Spencer's Interests
General
Travel...especially Latin America. Since 1991, I've traveled to Mexico 15 times (through 17 states), Guatemala and Belize 3 times, Honduras and Peru (twice), Bolivia and Costa Rica (once). Spent three weeks in Spain in May/June 2004. Loved it...though most of the trip centered around five cities: Madrid, Sevilla, Cadiz, Granada, and Ronda. Would very much like to return...perhaps when the U.S. Dollar strengthens a bit against the Euro.
Contemplating a trip to Argentina and/or Chile in December 2006. Venezuela is a good possibility as well. Always dreaming of Brazil, sighing about Colombia, and thinking about Mexico ;)
Cheers to wherever you may land!

"The Optimist Creed," is quoted from Science of Mind 71 (June 1998): Promise Yourself To be so strong that nothing can disturb your peace of mind. To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person you meet. To make all your friends feel that there is something worthwhile in them. To look at the sunny side of everything and make your optimism come true. To think only of the best, to work only for the best and to expect only the best. To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as you are about your own. To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future. To wear a cheerful expression at all times and give a smile to every living creature you meet. To give so much time to improving yourself that you have no time to criticize others. To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble. To think well of yourself and to proclaim this fact to the world, not in loud word, but in great deeds. To live in the faith that the whole world is on your side, so long as you are true to the best that is in you.
Thanks :) I am a big fan of ACDC as of lately (partially to be blamed on Mr. J Erwine) The big balls song really makes me smile as well :)
The move went well. It was a little stressful. But over all, it was great. It feels awesome to be finally settled in. The weather is a little too rainy for me. But what can you do? :)
How is TX treating you? Good luck on the unpacking :)
