I, too, kept trying to do something with the middles or to find some kind of spoonerism (cute accords, anyone?). I'm kicking myself for not seeing a single anagram.

Meta destroyed me immediately after solving. Meant to come back to it Monday but ran out of time, what with school starting again. Not sure if I ever would have anagrammed them separately though. I think I was zoomed in too far trying to find some kind of clue... was going to submit MISSISSIPPI just for the hell of it. Puzzle was fun but manageable.
