No Haiku

I fear for the future of this country.

No, not for the many politically unConstitutional crimes being committed in Washington but because the first generation of wide-spread hyphenated named kids are starting to marry. Chaos is just around the corner.

Imagine is Jimmy Rosebud-Pencil falls madly in love with Jenny Furnace-Heep. They marry and become Mr. and Mrs. Rosebud-Pencil-Furnace-Heep. They have a child who falls madly in love with Jordon Thingamabob-Mason-Gruber-Lollipop. They marry and become Mr. and Mrs. Rosebud-Pencil-Furnace-Heep-Thingamabob-Mason-Gruber-Lollipop. Etc.

In only a few generations names will become so long as to be meaningless and the government will mandate that everyone have the last name of Smith. Except for those already named Smith who will renamed Smythe.

Deuce

Daylight savings time:
If one is good, why not three?
Begin the mind games!

Sunday cold and rain
Glad it was only the hose
And not calipers.

Mid-morning at work;
A hankering for cookies.
What a cruel torture.

For sheer excitement
Nothing beats Matthew Hoffman
And his Math Bowl Math

Reading it will give you an
Aerobic workout.

I’m sure it’s all me
But Facebook makes me depressed.
It’s time for goodbye.

My car needs some work
Wheel cylinder and bearings
If it does not rain.

Berries

3/7/2010
Raspberry bushes
Do not like to be thinned out.
It’s best to wear gloves.

3/8/2010
Hi-hat, snare, bass drum
Pick two and all will be good
Try three and it bombs.

Matthew had a pain
In his neck. Surprisingly
It was not his bro.

Was a very fine old man
Like old man tucker.

Big Batch

First day of the month
Work work work work work work work
First day of the month

How can you be scared
Of a dentist you have seen
Fishing with your dad?

The clarinet boy
Plays his last middle school show.
Will he march AND play?

3/4/2010
What a rough work day!
Ground up, worn down, spit back out
Good thing this is rare.

3/5/2010
Fame and fortune call
For tonight our very own
Brooke will hit the stage!

The shortest month

2/26/2010
Outlasted again;
Try again tomorrow night.
Baby drank caffeine.

2/27/2010
Last basketball game,
All there will have no doubt that
Lyndi rocks the court.

2/28/2010
Church in the morning,
Afternoon family walk,
Live for days like these.
