Inspired by BoingBoing's collection of anagram subway map goodness (e.g., London...), [info]cataplum and I made one for Chicago.





Chicago Transit Authority system map, anagrammed

Thank you. I read BB everyday, and I was wondering when someone was going to do Chicago. My brother and I were tempted to do it ourselves, except we suck at anagrams, and gave up after Bryn Mawr. (That was our first try, too.)

Good job. I especially enjoy the repeated use of the word "virgin". Extra points for that. :-)

This map is extremely cool, but my stop, Clinton, is sort of boring. Can I petition to change it to Con Intl or even Clot Inn?

this is grand ... and I discovered via the anagram server http://www.wordsmith.org/anagram/advanced.html there is no anagram for 'grand', so score one point for you against the anagram server.

Do you think you can win against Rafa. Almagro: No, I don’t want to answer this question, because we’ll see what happens.

You know, you've got a point.
Looks like it should be
A Monk With Cancer....
