呀倫的愛情陷阱被選為金曲中的金曲，實至名歸。
而我心中，有個 version 是這樣的。
我正在入元朗
你卻在大排檔
始終不收檔。。。

我第一隻的 cassette 帶，就是愛的根源。到今天，我仍會懂得怎唱每一首歌。
我要過了很多年，才知道寫美麗動人歌詞的林敏聰，和在電視跟曾志曳搞笑的林敏聰，是同一個人。

我第一次有本鹹書在手，大慨是一年班。那本龍虎豹在姨丈床頭。我跟表姐一齊看、一齊笑。回家後，還興高彩烈的對爸媽分享我的歡樂！因為那些女孩身上有很多彩色的星星！
龍虎豹
好睇 好睇
但係又好鬼貴
顏色美麗
圖畫美麗
立體公仔
龍虎豹
好睇 好睇
但係又好鬼貴
顏色美麗
圖畫美麗
坐在廁所中
慢慢睇
--------
Happy Times。

屬於
幾年前，有一天，突然爸爸對我說：『現在的人真無知。』（他每每有時候都會在未有解釋前拋出一些結論。）
事源他聽到電台的主持介紹『歡樂今宵』這首歌時，說到『古巨基的歡樂今宵』。爸爸感到，這個世界每一首歌都是屬於作者的。除非歡樂今宵是古巨基作曲 + 作詞，否則他只是演譯者。
當 London Symphony Orchestra 演出 Beethoven Symphony No.4，不論演出多漂亮，這首歌仍是貝先生的。無人會說成 London Symphony Orchestra Symphony No. 4。
又當我背出故人西辭黃鶴樓...時，這首『送孟浩然之廣陵』仍是李白的。
這個就是屬於。
所有被做出來的東西都是屬於作者的。

衰人
我這個衰人，利用了 The Bay 的 price error，只花 $299.99 便得到了喜歡很久的 Canon S3 IS。
在加拿大做生意實在不容易，因為有太多像我的衰人：會 refund，會 price match，會捉緊 price error。
但想想，它們定的價錢其實已把對待衰人的 cost 計算在內。
Price of one camera = Cost of camera + salary + rent + advertising + refund/price error + profit。
所以，其實我不是衰人。
--
他這個衰人，利用了 Calgary 屋價不斷上昇的現況，假扮把屋出讓。等到有 multiple offers 的時候，突然反口說不賣，說等到價再高一點才賣。
我可以想到很多理性的理由去証明他無錯、他亦不是衰人，但因為我是受害者，所以做不到。

其實，沒有永遠
就如林夕在『夕陽無限好』裡寫到：
這個剎那宇宙
拒絕永久
宇宙如事，世界如事，球星如事。
每次買球衣前，都要用幾年時間去『跟』這個球員和這支球隊，要接受他和它的一切，再估計他會否繼續留在球會。
因為沒有什麼比穿上轉了會的球星的球衣更尷尬。
以為
Iverson 會永遠是個 76er；（已轉了會）
Garnett 會永遠是隻 Timberwolve；（應該會被 trade 走）
Kidd 會永遠是條 Net； （離婚後可能會轉會）
Jordan 會永遠是頭 Bull。
怎知。
其實，早知，沒有永遠。
(你叫我點算？）

失掉智慧 VII
這套戲今天到了最後一集，大結局。
我吃到最美味的燒鴨（雖然味度有少少鴨、少少燒肉、少少叉燒）；
我吃到最美味的辛辣麵；
我吃到蒸蛋、Timbits。
我仍吃不到硬的（granola bar），脆的（薯片），軟的（冬菇），和癡牙的（糖）。
但由今天開始，我不再肚餓了！
---
我決心不要忘記肚餓的感覺。
震憾。

Daily Engrish
一向大家都會拿日本人的 Engrish 來作笑話。只要 Google 一下，會提供不少笑話。
華人就沒太多 Engrish 事件。（也不是 Chingrish，因為這是文化問題，跟文族發音無關。）眼見最嚴重的發音問題，是 Free-Sree。
廣東人（香港人）會光明正大的打出 wif (I went there wif Mary.)，講出 free (Can you give me free burgers?)。
國語人就會講 wis 和 sree。
印度人就講 wit 和 tree。
其實我都花了幾年才能明白 f = ph，但 th 就兩個都不是。
（金0既金。）

失掉智慧 IV
My senses are coming back to me now. I can use my tongue to mush food against the top of my hard palate. Means now I can "eat" soft carrots, yams, tofu, and ice-cream.
Since I'm getting more sensible and I got tons of time on my side, I've done lots of thinking.
1) 原來吞口水是這麼困難的。
2) 原來肚餓的感覺是這樣辛苦的。
3) 原來電視廣告是充滿美食的。
4) 原來人是會在捱餓時夢見 McD 薯條的。
5) 我屋主實在對我太好了。

Out of everything, it's hunger that strikes me the most.
Is it a coincidence that prior to my oral surgery I've finished Angela's Ashes and The Pianist?
I never paid hunger/famine any thoughts. "OK you were hungry, but you didn't die, right? OK you're hungry, but I can't do anything. OK you're hungry, like millions of others, I can't save everybody."
But now, I'm suffering. I can feel it. Every second my body tells me I need to eat. I need proteins, vegetables, carbs, I need to survive. I can smell real food. I can't eat any. My stomach growls loud. At this moment, I would give anything to have a full meal.
What does this experience mean to me? Why now?
What should I do next?
(Who asked you to remind me? Smart ass.)

失掉智慧 III
Today is Day III.
As I'm getting hungrier by the hour, I'm also getting more agitated by the minute.
Since I can only drink liquids and drink (not eat) 粥, I feel very hungry.
Since I am hungry, my brain doesn't work well.
Since my brain doesn't function, there's nothing I can do.
Since I can't do anything, I feel bored and stupid.
99% of my body is well, but I can't do anything.
All day, I sit around staring at the TV, or watch DVDs, or sleep.
ARGH!

失掉智慧 II
Today is Day II.
I followed the doctor's orders, the nurses' advice, my co-workers' suggestions, everything. And they all worked!
No (or very very minor) swelling on my face,
very little pain,
the bleeding stopped very quickly,
I'm happy.

失掉智慧
Have always bragged about the fact of the existence of my full set of wisdom teeth.
Brag no more.
My dentist determined my lower one was causing an infection, and all four teeth are pushing forward, thus pushing my front teeth outward. Unnoticeable now, but in 20 years I'll be an old 西瓜刨.
So, all four teeth are shattered and taken out today.
1st: Tylenol 3
2nd: 8-10 small, localized anesthetic shots
3rd: A lot of drilling, cutting, pulling, and more drilling
4th: On the way home, entire face from the eyes down was numb. Non-stop 流口水. Of course, there was lots of blood seeping through.
5th: Can't move mouth = can't swallow saliva, can't drink, can't talk, stupid.
Today is only the first day; the worst has yet to come.
I thank God for the smooth procedure, the non-existent swelling, the very minor pain issue, my landlady who prepared tasty 粥 specially for me, Elaine for driving me around, just everything.

Looking back, what was there to brag about?
Just stupid.

錢錢錢錢，錢錢錢
農夫話：
女人最忌無品
男人最忌無銀
所以幾百張心意卡比唔上白金既附屬卡
楊千嬅唱：
我們還有手仍能拖，夢仍能造，眼仍能看，心仍能開
我們還有嘴仍能親，事仍能做，戲仍能看，歌仍能聽
錢雖少 有溫柔
她們說：
徐子淇幾生修到
媽媽教：
千萬不要找個貪錢的女人
你卻千萬要努力賺錢
女人最忌無品
男人最忌無銀
