Back to Our Core Mission: Outsourced *Beagle* Haiku

This bit of outsourced beagle haiku was contributed by Mary Campbell-Droze in a burst of enthusiasm over the outcome of the Colts at Miami game on Monday Night Football:

Monday Night Haiku Starring Katie the Beagle

Katie the Beagle!
For sure, she was rooting for
Indy the Coltses

Alas, Mary is unaware that the late touchdown that Peyton Manning threw to beat the Dolphins also brought defeat to the Basking Beagles fantasy football team by the narrowest of margins, six-tenths of a point.

Thus, the haiku reply:

Katie is bitter.
Peyton's final TD beat
The Basking Beagles.

How do I know that Katie the Beagle was bitter? I'm almost positive that it took her six-tenths of a second longer than usual to fall asleep.

  1. Is that what was bothering Katie Monday night? That explains her brief restlessness.

    Congratulations to the Coltses and to Mary, their biggest fan. I must say, with those pesky Colts, you can never relax.
