愛與醜

上星期在系內讀書組討論同事那本講愛的書時,談到一個問題,竟然所有同事跟我持相反意見!那問題就是:如果你愛一個人(這裏說的是戀愛,romantic love),可不可以同時覺得他/她樣子醜陋?(If you love someone, can you find him/her ugly?)所

不能每天去旅行,最少也可以每天看旅遊節目。

除了常看的財經台 Bloomberg CNBC 之外, Discovery Channel 的Travel & Living幾乎是我們家的default channel。

旅遊能豐富我們的人生,時間許可又有能力負擔的話,我相信大部份人都會喜歡出外旅遊,品味一下世界各地的風土人情。

只可惜,我們的工作總都是盲著地忙

印度男兒本色 《Dabangg》(暴烈刑警)


看印片, 我絕少會選擇「 Salman Khan 系」的電影. 除了寶萊塢版「真情」《 Hum Aapke Hain Kaun! 》(1994) 及與前度女友 Aishwarya Rai 合作的《 Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam 》(Straight from my heart, 1999) 外, 對Salman Khan向來避之則吉.

Abortion III

I advocate legal abortion being implemented does not mean I agree with the very act of abortion.

這是詩嗎?

昨天朋友從香港電郵給我一則剪報,報導的是武漢市紀委書記 車延高 憑詩集《嚮往溫暖》獲得第五屆魯迅文學獎詩歌獎,消息引來各方批評,例如國內詩人沈浩波說:「魯迅文學獎是可以用錢買來的。不少魯獎得主是用錢買的,

「被人理解」究竟是怎麼一回事?

有些人,例如某些年輕人,說,希望大家能夠明白他。叫人明白你,是甚麼意思?這是指,你做出一些別人能夠理解,有經驗可以對照的行為,讓人明白你。例如你想道歉,於是你說「對不起」

週末不在家,我就在旅途上—-Samantha Brown的Great Weekends系列又來了!

Samantha Brown (珊曼莎‧布朗)的確是一個可人兒,她具備一個旅遊節目主持人應有的最重要之一個條件,就是既有自己的個性,卻又可融入當地文化,隨時化身街坊。

想不到,我和她的初次見面,是我和太太前往其公關活動的場地,正

Druplicon in a Pumpkin

My feeble attempt:

Druplicon Pumpkin - Druplikin

I've seen a few others in the Planet feed, and this year I had a really nice round pumpkin, so I figured, 'What the heck?' I've done a couple Apple-logo pumpkins in the past. Next year I may go for a more carved approach - with different depths of carving for a more Death Star-like effect .


Who's the Nerdiest Nerd this Halloween?

Jeff with Druplicon Pumpkin

I'm definitely not the nerdiest guy in the world, but I sure do try! See the pumpkin in all it's halloween glory on Flickr: Druplicon Pumpkin - Druplikin .


All Hallows Eve

This guy knows how to celebrate Halloween... with lights, Michael Jackson, and a healthy dose of creativity:
