CNET 2000 year end Haikus

Bull in stock market

Ended up looking more like

Bull in China shop

 

Markets bleeding red

Dot-coms plummeting like stones

Wendy's, here I come

 

Time's Man of the Year

Now he is swimming upstream

Good luck, Jeff Bezos

 

A balloon rises

Borne on billowing hot air.

Then Blodget shuts up.

 

Yahoo they all cried

As 2000 got its start

Now they say "boo hoo"

 

Dot-commers abandon

their double-latte lifestyle.

Return to thin joe.

 

Techie boom was bound

to end. Just hope the Luddites

don't smirk us to death.

 

 Oyster blue dress shirts

 "Rollout!" "Synergy!" "Turn-key!"

 Wish I had a job

 

 These year-end reports

 Nostalgic and full of woe

 Reprise: damn Nasdaq

 

 Someone just shoot me

 If I buy some more tech stock

 In two thousand one
