I may have mentioned that our neighborhood has an email group where all sorts of things are exchanged. Today a father posts that his 8 year old son wants to learn Swahili. I'm curious to see what the response to that will be. I know we are a reasonably diverse community but that seems a little on the edge, at least among people I know, and I hope there is someone in the "hood" who will be delighted to teach a young child Swahili. We often have lemonade stands set up by children, but this last weekend some little ones had a juggling stand. You could watch them juggle. I know there is great discussion on disconnection, but more and more it seems to me the net is bound with openness of exchange.

The sun is shining!
Where I live the sun is shining and the buds have popped out so the plum trees are waving white. We've had months of rain, record breaking rain and…
