Kuala Lumpur

Well, I am here in Kuala Lumper. I am in Malaysia for work (actually for a work conference). I was not really sure what the place would be like. I only know of Malyasia through old Bette Davis movies (the Letter) and Ed's distain for the Petronas Towers once they exceeded the Sear's Tower as the world's tallest building (a record that has since been taken - first by Hong Kong, now by One Taipei).

And, I have learned over time that old Bette Davis' movies and bitter rivals aren't always the best sources of information.

It was a 16 + hour flight, and the westin room is painfully nice so I think I might sleep a little before doing much else. I can say this - the Towers are very pretty; I see them out my room window.

More later.
