~~Rainy~~ Teary Start of the Year
Mississauga (January 2005)

"New Year's Day is every man's birthday."- Charles Lamb

If it's green, it's biology, If it stinks - it's chemistry, If it has numbers - it's math, If it doesn't work, it's technology.

Not true at all.

The big change with this holiday season versus our past Christmases was that we got to maximize the potential of technology. Despite the distance, we were able to celebrate Noche Buena (in the Philippines) together as a family. Siblings were connected. We were able to see Mamarazzi's radiant smile despite the distance, Paparazzi - funny in his own quiet, or quiet in his own funny way! We were teary eyed to see Jake and Zia half-awake at 1 in the morning to celebrate their first Christmas, without their tito and tita.

But despite all that, we settled for the second best thing, being connected through technology.

This can very well be an ad for a webcam company.
