Trilce XLV

Me desvinculo del mar
cuando vienen las aguas a mi.

Y si así diéramos las narices
en el absurdo,

One laptop per child

Starting November 12, and just for 2 weeks XO Giving (Negroponte behind it) will be offering a Give 1 Get 1 Program; pay 400 bucks and get 2 notebooks, one for you and one for a kid. Shame it’ll be only available in America.
