlam.

I’m heading to Australia early in the morning and will be traveling for the next 28 hours!  Unless I get online during a layover, it will be a while until I talk with you again.  So I thought it was time to give you another mental aerobics exercise to work your brain cells.  Here’s your challenge:

Let’s try some palindromes.  These are phrases that read the same in both directions.  Ex:  Madam, I’m Adam.

They are a great way to develop your lateral thinking skills.  I’ll make it easier for you by giving you a clue, the word division, and the number of letters.

1)    Clue:  Consumed a Greek favorite:

_ _ _   _ _ _ _

2)    Clue: Where Napoleon had dinner.

_ _ _ _   _ _ _ _ _

Hit me with your best shot.  First person to post the correct answers gets worldwide fame and adoration.  I’ll check in on the other side.
