These are all representations of common words, phrases, places or things. Can you figure them out? Only one solve per person, please.

Still to solve: 7, 8

If you spell the words "absolutely nothing" backwards, you get "Gnihton yletulosba",
which ironically means absolutely nothing.

Really, all of the above answers are good ones! Several of these have more than one good answer. wave

If you spell the words "absolutely nothing" backwards, you get "Gnihton yletulosba",
which ironically means absolutely nothing.
