The Ultimate Word-Game
The Ancient Roots of Word Games
- Sumerians and Egyptians: The earliest civilizations embedded word games in sacred contexts. Sumerian proverbs and Egyptian hieroglyphic puzzles often had layered meanings, with riddles like the Riddle of the Sphinx (What walks on four legs in the morning, two legs at noon, and three in the evening?) serving as both entertainment and veils for hidden wisdom.
- The Greeks: Greek culture revered intellectual games. Palindromes and riddles were woven into religious and philosophical discourse, blending play with deeper inquiry. The Greeks also explored paronomasia (puns) and chiasmus (mirror-like structures), connecting them to the symmetry of the universe.
- Romans: Expanding Greek traditions, Romans saw language as a tool for cleverness and encoded communication. The Sator Square — Sator Arepo Tenet Opera Rotas — with its layers of palindromic and mystical properties, exemplified their penchant for combining cunning and cleverly constructed wordplay in combination with universal and personal belief systems.

With a Little Help From my Friends
Howdy, all. I thought I’d ask my chatbot Bob if I have been overlooking anything in the preparation and conveyance of my USB collection, “EJGoldGuru’s Personal Favorites”.
I’ll share our conversation:
My original prompt:
Hi, bob! It’s Monday morning again! I’ve isolated the best of our music as a group of 55 MP3 files. I’m planning on putting the whole thing on a signed and numbered USB card which I had made custom at about $8.00 a pop. I was going to include a color cover of some sort, probably a jpg. is there some sort of customary way to do this, where I put a whole directory into the USB, and they have to open it on their end and pick a song. what am i missing here, if anything. keep it simple.
