For the last few months, I have been editing my husband's newest book.  He put this on the door, a reference that at least some of you may get.

    1. Actually it's an anagram for a small village in Lombardy.

  2. I don't get it, but don't feel too bad because I doubt if Einstein could have gotten it either.

  6. I admit i am completely mystified. I don't suppose this is a reference to Lord Anson (1697-1762), "Founder of the British Navy," famed for his disastrous circumnavigation of the word, and First Lord of the Admiralty.

  7. CORRECTION: "husband" instead of "huband" (although huband is a neat word and may start a trend.)
