完了,老了,我正在看今年的春节联欢晚会录像,发现我现在竟然不介意观看“假音”歌唱和传统戏剧,这在五年前可是不可思议的呀。如今不但不介意,而且能选择性地欣赏。
为什么呢?是不是因为太多类似American Idol的节目老放烂人唱的烂歌,而让我更能懂得分辨好坏?

《新上海滩》的主题曲目前我百听不厌,虽遭某某人严重鄙视为老土,但还就是喜欢。我也听过广东话的旧版,但总觉得普通话版的更含有韵味、气势、与苍伤。
土?五星照赏!只是欣赏的时候得偷偷摸摸地。
Landscape
I have always wanted to take great landscape photos. Unfortunately pretty much all my landscape photos suck. I see one obstacle between me and landscape awesomeness: my sleeping schedule. Every photography book out there says the best times to take landscape pictures are at dawn and dusk. Well, I go to sleep right before dawn, and I am normally at home at dusk.
Macro
Most of the pictures I took with my new Nikon D80 are macro shots. The Nikkor 18-200 VR lens is great for close-ups, except when it doesn’t get close enough to the photo subjects. What I need is a dedicated macro lens, but they are so darn expensive!
茫…然…啊…
First of all, let me have the chance to gloat a bit: I have two 20-inch LCD monitors at work.
Now that’s over with, I must confess that I don’t really like the setup much.
The first thing I dislike is each monitor’s native 1600×1200 resolution. That resolution is just too darn high! I have to deal with smaller font sizes that many applications dish out, and I am not able to use the programming fonts (ProFont and ProggyCleanTT) I’d like - they don’t scale well to larger font sizes. A colleague of mine has two 19 inch LCDs with lower native resolutions. I like those better instead.
In addition I am not very convinced that two monitors would make me more productive, contrary to this article’s conclusion. Most of the time I have my work apps open on one monitor, leaving the other one to display non-essential stuff (*cough* Firefox *cough*). Even then I still get confused when I Alt-Tab between different programs. Also my eyes are often tired from having two 20-inch of “light bulb” shine in my face all day.
今天我温习了一些老照片,里面有我父母二十多岁时和我婴儿时的留影。没办法啊,看着看着我又想无病呻吟了,感觉那段日子真的很遥远。
大家都曾年轻过,我想二十年以后我以老头子的眼光再看这些照片时又会有什么感想。我猜那时我可能真的是“有病呻吟”了
曾几何时我也成了叔叔。
