Haiku Headlines: The News in 5-7-5
News that fits three lines
in a syllable structure
of five seven five

Obsessed with Haiku?
This blog is the place to come
We're all obsessed too.
December 14, 2010

The rich get richer
The rest of us muddle on
So that's compromise

Temporary cut
Never worked in the first place
Time to give it up

At some point in time
We ALL have to sacrifice
3G not 4G?

At some point in time
We ALL have to sacrifice
HD not 3D?

A big f'ing deal
Improving health care for all
Tried for many years

Roosevelt Nixon
Clinton and others between
No one got it done

This one baby step
Doesn't fix everything
I want much better

Our Vice President
Uttered the dreaded f-bomb
Fox News goes crazy

Immature White House
No dignity this office
How dare he say that

Didn't shoot a guy
Or hide away til sober
He just said "f-ing"

It is a big deal
Not big enough for myself
But maybe some day

Funny how wacko's
Can't remember cause of mess
Didn't fix health care

Ran up major debt
Ran economy into ground
Still blame Obama

No chance for reason
These two sides are too polar
Logic versus fear

Winter Olympics
From Vancouver to Whistler
Unity in sports

Early tragedy
American medal blitz
Home team hockey gold

Slush on the ski hills
Snow trucked in to Cypress
Ceremony glitch

The sun shined brightly
Showed the beautiful Northwest
Neighbors to the north

I'm glad that I went
Experience to treasure
Once in a lifetime

Oregon Football
LaMichael and LeGarrette
Call a duck a duck

Class act Oregon
Sucker punch not good enough
Strangle and assault

Tough to run a sweep
With shackles on your ankles
Green and Gold disgrace

Conan O'Brien
Delayed Winter Olympics
NBC lost me

Save for The Office
Chuck until they cancel it
I'll be tuned elsewhere

Network idiots
Can't watch the Olympics live?
What were they thinking

I'll still watch the news
Local affiliate's good
Jesse Jones, King 5!

Marine winter air
Warm fronts hitting sea level
Bad move Vancouver

Lots of Whistler snow
Not many bare patches there
What were they thinking?

Vancouver events
Skating curling and hockey
All are indoor sports

Whistler event list
Ski events bobsled and luge
Because it's cold there!

I am kinda smart
Not a rocket scientist
Figured this one out

Golden voiced sport spectator
Makes the game better!

Please get Kevin back
Bad enough to lose Sonics
Don't take Kevin too

Sounders game broadcasts
Need that Magic Carpet Ride
Get up with downstroke

We must keep KC
A true Seattle legend
BIG mistake Sounders!

Stock Market turmoil
Up then down then up then down
Makes a guy go nuts

Dow Jones S and P
Nasdaq Nikkei HSI
So much to follow

Best bet is don't look
Out of sight is out of mind
Hope there is some left
