Mrs. LAF pretends to read the Monica Pearson insert in Wednesday’s AJC.
A worthy rival
departs with enough fanfare
to gag a maggot.

This is a classic example of the inability of a person trained in journalism to be able to reliably use basic math. My original first line said “Worthy competitor.” It took me twelve hours to realize that that line had six syllables, and not five as prescribed in the 5-7-5 formula for haiku. So, this haiku business is more challenging than you’d think. Write your Monica haiku, and post it here! I won’t be a stickler for the math.

Two for your consideration:
Cox stock is dropping
No more Boortz. No more Pearson
Clark Howard, don’t leave!
Who is this Pearson?
Old school Atlanta for me.
