Red? Blue? Maybe Purple.

Red and blue combine
to make purple, but there's
still pure red and blue

Found this amazing map HERE, it's a little more than halfway down the page. Interesting take on graphical statistics.

Just because the contest is over doesn't mean you have to stop writing haikus!

Tony; when are you going to come get your prizes?

Barack may have won the Presidency, but the coveted Election Haiku Big Prize goes to Tony Medina for the following ditty:

Must Be Getting Close

The back and forth between Cliffhanger and Tony was fun to see today.

Good thing these guys don't take everything personally!

Read all the posts from yesterday; most entertainment on this blog for a while.

The Winning entry for Sunday is....There isn't one! No one got anything in before 1:00 toeay.

So all the ones from Tony and Cliffhanger are in the mix for TOMORROW at 1:00. The LAST DAY before the big kahuna.

ONE MORE DAY to get your haikus in the mix for the BIG PRIZE AT THE END.

POST BELOW!!!

Saturday's Winner: Cliffhanger!

Cliffhanger penned this somewhat truism to win yesterday's Starbucks card:

Maple leaves are red
Violet blossoms are blue
Choice is black and white

The choice truly is between two polar opposites.

Just found out Obama and Cheney are distant cousins.

Palin is now campaigning without McCain's name on her posters.

Last night Cliffhanger told me it doesn't matter to him Palin's been found guilty of abuse of power and lied about it.

Two days left to get into the big contest, you literati.
