疯癫在大洋彼岸

我没钱，但系我有时间。

我愿意用时间买金钱。

关你屁事。

一个地方住久了，必然开始积累杂物垃圾。外婆也不例外，住了十几年的小屋是里里外外堆满了东西，加上老年人特有的怀旧心理作祟，更是保留了大批古灵精怪匪夷所思的物件。东西都像在原地扎了根似的，一放就是月月年年。别人也帮她收拾不得，似乎碰碰就会动了攒下的灵气，坏了脉数。

一日拜访，瞄见两尺见方的桌子上摆着五六个纸筒。厕所卷纸内芯来着。问，老太婆，这玩意儿留着干啥子用嘞？答，可以用来做笔筒呀。一时笑倒。

09年初,在洛杉矶降生了一个试管八胞胎.在医护人员的精心照料之下,八个孩子全部安然无恙.这本来是皆大欢喜的喜事,然而事情发生了180度的变化,人们惊奇地发现孩子们的母亲居然是个无职业无收入还要靠救济过活的单身女子,并且家里已经有六个孩子.人们的谴责声一下子就盖过了赞美和祝福.

毫无疑问,除非有什么广告经纪公司找他们代言产品, 这八个孩子肯定是要靠纳税人的钱过活了.鉴于母亲的背景,人们不禁怀疑她坚持生下八个孩子的初衷.要知道,从医学上考虑,一胎生八个孩子无论对母亲还是胎儿的健康都是极为不利的.当初在怀孕之时,医生就提出选择性堕胎,以保证胎儿的健康. 可是这个理性的建议却被这位母亲坚决拒绝了.她说绝不放弃自己的孩子.在后来的采访中她说到,她一向很期待一个儿女满堂的大家庭的气氛.当然,她也如愿以偿了,而且是加倍地实现了.早在八胞胎之前,她就已经通过试管方式生了六个孩子,并且这六个孩子全都是靠政府资助和他们的祖父母微薄的退休金生活.八个新生儿对这个不堪一击的家庭来说无疑是雪上加霜.不管这位母亲在捍卫她自己的母爱时是如何的理直气壮,在现实面前,她的理由却是那么苍白.她难道没有考虑孩子的利益么?母亲不仅管生,也要管养呀.

不出意外,慈善机构和救济承担了孩子们的赡养费,还给这个巨大的家庭换了房子,配了护士.可不过多久,这个母亲就惹上了官司.提供护士服务的慈善组织状告这位母亲完全无视孩子的利益,疏于照顾.看来这位母亲的最初动机还真不是那么简单呢.终归道德和法律之间的差距,让这个不知廉耻的女人逃过制裁.

六个月后再看报纸,”英雄母亲”时髦装束现身,据说已经有媒体跟八胞胎签了份合计一百多万的合约,要拍摄宝宝成长记来着.

真可惜,又让这女人的奸计得逞了.

Criminals in United States are likely enjoying the most superior privileges around the world. They are provided with not only free meals and health care, but also the RIGHT of not working. The humanistic law in the United States gives them such a right that no one can be forced to work if against their wishes. This may be fair to those prisoners, yet it also sounds completely ridiculous to me as I though the right of the majority taxpayer is violated.

First of all, when these people commit crimes, 9 out of 10 they had damaged civil properties in some way. Maybe you will argue this wasn’t true if they were hurting only people, still utilities and resources such as medication and therapy must be paid to eliminate those harmful effects. In either way, loss is incurred. Secondly, in order to seize the criminal, policy and other law enforcement agencies are employed. The money that keep these agencies operated comes from nowhere but our own pockets. Thirdly, when a criminal goes through a trial, more people and resources are involved. Lawyers, juries, and even those paper works mean no others but more money. In a word, they induced tremendous cost to all the tax payers by committing crimes.

Now they are put into prisons, where they supposed to redeem their sins, yet they are not only bringing the society no positive value at all but costing more to feed them and keep them alive and SAFT! The cost of incarceration a prisoner is estimated to be $65.41 per day, much more than my regular daily expense. What the hell is going on here? According to some reports, the fee of maintaining those prisons actually comes from the same funding pool that funds the state universities. Worse than that, it even has a higher priority than funding the education. This partially explains why State University of California is experiencing such a catastrophe in the budget cut, and it also explains why I’m so piss off here expressing my disagree to the way prisons operate. Yes, it sounds scary if prisoners are not well kept and monitored. However, one should never forget that those undereducated youths are more likely to commit crimes as they are driven by economic and social pressure. Cutting educational funding is certainly something inadvisable to do.

They should at least work, as what their Chinese counterparts do. They should at least produce something worth the value of what they damage and cost. They redeem their sins by working their ways out, not by depriving other people’s way of making their lives. One of my friends suggests we should design some sorts of exercising machines that can translate physical energy into electricity, so those prisoners can become a massive group of workers. In the thread of global warming and energy crisis, this is no doubt a potentially idea.

San Francisco mayor Newsom’s father has changed his mind. A former judge at the state Court of Appeal and a devout Catholic, Mr. Newsom came a long way in accepting homosexual people. As people asked how he made it, a personal connection with homosexual community made a call.

My dad is like that too. He just doesn’t have a chance to make that personal connection, but he is not a homophobe.

The Pope is.

A research shows that homophobic people are usually facing self denial of their sexuality. They could not accept the fact that they are actually turned on by homosexual act. If this is valid, isn’t the Pope potentially a gay man?

To those homophobes on my Facebook, please stop making personal attacks and stupid analogies. If you find me making no senses here, so did you.

各位，实在是不好意思。说实在的，这假期太懒惰，好像永远都睡不够的。脸上的皮肤太差，人也不想多见。逛街吃饭又没钱。如果您因为我爽了约又或者推了约又或者在这普天同庆的大节日里根本没联系感觉不爽的话，大人请多多包涵，来年再会。

Ian老大说他吃素的伙计在感恩节给他弄了个豆腐蔬菜面粉做的火鸡，五官四肢俱全。忽的纳闷，你既然不吃肉，何必把蔬菜弄成肉样呢？

一同窗荷兰小弟做了一个解构意味颇浓的project, 以Cal Poly second year的level来说, 有那么点惊世骇俗的味道。某日某five year student来访，慧眼相中此作，赞赏有嘉，私下闲聊间忽出一语，“这东西挺Frank Gehry的。”瞬时觉得，此言有点degrade了Deon（荷兰小弟名字）了吧......

A boy in my year is working on a project, a brilliant one in comparing with the rest of the second year projects in Cal poly. A five year student came to visit. This project delighted him a lot, for the concept of deconstruction (where deformation is the word more appropriate i think). In a later conversation, he said the project looked very much like Frank Gehry. He might mean to be praising the boy, yet I felt it was degrading the work of Deon .

Of course this sounds a little bit funny, but the reason I’m saying this is the fact that I’m pretty sure Deon would rather be Deon the first than Frank Gehry the second. Also, despite of the many big names in our era, from a moral perspective, I think every designer and every young architect should be given equal opportunities in presenting their own works. Their names are remembered by the public not because they resemble to any of the work that are previously attractive to us. In fact, if we appreciate them only by their appeared resemblance, we ignore the effort they had put into, as well as the process they had gone though, which for sure are very much different from the ones we saw before.
