Welcome back to Haiku Monday. It’s how The Fish Hack opens the week at The Fish Wrap — take an ancient poetic medium and finds ways to make it stink. The Fish Hack’s columns in The Fish Wrap and this heretofore beautiful form of Japanese poetry have a bit in common, of course. Mainly, both [...]
The Fish Hack has an experience to share, and it might not be one for impressionable eyes. But needs to be shared as an example of why all rigs are 4-wheel-drive, but not all 4-wheel-drives are rigs. I’m rolling out of The Fish Wrap in my 17-year-old 4Runner that is 200-large on miles. Along comes [...]
Haiku Monday’s back, and the Fish Hack is ready for that weekly infusion of class into the electronic version of the Fish Wrap. Where else can 17 syllables say so much yet mean so little?

Friday, April 20, 2007 Here is a strange little missive out of Northwest Oregon that seems to prove the bumper-sticker logic which says that all who wander are not lost.

Two new Haikus in praise of two events sacred to The Fish Hack: Opening Day of trout season at Howard Prairie Lake and the return of North America’s least appreciated migratory birds. I know, what does rythmic Japanese poetry and the Dead Indian Plateau have in common? Well, they both have The Fish Hack’s attention [...]
It’s time again for Fish Heads to join The Fish Hack in putting a little poetry in this here Fish Wrap: It’s Haiku Monday, Week II. Last week had some pretty good come-back from you Fish Heads. LeAnn and her fish-chowing bear won top prize — a set of used Post-It notes off The Fish [...]
We might not have libraries here anymore, but you Salmon Trolls are prepped for one storied salmon-fishing season in the oceans off the Southern Oregon and northern California coasts. Federal Fish Heads at the Pacific Fishery Management Council today adopted the most liberal season possible for recreational chinook and coho fishing in the ocean here [...]
The Fish Hack is always looking to add a little class to The Fish Wrap, and often the best way to do that is to stay away. But not today. The Hack is really feeling it. Still alive with Ohio State in the NCAA gamble-fest, looking to add a couple Benjamins to the wallet. So [...]
