[OLPC-Games] Speaking of Poetry

[Todd Kelsey]

by the way:

1) kids like Mad Libs. or at least when i was a kid we did

2) hawaiian should be the official language of the xo I think. because it is
so silly sounding. it would be nice to have a hawaiian version of the
magnetic poetry.

for example: wiki, melakalikimaka, ooeiieekkiikkookwwwkiiiooe makawookiewaki
surely means something.

"Fascinating for me to sit here and realize the interplay and influence that
music can have -- it is a part of my life, yet I haven't continued as I
could, partly out of thinking "there are more important things". but it has
it's place. i am sitting at olpc offices, and someone is playing pink floyd,
and I think music is a gift of creativity that can inspire an atmosphere of
creativity, and the range of such echoes is infinite." - Me
