Has anyone ever run across such word/picture puzzles? The puzzle is some combination of letters in which represent a well know phrase, metaphor, name or whatever.

For example

CCCCCCC

is the Seven Seas, and

MILONELION

is One-in-a-million. (MIL-ONE-LION)
------------------
Here are a couple more:

----


HOROBOD

R|E|A|D|I|N|G


----

O

I have more, but lets first see if these interest anyone.

To the clever forum users...when I put spaces at the beggining of a line, the end up missing when the post appears.

I type (assuming the stars are spaces):
******Word

and I get
Word

Anyone know how to overcome that?
