-- The Year
of the
Rooster --
As you begin the New Year, it may be time to
rethink
and possibly reshuffle your priorities so that you
spend more time living the kind of life you
and those who love you would be proud of.
This poem called "What
Will Matter" may provide a useful guide.

Asia Tsunami -- Dec. 26, 2004
On a more solemn note....
Also, a local NGO group, The Japan Emergency Team,
Japan's only non-government related disaster relief team, has arrived
in the Phuket, Thailand area. The team is appealing for
assistance for the disaster. You can learn more at http://www.jhelp.com/en/index_e.html.
A final
thought: Many are asking, "If there's a God, how could he let
something like this happen?" Here are some interesting articles
on the topic:
And now, on a more lighthearted
note......

Then move through space towards the Earth
in successive orders of magnitude until you reach
a tall oak tree just outside the buildings of the
National High Magnetic Field Laboratory in Tallahassee, Florida.
After that, begin to move from the actual size of a leaf
into a microscopic world that reveals leaf cell walls,
the cell nucleus, chromatin, DNA and finally,
into the subatomic universe of electrons and protons.

Well, I guess that's
all for now. Thanks for visiting.
I sincerely hope this web site has been a culturally rewarding
experience
for you (joke).
It's grown considerably since first being launched in Jan. '97,
and it is unlikely you will be able to see everything in only 1 visit.
So please bookmark this site and come back when you can stay longer.
Or as we say back in Texas,
"Y'all come back now, ya heah?"
Happy surfing !!
And don't forget to drop
me a line if you have time.
If you have any comments, suggestions, complaints,
or would just like to yell at me,
