May Day - Malay Melee!

Hey, I was just reading on the home page that this Blog is now available in Malaysia! ATTENTION Malay party animals - if you need a professional Fire Eater for your upcoming Malay Melee, please contact us immediately! This act is hot. In fact, it's perfect for Diwali, your Hindu Festival of Lights.

(For you Westerners in my audience, Diwali is the evolution of
the ancient Sanskrit word Deepavali, translating loosely to "an array of lights signifying the victory of brightness over darkness." The 5-day festival focuses on various virtures each day, as celebrants contemplate good deeds, strength, knowledge, peace and purpose of life. Diwali is reportedly as significant to the Hindus as Xmas to the Christians, but - if they're not exchanging heartfelt gifts like hard liquor, violent video games and $5,000.00 Cartier handbags, how sacred a holiday can it be?)
