I personally like my version:

A man, a plan, a canoe, pasta, hero's, rajahs, a coloratura,
maps, snipe, percale, macaroni, a gag, a banana bag, a tan,
a tag, a banana bag again (or a camel), a crepe, pins, Spam,
a rut, a Rolo, cash, a jar, sore hats, a peon, a canal
 - Panama!, _sides reversed is_ A man, a plan, a canoe, pasta,
hero's, rajahs, a coloratura, maps, snipe, percale, macaroni,
a gag, a banana bag, a tan, a tag, a banana bag again (or a
camel), a crepe, pins, Spam, a rut, a Rolo, cash, a jar, sore
hats, a peon, a canal - Panama!

Me too.
