Ilove the days before 1997 though. The ringgit was RM2.50 to the dollar and Amazon.com was still a pipe dream in Jeff Bezos head. Those were the good ole days.<BR/><BR/>Of course we have curry in Malaysia. (The curry the Brits are having is not curry!) Our curry is so good it gave a whole new perspective to the song Great Balls Of Fire!Wombathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15980758443218866873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1914021364911442901.post-49178840990256067632007-05-22T21:14:00.000-05:002007-05-22T21:14:00.000-05:00Famous for 15 megapixels: You've got to laugh...<A HREF="http://stefzucconi.blogspot.com/2007/05/youve-got-to-laugh.html#links" REL="nofollow">Famous for 15 megapixels: You've got to laugh...</A>Najhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17728668942925956610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1914021364911442901.post-28457969936346260182007-05-22T06:44:00.000-05:002007-05-22T06:44:00.000-05:00David, thanks for your visit and comment.David, thanks for your visit and comment.Fleminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11134828658060646685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1914021364911442901.post-60567687299573738932007-05-22T06:43:00.000-05:002007-05-22T06:43:00.000-05:00Wombat, I just looked at the exchange rate $US v. ...Wombat, I just looked at the exchange rate $US v. Malaysian Ringgit (RM) and I see what you mean. Right now you spend over RM 3 for a dollar. If things go on as they are, you'll be able to fly over here and buy all the books you want for the price of a good curry dinner in Malaysia. (I hope you have curry dinners there. I love curry. Of course as an American, I may not be able to afford the US $100,000 price of a rijstafel. But that's Indonesia, isn't it? Anyway, I won't be able to afford to travel anywhere over there because of the $300,000,000 price of a ticket. This is sounding worse and worse. Shelley is really going to be cheered up now.)Fleminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11134828658060646685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1914021364911442901.post-91824068360628395612007-05-22T06:30:00.000-05:002007-05-22T06:30:00.000-05:00Shelley, I got a million of 'em.
