Comment on The Day of the Triffids by Marti

Yep, I had a Triffid also this year but didn’t know what it actually was. Even the lady who helps me with my plants didn’t know. A REAL Triffid perhaps? A good year all-in-all this year. Are the seeds for you or the birds?

Beautiful article – thanks for writing it. You help an outsider understand the ‘terrible beauty’ involved in writing code and designing software. A healthy combination of anaylsis and intuition. Keep writing!

Thank you, son, for honouring the memory of this dear man. The funeral was respectful and touching, and to see him carried to his gravesite by his ten grandsons is an image I will carry for the rest of my days. What a legacy of faithfulness he left behind.

Totally understand the airport description. Here we get off the plane on the tarmac and walk into customs which is still partially in open air. Sounds like you’re having a fabulous time.

Sounds fantastic. We never got to the floating village, but some day I would like to. Don’t know about the alligator though. You can get all kinds of bugs at roadside stalls on the way to Phnom Penh: cockroaches, beetles and of course grasshoppers. I never had the courage (or the stomach) but feel free.

Suria, Pavillion, BB Plaza, Low Yat and Berjaya Times Square, just for the record. With more mall square footage per capita than any other city in the world, malls are unavoidable in KL. But you really must see the skating rink and waterpark at Sunway Pyramid before you go.

Probably more your effort than mine, but somehow you seem to have gotten all your priorities right. At least the way I understand them, anyway. I never could quite understand that with only one life to live some people seem to want to spend it all on chasing trinkets. I’ve had trinkets. They break.

An old friend (Bill C) works at MS (Seadragon manager group or something like that – you know how computer savy I am). If you run into him (yeah, like it’s a small place), tell him Marti Perry says Hi.
