I´m Spanish and I´m teaching Art & Craft for children. I´m also trainer tachers and I am a researcher with the Seminario de Investigación para la Paz (The research center for peace in Zaragoza, Spain www.seipaz.org ). This month I´m teaching “ how to draw waves” and ... I found your class !!!!! Well, My aim is not only to draw waves. I try to develope their sensibility ... and I show them beautiful waves all around the world. Each place has interesting landscapes and people who make diference. I read that you did cubism to reinforce shapes. Great!!!!!!!!!!!! IF you send me a e-mail address I will attach you some works of my pupils. I hope you receive this e-mail without problems. I look forward to hearing from you. Sincerely, Mª Carmen Gascón . Dear Paul Blair:

Given the lack of inventory control and such, I can imagine that all the tools may have "gone missing" and perhaps Blair replaced them, but I can't believe the entire woodshop had gone missing.

I’m not sure how the story of “Blair, the VSO volunteer” got started, but when I arrived there in 1992, the woodshop and tools were already in place — although they had apparently not been used for years. Given the lack of inventory control and such, I can imagine that all the tools may have “gone missing” and perhaps Blair replaced them, but I can’t believe the entire woodshop had gone missing.

He's got a print of it hanging on his wall. Wait I just realized that sounds like I sleep with Matt whenever I'm in San Diego. HE HAS A GIRLFRIEND AND STAYS AT HER PLACE WHEN I VISIT SO THAT I CAN HAVE HIS BED INSTEAD OF SLEEPING ON THE COUCH DOWNSTAIRS! WE DO NOT SLEEP TOGETHER! I LIKE GIRLS! Well there goes my political career. That “famous Japanese painting” is pretty much the first thing I see when I wake up in Matt’s bed after a night of heavy drinking in San Diego.
