How about a Haiku thread

Simple Rules of a Haiku in syllables. Doesnt have to rhyme.
3 - 5 - 3
5 - 7 - 5

Porsche on
the road and fast, now
out of gas

Screaming tires
That light changed to quick
Hold fast brakes

silly threads
too many to read
eyes hurting

as banter gets droll
with images of Tabs
stomachs start to churn

I'd really be more comfortable with a limerick thread.

well that is the challenge...

A limerick...well
There once was a man with a Porsh
Who thought of a limerick of coursh
on the Pelican thread
he typed with dread
Cause nothing rhymes with Porsche

hey Mike...


there once was a man from Seattle
with Haiku he attempted to battle
he tried and he failed
as the syllables prevailed
so with limericks he now likes to prattle

There once was a random pics thread
That kept resurrecting from dead
Seems half naked chicks
In multiple pics
Kept me from the tech board instead.

Three guesses where I am tonight:

Bored at Work

Night Shift in the Jail

Order Food





And another experience while trout fishing this last weekend....

Steelhead not the prey

Hooked on six pound test trout rod

Fish Just Spooled my Reel



Micah

As an aside... I'm going back to the same place on Friday morning, this time loaded for bear (or steelhead) 9 ft G. Loomis rod with 15lb Maxima supergreen and 12lb flourocarbon leader.
