End of Year Wrap Up

Lousy year of blogging as I only managed 157 posts.  Need to improve that in 2012 although next year I hope to really send something in to be published and thus if I am writing there, I won't be bloggin here! Will do comic reviews more consistently and will try to haiku but without a weekly contest that will be tough to remember. Overall beyond the baseball, haikus, and occasional book review it was a pretty pathetic year. So this is 2011 in a nutshell:


- 31 books read (favorite, Non-Fiction (5 books) - "Eiffel's Tower" / Fiction (21) - "Point Omega" and "A Visit From The Goon Squad" / TPB (5) - "Sandman: A Game of One")


- Best Comics this Year - Spider-Man (2nd year in a row)
- Best Movie seen was "Super 8" and "Sherlock Holmes 2"
- Favorite Album - Coldplay although Katy Perry's was the funnest ;)
- Best Comic Cover was Amazing Spider-Man #671


- 51 Haiku's Written
- My Favorites Haiku's


Ski
Majestic Mountain
Skis Sing Softly in the Snow
Wind Whistles Wildly

Baseball
Bust out those Jerseys
Dust off that mitt, grab a ball
Just say it's so Joe!

 The Amazing Spider-Man #660
Yeah clobberin' time!
Not really a spidey thing
But Carlie's tattoo ;)

 Windmill
There's something soothing
Watching the sweep of her arms
Invisible force


The Amazing Spider-Man #668
Juxtaposition
Who is amazing this time?
How about Carlie



Fall Colors
Season's ebb and flow
Tree's clocks sway with a rhythm
Time's up on Summer

My space shuttle tribute haiku
