Mayor McCheese Presents: Haiku Friday!
It's Friday, and that means the beauty of haiku is upon us once again! Here are some themes from which you may choose (or not):
1) Wendy Does Waco
2) Spencer's lunch
3) Presumptive reasonableness of sentences within the guideline range
4) What's wrong with the Baltimore Orioles
5) REO Speedwagon
6) Toxic wastes and other pollutants
7) The scene at the pool
8) Donkey Kong
9) Porn Cat
Here is my own haiku, to start things off:
Scalia's mad again!
"Not to revisit Booker..."
Here we go again!
Now, it is your turn to create the delicate Japanese art of the haiku. The first line should be 5 syllables, the second line 7 syllables, and the final line needs to be 5 syllables.

Really, it will be cool
We'll take our name from a car
The Cadillacs? nahh
Thunderbirds? Taken
We need something really sexy
Oldsmobile!... That ROCKS!!

Wendy need not fear.
To meet single Waco men,
visit Lover's Leap!
Seriously, a lot of dudes congregate there around lunch time. And they are very approachable, if you are shy, they approach you. Maybe bring mace, Wendy.

just dump it in the landfill
or incinerate
Smell burning Benzene,
Vinyl Chloride...mmm...yummy
My plastic soapbox
I am off it now
Hypocrite I am, spraying
Nitrocellulose

When I did PC
Moved from Austin to Waco
Lived at LL Sams
They had a pool there
It was filled with salt water
Surrounded by girls
And guys named Trip, Chip.
There was lots of skin, few clothes.
The 80s long gone.
Suddenly felt old
Thought of my daughters' future
Seven years from now
Will they be at pool
With the same high confidence
Bodies as weapons
To much to think of
Must get through ugly teen years
Parenthood - it's hard.
Leaving tomorrow.
Week in Italy for work.
Trade law not so bad.
Will not blog next week.
No haiku for the masses.
See you all soon. Ciao.

Osler's new hair rocks!
Blonde eyebrows, blue eyes re-emerge
Fan club rejoicing

Osler's old hair gone
Is new hair presum'd to be
Reasonable now?

In honor of my new employment:
Breyer's presumption.
No indy legal effect?
old words mean new things...
And as for a haiku:
My week: Rome, hot smurfs,
Rita, Swany grows old, work,
lude gingerbread men.
Love,
Matt

Discovery, done?
Light at end of the tunnel?
So close, yet so far
Not done, not really
Pre-trial done, but, oh wait!
Trial yet to come
Must still do trial
Open, direct, cross, impeach, close
Worst hoops still to jump

Y'all are pumped this week;
I'm on another planet,
School ending, Swiss-style,
Long lunches with wine
The last three days, AT SCHOOL! Wow.
Can't do that in US.
Porn Cat and Osler:
Wonder who cut their hair? Next
Time, try John Edwards'.

Osler is, one recycled

Let go my lego
Mute yellow man screams inside
hanging head in shame

Take it on the run
baby, I'll have a 'rita
Vertney is the man!
Rigdewood is haven
Pool cools, tires, nachos feed kids
Visit friends, gossip
New cups, not so much...
Styrofoam keeps things nice, cool
Put your floaties on!
Tennis camp over
VBS too, now we have
Violin lessons
She's over-scheduled,
Six year old wants to sleep in
Please, No camps this week!
