How Tony Woke Mona!
Mona and Tony were sitting in their classroom, attending a lecture on English Poetry of the 15th Century. Mona had had a heavy lunch during her break, and was ready to doze off and Tony decided to play a prank on her to wake her up! He took her textbook and hid it somewhere. When Mona's eyelids fluttered briefly to give the teacher an impression of attention, she noticed something amiss on her desk... now her eyes were as big as saucers!
She immediately looked at Tony accusingly, "Where is my textbook?" she hissed desperate not to arouse any attention from her teacher.
Tony wanted to break the "Mona-Tony" (monotony!), and so instead of just telling her where, he gave her a chit which read:
Loudrorhi!racuyenko
After a lot of head-banging, head-scratching and head-aching, all done in absolute silence inside her head, Mona finally got the answer and also her textbook.
Where did Mona find the book?

Very cool! I didn't get the method--I just tackled it as scrambled words--but it was fun.
