Hard News: Whatever It takes

Poetry in motion (Robert Oliphant, LA Times)

Professor Oliphant, congratulations to you for taking iambic verse to a whole new level. Further kudos for not only teaching, but embracing a willingness to be taught. Seems to me this is a key to keeping young.

NOW is the WIN-TER of our DIS-CON-TENT made GLOR-I-OUS SUM-MER by this SON of YORK!

Okay everyone, join Professor Oliphant. Hit the deck and give me fifty!
