Haskin constantly gets drunk,
visits as many bars in Europe as
he can, and then is known as a
man's man after he kills himself?

or just the drunken passion part...

The Sun Also Rises was... uhmmm... redundantly depressing.

Tom Sawyer.

by Rush

A modern-day warrior
Mean mean stride,
Todays tom sawyer
Mean mean pride.

above with air guitar...

Hemingway would have never jammed
with an air guitar. He would have smacked
me over the head with a bottle of empty
spirits if he caught me trying.

Old Man And The Sea if I had to vote.

I like epic battles between man and fish.
George Bush thinks man and fish can
coexist peacefully. He is not a Hemingway
man.

Instead of banning future offending posters from this board, I suggest limiting their access to all threads save this one.

They'll gladly fall on their own swords.

I thought this thread was going to bury Haskin, not praise him.

Guess this means you don't wanna hear which poet you remind me of, huh?
