Just kidding, of course - both are great. :)
Got this email yesterday:
The haiku you submitted for our National Library week’s contest:
bursting with knowledge
wisdom accumulated
lives within our stacks
Was chosen by our committee as a winner. Congratulations!
We have submitted the 3 top finalists’ poems to the Clarion for publication in an upcoming edition. We will also be posting your haiku, along with others submitted, in the Library. To receive your prize: a Bethel Caribou gift card, please stop at the Circulation desk in the Library between 10 am- 6 pm and ask for Betty.
Thanks for entering our contest and again, congratulations!!
Another poetry contest, another gift card...
if only one of these times it could be a gift card to the Dakota Jazz Club! That I'd have no trouble spending. :)
What a great night out it was, too. This is such a fine club atmosphere, so intimate and lively, you can see in the performers' demeanor that it is a treat for them to work in a different type of venue, one that is more like jazz clubs used to be.
And Steve Tyrell did not disappoint. He's been in the business forever, in record production and in film, and so had wonderful stories to tell about the artists he's worked with, on both sides of the glass in the studio. From The Shirelles all the way to CBS's Good Morning America, from Burt Bacharach to Aaron Neville, New York to New Orleans. What a career.
The only slightly creepy part was that he looked kind of like Pat Robertson, trying to croon to his "700 Club" audience. Ewww. But I got over it when he signed my CD. :)
