Six-word Fiction
I was looking for some info on Ursula LeGuin and found this article on Wired magazine: Very Short Stories 33 writers. 5 designers. 6-word science fiction. Feature: Very Short Stories Gallery Contributors We'll be brief: Hemingway once wrote a story in just six words ("For sale: baby shoes, never wor...
Tantalizing and frightening are precisely my impression. Meinv your writing is getting more brilliant every day. When will we be treated with your whole and original works, eh? Yes, we should get together next year... (I'm going to LA for the holidays between Christmas and New Year to visit my paren...

My suspicion is that Bali is a popular in back in Saigon and hence is adopted by various immigrants in US for their own use without regard to franchise or brand name, like Quan2 Ju4 De2. I doubt there is actually a chain. There are also shops in LA called Bali's. Pho number so-and-so is the same thi...
Which Bali's do you mean? I only know the one in Rockville, Maryland. Do you know what the tofu in the cups is all about? And all the red, yellow, pink, orange stuff that you order in line at the counter? Is it like Dou4 Fu Hua1? I was so lost. One of these days I should trek to Annandale to check o...
流口水:越南菜
自从离开洛山鸡以后老子就没吃过正宗好吃价廉物美的越南馆子,尤其是让我念念不忘的越南三明智。马里兰有一家牛肉粉馆子,经常热闹地没有停车位。还有一家"巴黎"bakery是唯一买得到三明智和越式咖啡的地方,味道还凑和但是量少又贵,很不过瘾。而其他在当地报纸年年上榜的都是些美国化的雅皮去处,装饰的现代精美,卖些照顾美国肠胃的淡出鸟的改良菜,太不正宗了,连烤猪肉都没有卖!住在宾州时费城城里有一两个比较正宗的小店,可是太远,去一次兴师动众,结果一年半里也没去几次。 昨天心血来潮,鼓起勇气去早就听说的一家越南豆腐店,在Virginia Seven Corners附近,据说是现做现卖的豆腐特产。为什么要鼓起勇...

Neither is particularly bloody, especially if you have seen Mel Gibson's display of sadomasochism in Passion of the Christ and the opening Apocalypto, or similarly sadistic Seven and other movies like it. In these movies, death and suffering are a means of entertainment by exploiting the viewer's pr...
Al Swearengen is easy to love. In a lot of ways he is an extension of Andy Sibowitz in NYPD Blue. However, Milch put the character on the ice at the beginning of Season 2 -- actually put him in serious vulnerability for a few episodes. He said in the commentary that it's easy to turn the series into...

[分享]偶像语录
在看Deadwood第二季,听到一句太精彩的对白,实在舍不得不拿上来分享: 这集里面镇上的报纸人(唯一的知识分子哈)被人报复砸了家什,十分丧气,说没心情再办下去 "I'm in despair"(敏感脆弱嘛)。主角Al Swearengen问:"你被人打过吗?"他说只有一次,去年闹瘟疫时他怕自己得了天花,被医生扇了个耳光。Al这时打了他一耳光,说了段极其精彩的话: Al: Are you dead? Merrick: No. I'm in pain but obviously not dead. Al: And you weren't dead when the doc slapped you...

Classmate Jun says: how can you tell who are the people good at it? Model mothers like DeBeers, Haoqing, and Helen are obviously good at it. And I'll settle for whoever are willing or forced to have kids... :mrgreen: Classmate Jun would say it is determined by genes. Maybe so. Which means that peopl...

借这个帖子问一声儿:对于曾经有过轻微脑梗塞的老人,什么样的保健品比较好?还有,对心血管有利的? I only know about drug treatment. For 轻微脑梗塞, other than close medical monitoring over time, check with the doctor about taking an aspirin tablet per day, 325 mg. For 对心血管有利, follow sensible dietary guidelines (low fat, whole grain, etc.), appropriate ...

Oh yes, the 8g about JFK RFK and the mob. :mrgreen: There was (far-fetched) speculation that JFK was assassinated because he didn't pay back the favors of the mob before he became President. Joseph Kennedy was not unfamiliar with the Irish mob either. None of these American "aristocrats" are clean, ...

But 贵族 is sooooooo boring, especially the European old blood. It used to be fun when royalties had power, fought wars, poisoned their children and relatives, and chopped each other's heads off. Now there's nothing but snooze. :sleeping: Even Helen Mirren cannot induce me to watch The Queen. The Brit...
近期读书报告
1. The Man Who Smiled (Henning Mankell) 我明白为什么Mankell这么对我的口味,他跟我一样对于钱多权重的大亨有种天生的distain and skepticism. 我也是。Dirty until proven clean。钱太多,势力太大的人,对我们这种人来说必是恶多善少。 这本书是瑞典小镇的探长Kurt Wallander探案系列里的第四部(总共目前有十部?),是老早写的,但从来没有出过英文版。倒是系列里后面的几部过去几年都出得七七八八了。那时候,里面的杀人情节还没有后来的那么血腥和暴力,但是一样牵扯到跨国犯罪网络的背景。 小说里面的主要恶人是个露...
