These days we're very well connected here at Maison KL. Only a very few years ago a trip here meant some degree of uncertainty with regard to getting on-line. Now we rarely if ever have a problem and with our Astro service finally restored we have Sky News, CNN, the BBC and Al Jazeera, among others, to tell us what's going on in the world.
The problem is, of course, that these days it might be better not to know. For example, I watched a discussion on CNN this evening relating to the phenomenon known as Brexit and rather wished I hadn't.
Reminds me of one of James Thurber's mordant morals to those pithy fairy-tales he used to come up with: Run, don't walk, to the nearest desert island.
