The Old Wild Stampede These horses came thundering onto the scene while I was walking down the road. I got myself behind a tree so I would not get trampled like Mufasa.

This is Ranjit Ranjit's dream is that he gets to work in the factory again.Ranjit is currently sitting in front of an old restaurant on the outskirts of Kuala Lumpur. He used to work in a nearby factory, making aluminum parts, but he was replaced after his cataracts got too heavy and he began making mistakes. Ranjit does not like being a burden on his son, who doesn't come to see him much anymore. He says, motioning off into the distance behind me, "The boy is in Putrajaya, living in government house." He keeps reaching out in that direction, groping around, as if he is trying to find a light switch in the dark.- Trey RatcliffClick here to read the rest of this post at the Stuck in Customs blog.
