What I'll remember from Penang

Shivering violently in a pool at 1 a.m. and running down a thin, winding, and pebbly road. My feet were bruised after the latter. My chest ached after the former.

***

The British soldier said, "I died in the name of Queen Victoria!"
The American said, "I died in the name of Abraham Lincoln!"

The Chinese soldier said with his dying breath, "Chee-bye."

***

Ipoh horfun is damn bloody good.
