Speak Up Sonny!

October 11, 2007

Watching Canada AM, I just half-listened to a commercial and perked up at the words

“urine test dot c a,”

only to see what the actual url was:

hearing test dot c a.

There’s a haiku here somewhere, but I suck at haikus.? Haikus?? That doesn’t look right.? Can you pluralize haiku?? Is pluralize even a word? I need a teacher.? This one just got fired from iVillage and is on her own now ~ perhaps I can hire her to help me think.

She’ll just have to talk loud.

    Pluralize is a word, but you don’t pluralize haiku. The singular and plural forms of the word are the same, like “fish.” Or “beer.”

    Urine Test dot com

    sounds tinkling in the pot

    must get hearing aid

    It doesn’t count because you were only half listening lol. If you were totally paying attention, then maybe you should get a hearing test…

    Actually get one anyway, just to be safe!

  3. Gravatar Elizabeth Says:

    Let’s see-Haiku is 6 or 7 syllables, then 5, then 6 or 7, right?

    Urine test dot c a 6

    Need a urine test? 5

    Canada’s urine test site 7

    How’s that? :)

    Ha ha ha ha…that reminds me of when Kelly (Mocha Momma) and Jen (and Tonic) and I were at BlogHer 06 and Jen thought it was 7-5-7 for Haikus….it’s actually 5-7-5 but I suck at them totally. Probably because I never shut up! LOL!

    You guys are SMRT - esp you Kimberly. Oy.

    Yep. my Haiku wins. I should get a prize :)

  6. Gravatar Christina Says:

    Hahahaha! Yeah, the plural of haiku is haiku. I’d say I’m SMRT, but I had to look it up. :)

    You should play along tomorrow!

    Speaking of Canada AM, Seamus had better be back next week. That’s two straight weeks of early mornings without my secret TV newscaster boyfriend to wake me up.
