Dunno if anyone here has ever seen the London Underground anagram map (http://www.hometown.aol.com/stationanagrams/).. it's a photoshopped map of the tube network in London, with the station names replaced with anagrams (words made from mixing up the letters of other words (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anagram). So "East Wimbledon" becomes "Snowmobile Thud", for example, or "London Bridge" becomes "Blood Rending" - or my personal favorite, "Barons Court" becomes "Burst Racoon". Well, I got bored last night and did the same thing for Calgary's C-Train lines, though I didn't do the photoshopping of the track map. So here's the names I came up with, including some extras where I couldn't pick just one. If you don't like it/think this is lame/a waste of time/etc., good for you; I don't care. I just thought it was funny and figured I'd share it.
