Hawaiian Greeting

May happiness, like trade winds, daily wake thee.

May laughter, joyously, as breakers, shake thee.
May strength, like coco palms storm-bent, sustain thee.
The ancient shark of discontent, disdain thee.
May tribute, rich as island chief's, be paid thee.
Canoes, designed of wisdom's wood, be made thee.
And may the star of friendship help thee steer
A graceful voyage through the coming year.

Have a wonderful holiday season

Looking forward to interacting with you in 2005,
during the new century (at least part of it),
during the new millenium (just a tiny bit of it)
