Acronyms -

example: From Mary Poppins....Walt Disney created a new division in his company and named it MAPO....
or he named another division WED...which stood for Walt Elias Disney. Later both divisions were combined and renamed Imaginering by Michael Eisner.

Disney was a HUGE fan of acronyms. I have tons of them...I've been with the company for over 15 yrs. LOL.

I'll leave you with one more- ER....if you work in the theme parks and if its slow you can ER....early release.

Cheers!

Do you mean an anagram?

Like on the Da Vinci Code? When he turns "Old Draconian Devil" into "Leonardo Da Vinici"?
