Posted for no particular reason except that Rocky and the Indians were to a large degree the center of my life through much of grade school.  And Jim Brown was the other locus of boyhood worship.

C*RNH*LE?!!

Sorry, I guess it's partly because of my age and mostly because of my sophomoric sense of humor, but I still can't help laughing when I see signs for CORNHOLE TOURNAMENT or FREE CORNHOLE.  And a cornhole board sounds like something analogous to a whipping post.

This is a picture of a poem on a blackboard.  Couldn't get it to post as a pic, so I had to go with a link.  The poem is so good, it's got me thinking I should give up poetry..

THE UNCASTRATED MS. BARTOLI

With the knowledge that she didn't have to be neutered to produce such beauty, we may allow ourselves to experience it with unalloyed joy. Kinda like free-range veal.

MY LIFE IN A TANKA

I'm on call all week.
Off Monday morning at eight.
It's beer for breakfast.

There's nothing like a haiku
for concise profundity.

THIS LAND IS OUR LAND

I see Google has a "This Land is Your Land " theme for the 4th this year.  It's often not recognized for the very political song that it is because several verses are regularly left out. For example:

As I went walking I saw a sign there 
And on the sign it said "No Trespassing." 
But on the other side it didn't say nothing, 
That side was made for you and me.

Dogs strain at the leash.
A rabbit, still by the walk,
one forefoot trembling.
