Poem Chase for Handy Case

[Frumius]

I saw over the weekend that there was a Haiku poem contest for a Speck Case for iPod touch that Touch Arcade had going over this last weekend. The criteria were, "To win a case, post a haiku in the comments that somehow relates to the things we cover on TouchArcade. (iOS devices, gaming, the forums, things like that.) We'll pick 20 of our favorites..."

Well, I won a case with one of my haikus! Not sure which haiku it was as I entered 10 or so. Only one per person, though one could enter many haikus. I was just notified that I won one, and chose a black case (DarkLord black!)

Maybe it was this one:

Found on TouchArcade
Poem chase for handy case
Typed on iPod touch


or maybe...

Touch it, caress it
I massage it every night
It's my iPod touch

Or was it:

Decision time now
Girlfriend waits impatient
Back to iPod touch

(Never mind that I have a wife, not a gf; I was thinking of my audience over there).

(Never mind that I have a wife, not a gf; I was thinking of my audience over there).

Uh huh.

Decision time now
Girlfriend waits impatient
Back to iPod touch

I thought this was hilarious. Nicely done!

Thanks, Baak

Very nice Frum!

What? There was a contest and you didn't tell me? I make excellent Hakius. Or Hakis, whatever.

Congrats Frum! I love free stuff too!

Thanks, guys! Ok, if I ever run into another thing similar to this I'll let us all know!

Just got back from a 10-hour drive up the coast from San Louis Obispo, where we Thanksgivinged over the weekend. I hate all that driving! I was stiff, and sore, and tired, and hot, and cold, and hungry long before we got home. Now I have a healthy fire crackling in the stove, combatting a weekend chill that had overtaken the house.

Frum - next year, stop over at my place in the bay area for a few hundred games of myth and aleph one. Really helps break up the drive and eliminate road rage.
