Haiku Friday: Welcome, IPLawSmurf!


It's wonderful to welcome a new character to the blog, one who showed up out of the blue (so to speak) yesterday. Welcome to IPLawSmurf!

I can only assume that this guy is working as a low-paid associate to IPLawGuy at his large law firm. This much we can assume: He is blue, he cares deeply about intellectual property, and he has found his way over to the Razor.

So, let's welcome IPLawSmurf in Haiku! Feel free to offer advice about the Razor, modern America, or just about anything else. I would suggest using the first line of "Hey, IPLawSmurf!" Here is mine:

Hey, IPLawSmurf!
It's good times at the Razor,
Now there's two Christines...

Go ahead and make your own-- just make sure it is more or less 5 syllables for the first line, 7 for the second, and 5 for the third. As usual, the prize will be your bio here on Monday....

    Hey there RRL
    I sort of like Garagamel
    In a twisted way.

    Blue though you may be,
    Not so here at the Razor!
    New Christine feels free...

    Characters abound.
    "Box" humor may make you smile.
    Enjoy, stay awhile...

    Share thoughts and passions
    and expect a "jab" or two.
    While all embrace you...

    Ooops -- my computer glitched!
    Let me re-format that last haiku:

    Hey IPLawSmurf:
    Careful! You are treading on
    Some dangerous turf!

    Are smurfs actually
    Demon spawn of Blue Meanies;
    Yellow submarine?

    Anyhow, sorry I missed yesterday's debate. Here's what I think motivates many of thethe OWS people and their sympathizers-- the obscene amount of money bankers/investment types/ money managers, etc. make and the fact that so few seem to have been penalized or harmed by the recession.

    The wealth gap is this country is growing and its scary.... but what to do? We can't legislate lower compensation and even if we figured out a way to raise taxes (which is NOT happening) on "the rich" (however you define "the rich"), this still does not solve the problem.

    What the heck does anyone, really ANYONE deserve to make 50M a year in compsation? Or even 5M a year? The money these people pay themselves is obscene.

    And the crazy thing is, a lot of Tea Party people would agree with that.

    OK, resume Haiku-ing.

    Lovely Bones,

    If Gargamel "...found his way to the Razor," could he be turned to ensure IPLawSmurf's well being?

    Mark,
    Just a thought. If Gargamel will not come to the Razor willingly, we could build a "Box" trap.

    As you won't give up your box, are your rental rates reasonable?

    New Christine,
    hmmmm, good question. we might have to have IPLawSmurf write up a decree that we would make Gargamel sign, guaranteeing general Smurf safety.

    And I think a box trap is an excellent contingency plan.
