珍珠

它,不過是一隻很普通的淡粉紅珍珠耳環,從小店買回來,本來,是一雙的。

不喜鑽石的耀目,不喜玉石的冰冷,就是喜歡它的溫柔。

兩年來,這點點顏色照亮了我的臉頰,伴我工作遊遍世界。

然後,今天,其中一隻從耳

自殺還是謀殺?

阿祖生意失敗,負債纍纍,決定自殺,一大清早便在自己最愛喝的十八年陳Glenlivet裏放了毒藥,以示必死的決心,待處理了一切死前要交帶的事情後,晚上回家一邊喝毒酒,一邊聽Bruckner第八交響曲,悲壯而高雅地離開人世。

阿占是阿祖

Why I change font sizes

A commentator on my recent entry on how programs should make it easyto change the font size asked me toexplain why I'd do this and said that they didn't even change the fontsize in Firefox, which boggles me quite a lot. When I boil it downenough, there are two reasons.

萬梓良是我的偶像,很多朋友都知道。

《人生音像城》改版時,編輯叫我新寫一段新的自我介紹,我是個很舊的人,實在沒有新的自我介紹,終於還是寫了,最後突然心血來潮


講心和講金

若干年前,美國一個非牟利機構發信給一些律師,說機構需要法律服務,卻付不起昂貴的律師費,問他們肯不肯只收每小時三十美元的服務費。美國的律師動輒收每小時二、三百美元,你說他們肯不肯只收一折的價錢?你猜對了

What I want in a caching nameserver

What the world needs is a good caching nameserver. What brought this onis that I am currently flirting with yet another caching nameserver,which is something that I do from time to time because every cachingnameserver I've ever found sucks in its own way.

事不關己


最近讀到某位文化名人被一位所謂前輩作者「修理」了,那篇修理文章,我讀了很不喜歡,因為的確是為修理而修理,為了否定一個人而努力找出他文章的疏漏之處,並且把幾個錯誤組合起來,加以發揮,竭力證明對方因為受歡

甚至試過,將在7仔買的哈根大師雪糕杯放入Chanel手袋內。

不過,生活。

好友說,她的男友對於她與我作伴吃飯逛街,有點保留。

因為,他對我的印象,總是停留於一星期四晚跳舞至天明,周末約會要分上半場下半場,連gals' gathering也硬生生帶幾個男性朋友出席的那些年。

聽了,不覺無辜,只是嘆氣。
