Silly Site o' the Day

Via Mom in email, I assume everyone's heard of David Bader's 1999 book Haikus for Jews by now. You can click here to get some excerpts. Some of my favorites:

On Passover we
opened the door for Elijah.
Now our dog is gone.

Quietly murmured
at Saturday services,
"Yanks 5, Red Sox 3"

Five thousand years a
wandering people – then we
found the cabanas.

And if you can't get / enough, click here to see The / Torah in Haiku.
