Update: Southeast Asian Edition

Just a quick update...I have been traveling throughout Southeast Asia for the past few weeks.  Between a typhoon, lack of power, crappy internet connection (when it is even available) and a nearly week-long illness (I was getting to the point of dragging myself to the "hospital" thinking I had Dengue or malaria but fortunately have recovered) I haven't been able to post anything.  I should have a half dozen new blog posts for you by next week however so check back back soon.
