給林局長的歌



大磡歌

曲/詞:志雄

讓我心痛 但沒法落淚
看著這家裡 變做廢墟
我只想知道 這算是合理制度
我只想聽到 有沒有合理報導
拆屋兼封鋪 有家歸不到
妳知不知道 你知不知道
一個家園被摧毀的味道

The problem of charging for things (well, one of them)

People who want to charge relatively low fees for things often make theargument that people will pay because the charge is such a small amountof money that it is easily afforded, and people get great value for it.One of the problems of charging for things is that it doesn't work thisway.

《儘管如此我沒做過》(I Just didn't do it)


一 別十年, 周防正行做到最簡約的地步. 表面上以為他要說教、放棄娛樂性 (就連配樂的周防義和也「惜音如金」, 法庭上的靜音勝於一切) , 淡如水的節奏卻愈滾出戲味來. 跟前作《談談情, 跳跳舞》, 在《儘管如此我沒做過

Some things I dislike about the ASUS Eee

I should note that I actually like my Eee (for what it is). But everytime I try to write some sort of review of it, these things bubble up tothe top of my mind, so I am going to write them down to get rid of them.

背後的人

我有時會這樣形容一個歌者:背後有個人!

據說歌者的其中一項技巧,就是通過特別的發聲方法,使到聲音不單單只是從喉而發,而是引發身體不同部位產生共鳴,化身成一座喇叭,聲音得到放大,感覺深遠,嗓音直上雲霄,繞

明天要上班但我只想哭。

永遠塗不好深紫色甲油。

醫生說我有抑鬱症。

身處拉薩的各方記者開始在軍方監督下被迫撤離。這叫泱泱大國,泱泱大國。坐在家裡填表今天要交,看了新聞發急就哭。我們每天看著殺人,還要讓兇手把我們的眼闔上。雖然從小就追看奧運,希望奧運能在接近的地方舉行,

Why I expect more from Solaris
