Haiku Friday, and the end of a long, strange week


The week before finals is always bittersweet; having things done, but the sadness that comes with any ending. And the news this week was so sad and strange, from Virginia to Oregon, and in Iraq.

I did hear four great finals in Oral Advocacy today, and I have been reflecting on them for hours now. I'm amazed at some of the things our students can do.

But, there also must be Haiku. So here is mine:

The sound of loud bangs
Is too much a part of us
I long for quiet.

Now it is your turn...

Comments:
Parties should settle
Arrogance, greed prevent it
So I litigate
 
Lester Bangs was odd
Hung out at CBGB
And wrote out the truth.
 
Now Bob The Builder
Will fix up Tyd's family home;
Spencer/Donut glad!
 
Poor Mr. Meatloaf
Swigging straight olive oil now?
Swanburg, send help now!
 
Finals loom heavy
I am walled in with books
And cut my own hair.
 
the day my watch stopped,
my heart beat in Madison
twelve / o'two / o'six
 
Madison, it rocks!
My favoritest isthmus
And now it is yours.
 
What about Imus?
I guess it wasn't so big
Words, not bullets.
 
"Publish Your Comment"
I click, but it ignores me
Stupid Computer
 
Gas is this week's theme
Farting statue, gas leak bomb,
That one guy in class.
 
Would not want to know
What things are coming to us.
One day at a time.
 
C,

I'll drink a Leinenkugels to you.
 
One day at a time,
Fits well with haiku and life
Thank you, Dr. Bob.
 
Best friend was coming
Kid got strep throat this morning
There went our fun plans

One week till freedom
Then spit into face of death
Laugh! Sing! Drink! Dance! Love!
 
Inspired by today's Razor image


Before Bill was Will
We biked from Detroit to Sag
Loved making that trip


For those who don't know it, Prof. Osler has pretty cool siblings and parents, as well as a second home in Canada.
 
Taking some finals
Going to fail ev'rything
Nothing new b'out that
 
Oso-- sad bruin!
Should have taken ADR
Keep that in mind, bear!
 
Got invitation
To Texas for ass kicking
Need to get some boots
 
Stolen from the French,
“Today, we are all Hokies”
A fitting tribute
 
How about this, prof:
Just let me write the answers
AND the questions!

One wonders what would
possess someone to jump out
of a moving car??

I'll bet there was a cougar in the car. I saw that once in a movie.
 
Explosive gasses!
I try my best not to produce
Such noxious backfire.
 
honesty is one
engagement is another
humility too
 
I try to study
But someone playing music
In the library!

When I find out who
Is making all this bad noise
They will make no more

Finals make bad days
For us in PC more so
Than ever before

Awards for PC?
They invite us to attend
You won’t see me there

But when Baylor Law
Gets an award for something
Like most jobs upon

Graduation then
I’ll be there for that award
Meanwhile we linger

Ranked the lowest for
Graduates with employment
When they walk the stage
 
IPLawguy hey
You think a lot, and read stuff
So come back to school!
 
The end of PC?
All praying to pass, that's all
Want A, will take C
 
An academic life
Sounds pretty good does it not?
Did not know when young
 
Hey I know that guy....
We can rebuild house. Stronger.
Just Like Steve Austin.

Everyone's Okay!
Dog slept thru it all - Ka BOOM!
snore snore snore snore snore

Spencer is just now
getting what happened. He said:
"Mommy, I Sad." Hmmmm

I know he will be
fine. I am very worried
@ Chapin Guitars.

New house will be SO
AWESOME. Fresh start, with Habib!!!
Can't wait to start it!!!

One thing is scary:
Garage Freezer with soup, etc?
NO one has seen it......

All my soup, frozen stuff
and new freezer in garage....
VAPORIZED...MISSING.


Seriously, NO
ONE HAS SEEN IT. Escaped!!!GONE!!!
Like Chilly the Penguin.
 
Ode to Bill/Will: "You
are older now, but still running
Against the Wind."
 
I'm back from Long Beach,
Southern Cal is a strange place,
It rained and was cold.
