revisions and ku-ku haikus

Hey all,

Kris, I got your revision. I read it during my break, here at the aiport. Unfortunately, I cannot comment on it, since this puter only has Word Viewer 97, but it is on its way. (I think its friggin great).

Well, I was working this morning (5am), and found a book of haikus. The author, David Bader, wrote 100 or so haikus that sum up classic literature peices. I copied down my faves:

Chaucer
The Canterbury Tales

Pilgrimmes on sprying braecke--
roadde trippe! Whoe farrtted? Yiuw didde.
Noe, naught meae. Yaes, yiuw.

Dante
The Inferno

Abandon all hope!
Looks like everyon's down here.
Omigod--the Pope!

Melville
Moby Dick

Vengeance! Black blood! Aye!
Doubloons to him that harpoons
the Greenpeace dinghy.

Dumas
The Count of Monte Cristo

Gallant avenger.
Egg-dipped cheese sandwich. Thy name
is Monte Cristo.

Dostoyevsky
Crime and Punishment

I, Rodya, killed her
to prove my theory. Uh-oh.
Back to square oneski.

Joyce
Ulysses

Like the cicada,
Molly takes many years to
say, "Yes" to Leo.

Joyce
Finnegan's Wake

Riverrun on and
by Jaisus s'dense! Bien alors,
scribblehobble.

And there you have the faves of the bunch. There were a few others, but they had some eccentricities that I could not quickly copy. Hope you enjoyed the mix of ku-ku haikus.

Later all,

The Chris Man goneth
