引述
July 27 A friend send me a videoA more the 30-year friend sent me a video through the email, and I got the message of some sort of
a missionary telling about his personal experience with his faith. Priests and ministers like to tell us
God's way for us is this; it's that. Mr Newhouse says its not, it has to be a conversation between God
and we ourselves..., when in solitude; in peace; in quietness... . When we meditate under the light of
the Bible's teachings..., we are supposed to follow God's ways, in humility..., Jesus is a man of grief and
sorrow. and we shouldn't just take life in a momentary live; drink and be merry attitude... . We live, because
God allows and wants us to... . 談論主題 喔！ - metalcat - Yahoo! BLOG
引述
July 07 Today is the commemoration of the Lu Kau Bridge incidentProtesters raising upheaval in Urumqi today, thousand hurt. This Xinjiang place got
Turks and other races; the Uyrgyi tribes and they got into conflicts with the
southerners.
Hate to see violence and fights... .
It's definitely not a show and fighting is not a good sports where there's no win-win
situations.... . April 22 Definitely think you can't even trust the media or any printed onesWent to an interview today and the "professor" from Yale and Columbia, a chinese hilly billy, said he wants to
give me a test! Translating his writing into chinese which has to match 80% exactly as his chinese original, ie, by
reading his own "english" masterpiece translation, I'm suppose to translate it back and think 80% exactly like him!!!
His masterpiece first talks about history; then geography; then pottery; then development; then geometry!!! All
in the first page of a actually perfectly binded printed book!
In artform, we call this corsage? or collage??? This is just trying to be funny... .
Yes, new art form, new way of expression.
Then, he says my translation is illogical, full of grammatical mistakes; and all this shit! And he says no chinese understands it.
And from my resume, he saysI'm good for nothing. Still, he says he would consider giving me a job! Sx days a week;
nine to six; 7000 bla bla bla.
A mad man hiring another one; nothing is real; strawberry fields forever... .
Another thing; radio talk show host Mr Chip Tao kept on nagging about scabbied hands and athlete's foot to describe the situation
in S. and Latin America. 甚麽毁內睡奶; 甚麽古巴馬; 離加拉爪卻不談利智; 波利維亞; 千里達, 確扮成南美大代表專家.
As a coincidence; Mr (i don't even bother to remember his name; oh yeah, it's fuckin Lee Cheuk Yan) used
"scabbied hands and athlete's foot" to describe HK Banks investment failure in the States; which has to be paid off by laying off HK staff.
What's so shameful about "scabbied hands and dermatosis"??? These people think with their heads? Talk with their dicks?
Eat with their anuses?
"Scabbied hands and dermatosis" is not shameful, it's the crown of those who sacrifice their skin doing dirty jobs; like handling
garbage; like cleaning dirty toilets and shower curtains in public showers used by slobs and roaches; like pest-controlling using
poisonous pesticides; like soaking hands in diesel; grease; paint or pig shit. Only turkey bastards would be so ignorant as to think
scabbies and dermatosis is something to laugh or mock about.
Wish you, Mr Tao and Mr Lee CY will never have the honor to be 損手爛脚 but be forever 皮光肉嫰 and 油頭粉面 instead. Since it sounds so much
flowerier; prettier; sissieer; jazzier; sassier; fancier; whateverier for you elegant and clean and high class gentlemen; suits people like you, perfectly.
November 29 The difference between an "educated" and an "intellectual"You can make an "educated" guess, but you don't say you made an "intelligent" or "intellectual" guess.
Intellectuals are noisier, though Mr Tao doesn't claim himself to be one, perhaps he doesn't dar, I'd like
to say he is. Me, I consider myself just another blabber mouth. Mr Tao is indeed an intellectual because
he feels qualified to comment that there are no intellectuals locally. Perhaps, there actually are, but they
just don't dare or simply feel modest enough not even to mention the word "intellectual". You see, us people
have a famous history of persecuting the intellectuals... .
July 09 Harmony is... .Harmony is... love: unabridged, undiscounted, unconditional.
It's thinking less about the self and more about the marriage; siblinghood; family; friends and others... .
Guess it's time to call this quits before I burn off another one's drop of fuel for this monitor and CPU and computer... .
So much for this garble garble gobble gobble; tomorrow, I'll be off trying out for a job, forever job-chasin; forever
chasin after jobs; cash; credits; this and that..., really keepin me goin on and on and on... . Talking about Did you know you need a cert. to clean toilets??
Quote Did you know you need a cert. to clean toilets?? July 05 Did you know you need a cert. to clean toilets??Read Title.
You need a cert. for a lot of things now, you need a cert to show that you're out of work. you need a cert to show that you're crazy,
you need a cert to prove you are dead... .
And I'm definitely weird; abnormal; and 100%dum; pure dum, someone certify me??? Don't forget the degree of dumness; it needs
to be quantified... .
My point is, no matter how good you are; or bad you are, interviewers are always, always fond of dissecting you first or even
getting into any tiny or error or fault in your CV, certs, continuities from job to job, etc. God, what exactly are probations for anyway,
are all these dissecting and digging for faults necessary??? The official the went on the radio 18th floor Block C showGood ol Mr Ma; went on the 18C radio show on its 40th birthday, he resigned from government
because of a "AC/DC" abnormal arterial/venal growth; I call it AC/DC which the doctors say is
probably malignant. So similarly was other resignees diagnosed with malignant or
terminal diseases and, still will most likely live on to see the Beijing Olympics and probably
the 2012 and 2016?
Mr Ma has great credentials cross continents and his rank in government is not trivial. In the
show, he plays an investment manager who manages a charity fund. Even in a show, he'plays
such an important part. Could it be a satire? The government giving out candies? Could it be some
kind of a solution; suggestion or inspiration for people to think seriously about starting up charity
funds to redistribute wealth for a good cause??? God knows what some people's real intention
are... .
Anyway, Mr Ma, you're a good man, and I salute your courage!!! Anyone with credentials ike you
are bound to have something wrong with their heads. Let alone those with super high IQ; intelligence
clearances; those who know too much... . To let go of this helluva job
and do something; or at least; deliver a message that's meaningful. Instead of participating in
barking at each other in an antique building... . is indeed much much more worth the while... . June 02 Where is my blog???Missing blog. Wanted. Blog, alive... .
I had this whole lot of blabbering on my blog since years and its gone recently.
Something about Chinese barns; about Shirley Temples; about Fire in Junk Bay;
about Jonathan Livingston Seagull; about husbands acting good examples to wives;
about God's teaching... .
And one day, swoosh, it's all gone up in smokes (this is imagery)... .
Hope its got nothing to do with freedom of speech, pray it's not... . February 24 Be thankful for every passing day22:53 almost another day; I'm thankful I made it to the Sunday service and the sermon I heard.
Another day, another dollar. I didn't work today, it's a Sunday, but my wife and me did spend quite
some bit. On meals, on grocery, a watch (wooden shelled) and something else... . We rested for I am
down with a cold and I am treated with some medicine. Feeling much better now after the nap in the afternoon.
It sure's been a long cold spring; it was drizzling a bit today and the plants on the balcony were growing quite well.
I watered and gave it some fertilizer. The wife cleaned the rabbits cage and we bought some Forti-Diet for them.
That's about all the agrculture we did on our part. Not much else we could do... . Life remembering there is a God is indeed
rewarding. I got a new job, but I don't credit myself for it, I believe it's all God's doing and there's nothing I can do without
God... ., not that I will have my crumbs if I do nothing, still, I'll try on and do what I can to upkeep myself and my state of mind... .
I'm thankful, though sometimes, the work I do is physically demanding... .
 Months later... .
Looks like some people green with youKNOWwat is dying to see how sane I'll become without work, whaddya know, "Long
Vacation" time again, if only they'd give me a break giving me less challenges to the limits, like what? Yeah, like working
Mr Bean up the Arnold Schwarzenaegger, or Mr Bean up the Einstein way. Butt, I'm neither of any. Like telling me to move
a tonne of steel drill rods down a short slope; like giving me a hard time sniffing chloroform or some low grade thinner or
some hazardous enough chemicals that make me allergic; like telling me to climb up 10 feet ladders to clean louvres; like helping
lifting a hunk of a air conditioner up for fixture with two other helpers on ladders or walk in the sun from one place to another
ending up 8,9 places in a day; day after day; week after week; month after month. Yes, if this is not training for a good career,
every second counts, my training starts any day; from I don't know when to I don't know when; anywhere; all-weather; in every
form; bending; cranking; twisting;squishing; squatting; squirming; extending; lifting; whatever they will think of next; then it must be the
engineering of that finale accident that will end me off... . See, they'd die to see if I'm still thankful.
Tell you what, if I'm not thankful, would I be sitting up through this night to keep on hacking this keyboard and nagging and
groaning and moaning. As I always say, I may not be strong, I may not be able to do everything, there IS something I can do
and have done. Those occasions? I quit... . I didn't want people to believe I'm all muscles plus all brains, I'm not. I don't like to
be in peoples' ways to "success" neither. I'd like to let people know people with faith can do things proper instead of just
poking calculators and keyboards; sitting pretty in their offices without ever visiting or sweating in the field hardly ever for one
single half-day; and they can still "survive" their jobs their "work hard but smart" way. But then, when you do things proper, they
begin to like you in your spot and keeps you frozen there? Then you can get bored just as they've designed it and just, leave, that's
in perfect calculation and economical. Ziz iz management. It only need a punctuation mark to make some phrase make sense. If,
you know what i mean... . I am a dollar note even if I'm a crumpled one.
Training is forever, this is like the Hindu caste system, you're a slave, you're a slave for life. An educated slave for life, or
as a previous employer puts it, a dishwasher drinking Heineken is a "dishwasher with taste", but I was still a dishwasher, nothing more.
Mind you, so what if your graduated with a BSc, you can still be bummed off a dishwasher job by some pregnant woman whom the boss
says she needs the job more (actually, she's probably his pregnant wive's sister)... . Whadda... . Well, you can always sabotage something;
fix-up some figures; twist this and that around; and presto, there, you can be a boss too, for you've created jobs for a poor trouble-shooter
or auditor who has to untangle all the knots from that mess you've created for whatever "good" reason that was orginally and tactfully
intentioned, be it a shortage of parts; labor or time.
Oh yeah, it's always the newcomers fault, for he's the least experienced, least skilled and moment he's fired or ousted, all dirt goes out with him; all
blames go with him and the company starts with a full clean slate... . Or, fire or oust the sucker before you have to commit to hire him for a year
and contribute to his mandatory provident fund. Or, keep on using the government's subsidy programs for middle-age employees,
teenagers; interns; get all the benefits before committing him to contract employment and apply for a new candidate and more continual subsidy.
How wonderful and fortunate the world is so full of smartalecs??? My Cross
I bear my cross; sometimes it's heavy; but all in all, it keeps me blessed and it's about all I have to say, for now... . The sound of silenceSometimes we realize when we quiet down and rest ourselves in a room with no noise; we can hear bells ringing in our ears.
Could be high frequency waves that's shaking our eardrums, I really don't know. But it's not a good sign, some health experts say,
the Chinese Medical Doctors say when the ears ring, it means we are weak from either not having enough sleep or not well-nourished.
Some times we can hear such high frequency sounds from TV, but even when we switch off the TV, the ringing persists; could it be something
that relates to our memory???
I could find this out by asking others on the Yahoo Quiz module but meanwhile; I'll just ponder at this strange phoenomena and see if the ringing
in my ears will go away... .
 I can still remember when I was studying in Canada, everything really quiets down, no bell ringing, when its silent at night. Not that the moon is rounder
overseas, there's just less noise from radios; TVs; passer-bys; less honking of horns; less yelling; less decibels humming and hissing and weeing in the background.
And, the best thing is, slower pace, less stress... . In some towns, pedestrians really pace slower; speak more quietly where you don't have to compete to
get yourself heard..., yes, perhaps, after all, this is the reason why, some people think the moon overseas is indeed rounder... . February 11 Talking about Stories from the front line - Military - MSNBC.com
Quote If it weren't for crooks and offenders; we wouldn't need cops... . Stories from the front line - Military - MSNBC.com February 04 Dis thing call the "barn" is darn depressingWell, to be honest, this is not my first draft, writing about this Barn Art Gallery at the ToKwaWan (old KaiTak vicinity).
The Barn is located in a modernly-recently-urbanized residential area, and it was really a barn for cows back in the 60s, I
believe. I said that, because I could barely smell lots of cows as I rode buses passing by the Barn back in some of those days.
Us Chinese, some of us know, Barns were not good treatments for the educated during the Cultural Revolution back in the 40s.
Now in the 2008, I tend to smell something but could not sense what it really is.
Elton John had the song, "he's going back to his plough". But with the allergens and the new thosian and thisian disease; the Thisian
and Thatian Flu, its really difficult for the hackers to put down the keyboards and go back to the "plough". What a way to think of to
"punish" the brain-workers... .
Last thing but the least, I keep on blabbering and wasting energy, but I hope brings some people to the light that if they really have something
constructive to say, please voice it out and let people have some solution as to the dilemmas and problems we all are encountering
in this "cold-green-house-affected" world. January 24 You might wonder about my name; kinda weird?In case you wonder about the name I gave myself: short-lived lizard sharpei dogleg: I've never see myself
as anything important, look at my career: it's in a total mess.
Short life; never-mind. I mean, I have a good wife and life's been treating me well, but as long as life
is colorful and filled with something, call it content, call it stuffed up..., life doesn't necessarily have to
be long to be desirable. I've worked at hospitals: looking at the elderlies poked with tubes and needles
and not being able to go to the toilet..., I wish I could go..., in a better shape, or form, or whatever.
Dog-leg? Chinese people like to call people dogs, dead dog, crazy dog; and running dogs; and there's this
running leg thing: meaning a messenger who runs around. Well, I guess that pretty well answer most of
the FAQs about this crazy name I gave myself. Lizard? It means lizard and it rhymes with "knowing how to
translate" in Chinese; "Cantonese", that is. It was a nick my students gave me when I used to teach... .
Local news say the recent stock slide caused some 50 or 500 billion of USD face value to evaporate from the
market. I had even trouble counting the digits in that number, let alone the accountants and brokers and
data-entrists who collaborated and cooperated to clear up that amount in such short notice. They and the computers
must have a few nights of sleepless overwork overnight... . It is, I mean, indeed, a crazy world, after all. January 18 Talking about DisIsAFloodLight
Quote You can call this a spot light or you can call this a flood light cos it floods a football field with light; not an eay task to set up considering you have to tilt it up 90 degrees to about 7~8 M high..., engineering? construction? power? connections? coordination? not easy!!! While it lights the players all participating in games and their audience taking sides and cheering their team... .; these are efforts; these are recreation... . DisIsAFloodLight December 21 You feed the rabbits well, and they don't raise hellNo work today, I noticed when I keep my rabbits well fed, they stop jumping and running around, making a lot of noise.
Guess I'm a rabbit too, instead of a dog...,
  I'm well fed, so I'm not BS ing as much........ December 20 Valentino's name was Rudolph; was he red-nosed and did he make a scene?Rudolph the red-nosed reindeer,
had a very shiny nose,
and all the reindeers loved him,
la la la la see it glow.
Then one foggy Christmas eve,
Santa came to say,
"Rudolph with you nose so bright,
won't you guide my sleigh tonite?"
"... they'd never let poor Rudolph,
join in any reindeer games..."
Couldn't really link any Valentino to Rudolph the reindeer or Valentine's day. Guess it doesn't make sense.
Valentines make me remember my present honey; and Rudolph reminds of Jasper and Santa Claus and winter conference and...,
well, long long time ago... .
Hope everybody thinks only about pleasant memories of past Christmases and may your 2007 Christmas be very memorable and pleasant one for years to come... .
  Them, three kings of Orient are,Bearing gifts, they traverse afar,
For'st and fountain, moors and mountain,
Following yonder star,
O- oh, star of wonder, star of nite,
star of royal, beauty bright...,
O carols, I am but a fool,
carols, I missed you,
messing all the rules,
Some lyrics, too bad I can't remember all of dem,
Ho, ho, ho , Deck the halls with boughs of hollies,
Fa la la la la, la la la , la
T'is the season to be jolly... ,
And it brings the Hollies back to my memory,
gotta stop, wishing you all a Never-ending Ever-going year-round Christmas... . ciao felix navidad, joyeux noel
