>Here's a poem written to me by my son, who has lived in Peru for the past five years. I wish I understood Spanish, but I've only had tiny blocks of time to devote to it...

camina derecho

por palmeras curvados

la tierra debajo de ti se mueve

con las canoas

en silencio se expande

seducida por los horizontes

que seimpre est�n un d�a

adelante

Translated, it says...

walk straight

beneath curved palms

the Earth beneath you moves

with the canoes

expanding silently

allured by horizons

that are always a day

ahead

Sometimes that boy amazes me...

Best,

Ellis

>We had a maintenance guy in high school that everyone got along with. And he always wore a t-shirt with a big "SOB" on the front. You know, as in Superintendent Of Buildings. ;-)

Okay, so this isn't a building. But it is something you maintain and laid the foundation for.
