Failed Palindromes

Quoting The Areas of My Expertise:

WHEN WRITING, PLEASE AVOID THESE FAILED PALINDROMES

Slow speed: deep owls
Drat That Tard
Two Owls Hoot Who Owls Hoot Too (Owt)
Desire still lisps: Arise! D.
A man, a plan, a kind of man-made river, planned.
Hobos! So!

This book is one of the funniest things I’ve ever come across.  It’s especially funny if you can imagine John Hodgman actually speaking it, which I fortunately am able to do, since I know his voice well from all those Get a Mac ads and from his several appearances on TWiT, and also because Kim has the audio version of the book on her iPhone.
