Ruminations from around the globe
Having grown up on a tropical island (focus on present) with a Dutch (Protestant, future focus) government/educational system, this presentation really struck a chord with me. http://youtu.be/A3oIiH7BLmg

I'm a mutt with a streak of Argentine, Dutch, French, and US in me. Married to a beautiful Siciliana/Japanese woman and with a daughter and son. I speak 6 languages and mumble a couple others. I've worked as a biz guy at a number of consulting groups and gone through 3 IPOs, most recently selling a company I founded. I'm now helping startups focused on the intersection of the Internet and Media.

This is really profound. I grew up on mainland, in a mild orthodox family, completely future oriented. Studied In an american like school system. But I lost my family values long before I even understood what that supose to mean. And not because we did not have them. Just because people always tried to imply them to me. And we can talk days on this matter...
P.S. Still hoping to buy you a cold Mexican beer, on a not so hot evening anymore. There are still questions to be answered. For real this time.
