I have made no resolutions for the new year of 2007. As Danae noted yesterday in Non Sequitur: "Don't mess with perfection". Having said that, I hope when I awake tomorrow that the world is a better place. Have I made a contribution to that end? Have you? We're working on it, right?
Here's my haiku for January 1, 2007:
I walk and look up
counting a thousand blackbirds
I fall to the ground
A clear, classical image with precise expression...plus humour. Who says haikus can't be funny? Don't expect this every time though.

Old man has a blog
What a strange and fun New Year
My head still hurts though
Glad I could be of inspiration! It looks good and can be a lot of fun. I'm hoping to see some bird-stuff up here sometime. (And when I say bird-stuff, I mean birding information, not guano)
Who says you can't teach new tricks to old dogs?
Barry the Luddite becomes Barry the Blogger!
A great blog, Barry - those two little cuties have turned you into a renaissance man.
This is almost a piece of art - if Hemingway was into graphics his blog would look and read like this.
I just finished reading your blog from the most recent one to this one. I enjoyed it thouroughly. Congratulations! Barry! You're a very good story teller .. has a passion for nature .. excellent sense of humour ... above all, you radiates love and you're surrounded by it. My compliment! :) Glad to have crossed path with you both.
