This "news" is a month old but I thought it was funny. All my facts are from the February 5 New York Post, page 30.
Former CEO of Sun Microsystems, Jonathan Schwartz, announced his resignation via this Tweeted haiku:
Financial crisis
Stalled too many customers
CEO no more.
How funny is that? I guess when you're leaving with $12 million severance, you don't really care.
Oh, and the best part: people were taking his verse to task, like, "If it's not about a season it's not a haiku..."
This is still RT'ing its way around the Twitterverse, so I don't feel so out of date. Plus, another Sun exec just quit today, confirming it via his blog, so it's got a timely edge to it. (Even though, if it weren't for the haiku, I don't know any of these people and would care less... but anyway!)
Good thing that person doesn't read my 'ku! Though I have found this year's snow to be very 'ku-spirational.
SURVEY!

No news is good news?
This is too funny! At least he's taking it all in stride ...
