Antic Anagranimals: the Axolotl

Lox to Al. Smoked 

salmon on a 

bagel, mail'd to 

Aloysius.

     Ax tool L…? Get 

rid of gadget 

twelve! Fresh gear for 

all militias!


Lot-A-Lox. Brand

(Me...? I love it.)

     All too X…? We

is, but there’s a

To all, XO. 

close with love and 

kisses. P. S.:

Lola…? Tox! Don’t 

date Dolores –

LX…? O,’ a

Ain’t no way!

     So 

goes a list of 

anagrams from 

L, T, O, L, 

O, X, A.
