Sergey Brin Poem

Sergey is a grad student at Stanford (computer science). He does data mining and (with his friend Larry) developed a search engine GOOGLE which he claims is the best. He turned 25 this August (1998). On that occasion Michael Brin, his father, wrote the following poem.

You are growing stronger
In body, spirit and mind.
I am getting older
Leaving decades behind.

You are tough, you mine data,
You surf first and think later,
And your crawler fast as light
Wanders madly in the night.

You work hard to squeeze a thesis
From the world wide web of feces.
You live abroad on the sunny coast
To you, my son I propose a toast.

In the stately oval office
Clinton grimly counts his losses,
Plumpy interns taking turns,
Many wonderful returns!
