Can we please haiku about Goofus and Gallant this week? I know-- I'm a little obsessed.
Here is mine:
Goofus-- I get him.
"I've got to go talk to some
Guys about some stuff."
[This said as he runs past his mother holding a rumpled paper bag]
Now it is your turn... 5 syllables/7 syllables/5 syllables. Your prize? Your bio in this space on Monday!!!!!

Some questions:
1. Why is Gallant on the elevator by himself?
2. What kind of parent names their child "Goofus?" I can imagine the conversation...
Mom: Dave, Goofus was running on the escalator today, and he smells like marijuana.
Dad (rubbing head): I wanted to name him Steve, but oh no, you had to go and honor your Uncle Goofus...

I vote for LouisvilleJill. I wish I'd have done that one.
I also wonder if Louisville is headed to the Big 12, as I have heard.

I invited him to dinner
He never said please or thank you.
Wild boy--come again.
His trousers spotless
Pat Boone paragon blonde hair.
No desire to touch.

He smiles in the mirror--
His fraternity gold self...
They'd never suspect him.
The guts roar.
He feels her fingers clutch. Gears
Grind,"hog" leaps skyward.
Goofus...why don'tcha come up and see me sometime?
