That's a silly post

But no worse than many here

On Mapleleafweb

EDITED: to fix

A typo in second line

Must learn to proofread

There are a hundred million Americans that listen diligently to a late night radio talk show called "Coast To Coast" - This highly efficient propoganda machine takes the mind of the average person and convinces them there are ghosts lurking everywhere and UFOs are real and there are aliens out there and amongst us......I wonder if the crazy old Zionists put this plot together to make America MORE stupid? Talk about de-education of a nation! There are no aliens or UFOs - we are alone and must make a go of it ourselves - there is no salvation coming from the sky!

It's an animated comedy, not a documentary, Oleg. I think people may be tipped off to the fact that it's not real by the fact that they're all cartoon characters.

You two have ruined

What could have been lots of fun

Whole thread in haiku

Oleg Bach:

There is no real proof

That there is no other life

In the universe

KIMMY:

Cartoon characters

Can sometimes seem much more real

Than folks on this board

There was a poster named Rocket

Who also was known as Pocket

He wrote his reviews

In lousy haiku

So the rest of us told him to f*ck it.

That is not haiku

You have used a limerick

To besmirch my post

(But nicely done )

At our daughter's school

There is a great dog called Coo

The kids say, Hi Coo

[PocketRocket]

Saying hi to dog

Can only be made better

By scratching dog's head.

Coo is a wolfhound

When you scratch her giant head

She makes a coo sound

[PocketRocket]

Wolfhounds are great beasts

I met one once years ago

Scared da shit out' me

Haiku? Limerick? What's the difference? Both hip-hop and waltzes use 3/4 time.

I must admit however, PocketRocket, that IMHO your haiku is better than my limerick.

Well thank you my friend

High praise from a fine wordsmith

Whose posts provoke thought

Away from the Haiku for a minute.....

A few years back, if you recall, you and I bumped heads a few times, but there was always a mutual respect.

I've always found that in dealing with you, when respect is given, it is returned.

You and a few others who I am pleased to see are still here, have always a pleasure to debate with.

Regarding Haikus and Limericks; forgive me if I am telling you something of which you are already aware, but just in case you're not, the most common formula for a Haiku is simply this.....Three lines. First line is 5 syllables, second line is seven, third line is five.

It's kind of fun trying to fit a message into that format, and I like the idea of a thread full of haiku.

It's just something a bit different from the normal MLWeb fare.

EDITED again

Because I did not proofread

Yet another time
