Internal Revenue Service has 22 letters and numerlogically also equals 22.

Internal Revenue Service

SIN IN A NICE VENEER
RUNT LIES CAN LURE US
CAN STRAIN US
CAN CURSE US
RATS STIR VILE LIES
STEER US IN LUST, IN VAIN
VEER US
STUN US
RULE US
VICES!
LEARN, TURN, TRAIN
CUT EVIL VINE
RISE
US RULE US!
TRUE RULE IS IN US!

******

I'd really like to see what others can make out of this.

INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE

RUTS IN VICES

SUE! SUE!
RESET A TRUE TURN IN VITAL VENUE

A CLEVER SEVER IN STERNAL REVENUE
A VEIL IN VERSE IS RISEN IN SEVERE SATIRE

A RISE IN ALIENS IS SET

Eleanore & NosiS!
Eleanore, yours is Perfect!
And NosiS, your first one a Perfect pure Lexigram too!
Your second a good LBR.
You need to set off the extra "S" in ASSERT.
Also did you mean Venusian, not Venutian?
You could replace YEAR with ANNI or ANNUS!
quote:
Annum is a Latin noun meaning year. It is the accusative singular of the second declension masculine noun annus (nominative), anni (genitive) [1].
And replace ASSERT with AVER!
quote:
a·ver (-vûr)
tr.v. a·verred, a·ver·ring, a·vers
1. To affirm positively; declare.
2. Law
a. To assert formally as a fact.
b. To justify or prove.
[Middle English averren, from Old French averer, from Vulgar Latin *advrre : Latin ad-, ad- + Latin vrus, true; see wr-o- in Indo-European roots.]
The word EVERY is a bit trickier to replace however. One could essentially go archaically with simply
EVER.
quote:
ever
O.E. æfre, no cognates in any other Gmc. language; perhaps a contraction of a in feore, lit. "ever in life" (the expression a to fore is common in O.E. writings). First element is almost certainly related to O.E. a "always, ever," from P.Gmc. *aiwo, from PIE *aiw- "vital force, life, long life, eternity." Evermore is O.E. æfre ma; in ref. to trees and shrubs, evergreen is from 1644, figurative sense from 1796; Everglades is from 1827, U.S., perhaps from sense of "interminable."

LEXX,

You are such a great resource. Thank you for those suggestions! I think they're perfect and I will edit my entry now.

NosiS
I try to teach folks how to make error free Lexigrams.
Thank you so very very much for not being angry as many have been when I point out errors!
I am always willing to help folks find alternative words to use, to help them create error free Lexigrams, rather than adding letters and words not from the source, as most do, and that sadly includes most of the so called profe$$ional
"lexigrammer$" I have seen on the net.
Thank you NosiS!
You now have a "Perfect" Lexigram!
PS.Your addition of the allowed word "IN" to create this phrase, to replace the not allowed phrase,
"EVERY YEAR"
was very good!:
*EVER *IN *ANNI

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL!

I forgot about this one! Thanks for bumping it, Randall and BiBi. And I forgot to thank NosiS and LEXX for their always fabulous contributions.

I do find it interesting that the words NO and NOT aren't in this phrase.
