Training Day



Abbreviated rules borrowed from here to encourage some new entrants ....

The Rules

The first line of a haiku poem has five syllables.
The second line has seven syllables.
The third, and final, line has five syllables.

The Movie Haiku Contest (MHC) is open to every member of the FWFR site.

To enter, all you have to do is think of a Haiku for the current movie, then post into the current thread. Simple as that. Also, haikus may be risque, but nothing explicit please.

Only one entry per person as per The Blevins Rule. However, you are allowed to edit your existing entry until 9pm Tuesday FWFR time. *


Voting.

If you have entered the MHC, then you have to vote. If you do not vote, you'll lose 3 points from your total, even if you are Sludge and its your birthday. This could mean the difference between the adoration and envy of your fellow Fwiffers or being the feckless butt of our jokes!

You do not have to enter an MHC to vote. Vote away. It'll be like a lurker vote!

---------------------------------

For each round, you get to vote for your three favourite haikus. The voting is as follows:

3 pts fwfr a
2 pts fwfr b
1 pt fwfr c
--------------------------------

You may vote only once
You cannot vote for yourself.
You can vote for the previous winner

You vote by sending me your votes in a PM (Private Message) HERE, to Me.

When the voting deadline ends (9pm Wednesday 08OCT FWFR time), the votes are tallied and the top three places are announced.

Denzel's a dope cop.
Ethan watches like a Hawke,
but what's he learning?

One green guy's vote needed.

Oops! Actually, I see that the polls have closed. Given that Sludge's vote could cause a tie for 1st place and could change the second and third placers, I'm going to leave this open for a couple of hours while I go do my CrossFit thing for the day.

HURRY UP SLUDGIE!

Time: it's relative, isn't it?

If you want to see yours truly doing one of his CrossFit routines, click here ("truly" is the dark fella in the beginning).

Yeah, it's gonna make you feel guilty.




On to the rogues' gallery.

I read the paper. It's 90 per cent bullshit, but it's entertaining. That's why I read it, because it entertains me. You won't let me read it, so you entertain me with your bullshit. Tell me a story, right now....

Well, since the Rolling Stones said that every cop is a criminal,
