General Chaos, Headline Haiku

Headline Haiku, early edition Tuesday June 16

John Walker Lindh pleads/
guilty to unlawful combat/
show trial averted.

Alan Greenspan speaks:/
Everything is looking up!/
(except white collar crime)

How do you know when/
Dubya will jitter market?/
Easy-his lips move.

A bomb and gunmen/
kill seven on the West Bank;/
Israeli settlers.

Nextel posts profit?/
wireless carrier in black/
while wired ones in red.

Elliot Spitzer,/
bane of Wall Street analysts/
stalks Jack Grubman now.

Grubman told Congress/
“I call them as I see them.”
Does he need glasses?

Standard
