(was: Re: SUB: ha ha haachoo i mean haiku) On Fri, 19 Sep 1997 13:19:00 EDT, Judy Ray danced across the networks with this observation: :) I changed the subject line to SUB, just in case you :) *are* serious about this one.;) SPAM????? You gotta be kidding! :) I can buy a poem about your dentist, about sunlight on the floor, :) even about a chainsaw, but SPAM? Teehee! So, shall we count the ways of SPAM? The delights of processed meats, the glimmer in our eyes from that familiar blue tin, the taste of nitrates and nitrites and other favorite bites... Ode, haiku, sonnet, or whatever pearl you prefer (a T.V. Sitcom devoted to SPAM? Featuring the Vikings? No, that's just absurd:) Just think of the lessons of life that are wrapped up in that little tin, setting on your grocery shelf waiting to be bought... Write! tink
