話說電影《凶心人》 (Memento) 的主角患了一種失憶病，就是不能夠將短期記憶，轉變為長期記憶。所以，每數十分鐘便會甚麼也記不得剛剛發生過甚麼事，所以身上滿佈紋身筆記。當問他最後記得的東西是甚麼，他說是他被襲擊時

一個故事的終結
希拉莉的總統夢宣告粉碎那天，幾個平日只看娛樂版的男律師，忽然在地球的另一面關心起美國政治來。
「你都有今日啦！」Eric 一邊看CNN，一邊習習聲地咬著蘋果。Pantry 一時間聚集了好幾個溜出來吹水的同事，大家
Why 'file as blog entry' blog engines have problems
One enduringly popular model for blogging engines is that entries willbe files in the filesystem, and the blog engine will just wrap themup in various simple ways.

願望與力量
今年異議聲音的一段自由jam歌。遲了開機，聽了半晌你會發現那是熟悉的歌，後來你會發現，那是我們共同的願望。純為紀錄，畫面搖晃（upload後黑得看不見自由戰士的翅膀），因為我不唱歌不與人同坐只在黑暗中流眼淚。北京來
