End of Contest 5!
According to www.time.gov, it's now midnight, and Contest 5 is over. Let's just say that the bird above is Jen, and the potato chip is a haiku!
Jen made a superb showing and she won the feeder, fair and square!
The final score was:
- Jen: 66
- Monika: 53
- Joanne: 14
- Joni: 11
- Kate: 9
- Laura: 9
- Teresa: 3
- Archie: 2
- Craig: 2
- Joanne T: 0
- Detlef: -1
The math answer was the cube-root of 1/27th, which is 1/3. Sooner or later, all of you got that. Congrats...
Concerning the haiku... Great stuff! And Jen et al, you might not want to stop writing haiku just yet. Traditional haiku typically deals with seasons and water. Writing that style of poem is very calming.
See you by the feeders, and keep your eyes open! You just never know...
