I saw a metaquotes that came from your journal about Malaysian/Singaporean Literature. I've been to Singapore on 2 seperate occasions, and have been in most coastal countries in Asia at one point or another. Almost bought a horror anthology published in Singapore, but figured between my final choices while there, one with 2 stories about Outraged Modesty probably wouldn'te be the most effective choice. Then again, I had a hard time getting into "Turn of the Screw" as it's based on the horror of 2 children being influenceed by Victorian degenerates who aren't in line with the social order, whereas I myself am a pervert and find it hard to be worked up about this. Not a pedophile or anything like that, just aware that my sexual preference is well outside that of Christian or Muslim fundamentalists.

Oddly, one of my favorite beers in the world was brewed in Malaysia (ABC Stout). Realize that probably bans me for life, but we do have a few interests in common otherwise. Is it OK if I add you?
