1000 Posts

Took me 1,607 days to get to 1,000 posts.  Not too shabby although looking back I did a whole lot more initially then what I do now.  Oh well keep plugging.  So what can I say over 1,000 posts?

- 123 books read (favorite, Non-Fiction - "Packing for Mars" , "Horse Soldiers" , "The Numbers Game"/ Fiction - "Cosmopolis" , "The Hunger Games" , "Dance Dance Dance" , "They Yiddish Policeman's Union" / TPB - "I Kill Giants" , "Laika" , "Messiah Complex" , "Scott Pilgrim Series")
- Best Comics Over the Timespan - Spider-Man, Captain America (twice), and Daredevil.  Estimate I have read over 616 comic books in that timespan (hey Earth 616 - the Marvel Universe...)!

- Best Movies seen were "Avatar", "Hangover" , "Juno", and "Iron Man"

- Favorite Albums were "XX", "Swoon", and Linkin Park's album

- 198 Haiku's Written.  Some of the better ones:

Daylight
Sol makes its comeback
Everlasting solar dance
Your pale skin rejoices

Butterfly
Metamorphosis
Nature's real life magic trick
Version 2.0

Rake
Nature's detritus
Sheds her coat upon the ground
Backs everywhere groan

10/10/10
Date is ten ten ten
Binary is forty-two
The answer to life

Solstice
Sun's shortest work day
Night time stars work overtime
Astronomers smile

Shadow
Your doppelganger
Where do they go in the night?
Perhaps they sleep too

Stars
Gazing upon thee
Wonder if someone watches
and Haiku's about us?

Jazz
Saxophone simmers
Base thumps, piano prances
America's song

Winter
Long shadows, low sun
Big piercing blue sky, drab earth
Clouds caress white peaks

Green Chile
It's spicy goodness
My burrito craves its warmth
Naked without it

Snow
White blankets the land
Refreshes, hides blemishes
Crunch beneath your feet

Candle
Flickering shadows
Flame Dancing to its rhythm
Mesmerizing light

Stars
The night sky beckons
They shimmer and wink at me
Old friends say hello

And what are the posts were reading again:

Second American Revolution
The Greatest Sting Ever...
Risk Adverse or Lack of Imagination
6 Word Memoir
