I hope to make myself understood

Monday, December 29th, 2008

This year I hope to make myself understood.

I hope to be more clear with what I say and what I intentionally communicate. I hope to better understand things I’m unintentionally communicating. I hope to communicate better with my wife, my children and my students.
For all of you, I hope life is good
All the best,Wayne

Congratulations America, and the world

Friday, November 7th, 2008

Hello All

Congratulations on a wonderful choice for President.

The world joins you in an admixture of joy and relief.
Such is the measure of hope that President Obama has inspired that here in East Java we’ve just had an election for governor where only 54% voted -due to apathy, and disgust over corruption – while Obama’s path to the Presidency has been closely observed.

Fairly, or unfairly, the world’s hopes ride on his slender shoulders.

All the best, Wayne
