\"\" Another Boomer Braino<\/strong><\/em> Revealed<\/em><\/strong>: The f\/k\/a<\/em> Gang had planned to start each month of 2008 by posting the month’s calendar page from both of our 2008 haiga<\/a> calendars — the artsy Giacalone Haiga Calendar 2008<\/a><\/strong><\/em> and the nostalgic fka<\/em> Haiga Memories Calendar 2008<\/a><\/strong>. But, frankly, we keep forgetting to post them. Here — better a little late than never — are the calendar pages for May. Each month has a “photo haiga” — a picture with a subtly-linked haiku.<\/p>\n

\n

Y<\/em><\/strong>ou can click on the sample calendar pages below to go to a full-size page suitable for printing. Or, see a larger version of each original haiga by clicking here<\/a> (for “fresh graves”) and there<\/a> (for “mother’s day”).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Rather than rely on the memory-challenged f\/k\/a<\/em> Gang to bring you each month’s calendar page, we suggest you click the links above to obtain printable versions of each complete haiga calendar (see our prior post<\/a> from last December for descriptions and links).<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

“Imagine if every year, one player died in the Superbowl. Or if a player died every year during the NBA finals. Would we tolerate such a result? Should it matter that the athletes who are pushed beyond the quite literal breaking point are animals?”<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
