标题:US Open Classy 字体 [ ] 颜色[绿 ]

看昨天的US Open Tennis了吗,Agassi vs Baghdatis? 一边是36岁即将退役哼哧哼哧的老匹夫,一边是21岁的有伤抽筋在场上疼得乱跳的毛小子.近4个小时的狗咬狗的酣战,谁都不放弃直到最后一球.

赛后Agassi指着观众说:You made me believe the faith in human spirit... Yeah, indeed. But I think the show they just put up there on the stage just reaffirmed the exact same belief to thousands if not millions of people who watched that game.

Last time saw something so dramatic & touching on a tennis court was years ago when Pete cried, like a baby, during a game in a major over his just-lost beloved coach.

Andre, you will be missed on the tennis court !

Had a barbecue beef hamburger for lunch. They had this new guy working so hard in front of the grill, & oh poor boy, you call that piece of dry tasteless rubber a meal, I'd rather call it an artwork. (exaggerating)
 
It reminds me of this documentary series called American Eats launched in the History Channel, about the 'history's of American popular foods/snacks. There was this episode about barbecue, quite interesting and informative.
 
What are the four places historically known for making good BBQs? ---- Texas, Kansas City, Carolinas, and Memphis... Texas's bbq emerged right after the civil war ended when the cow industry boomed in Texas. So their bbq features beef, cooked in a smoke chamber, eaten with bread or even crackers, + really hot sauces ---- the Taxas way, or the Cowboy bbq. Kansas City's on the other hand use both beef and pork and virtually any part edible, and cooking was done with oak wood fire. Kansas City also has the very popular bbq sauce Masterpiece originally 'invented' by a doctor, who, I donot know how good a dotor he was, loved bbq really badly -- that you can tell for sure. Carolinas like using ribs for their bbq parties, while Memphis like steak better(? if I remember correctly)... They all have different tastes and flavors.
 
Who invented the charcoal beads? I was rather surprised to know that it was Henry Ford. Yeah, the same Ford who started the Ford automobile business. Actually the popular KingsFord charcoal briquettes in the market today was named after him and one of his far relative and of course his bbq buddy as well. The whole idea that he had was that you donot have to bbq at home only, with a bag of charcoal briquettes and a compact grill packed in the trunk of your Ford, you can enjoy it anywhere you want.----wasn't he a smart a$$ or what?
 
The easies and most effective way to check if the temperature on your grill is good or not? Put you palm right on top of the grill, if you can stay there for 5+ sec, the heat is low; 3~4 sec, medium; 1~2 sec, high. If you want to cook some good bbqs, this is something you got to remember, coz although all the bbqs from the four places have many different features, they all share one same big cooking secret---slow, slow, and more slow cooking.
 
Ever stop by one of these places in future, don't forget to try their bbqs... They really look darn nice and inviting on TV, freshing, tender & juicy... I watched the program calm and cool, but my mouth just could not keep itself from watering and watering...
 
Back to reality, for now, my stomach is complaining to me loudly, "I dont work on rubbers"... I hear you buddy, I hear you.

(old notes on movie Brokeback Mountain)

Finally got to watch the Brokeback Mountain today a pretty good one.

回来在想,其实这片子的妙处不在于主题,并没有什么新东西在里面。但李安能大师出细工,巧妙地把恬静秀美的自然风光、悠扬的乐声 blend into these two guys' love. 其实它迎合唤醒的是人们对唯美的追求和向往——有好几次,我似乎忘记了是在看一个讲同性恋的故事。

片里有几首歌挺不错的,尤其是片尾的 He was a friend of mine——吉他悠扬,倾诉哀肠。

(sorry, lyric first. wait until I figure out how to put my audio file on this page.)

He was a friend of mine
He was a friend of mine
Every time I think about him now
Lord I just can't keep from cryin'
'Cause he was a friend of mine

He died on the road
He died on the road
Just kept on moving
Never reach what he could so
And he was a friend of mine

I stole away and cried
I stole away and cried
'Cause I never had too much money
And I never been quite satisfied
And he was a friend of mine

He never done no wrong
He never done no wrong
A thousand miles from home
And he never harmed no one
And he was a friend of mine

He was a friend of mine
He was a friend of mine
Every time I hear his name
Lord I just can't keep from cryin'
'Cause he was a friend of mine

 
标题:开车,就得开“好”车! 字体 [ ] 颜色[绿 ]
分类:随笔小记 创建于:2006-08-02 被查看:6785次 文件夹:默认文件夹 回复(2)  [回复]

前不久有空儿回了趟国,变化真是不少,当然正面的进步的是大多数。但今天聊聊一处不亮丽的——怎么那么多司机就开不好车呢?

从机场大厅出来去停车场的短短一二十米的路上,一直到回去的头几天里,一直被路上开车人的“粗旷”给“震撼”着。回想起在美时朋友好心的忠告:回国千万别开车。于是老老实实地骑车坐公共车打车搭车地过了一个星期。终究不爽,便忍不住还是弄了辆车亲自出马上了路。于是有了下面的亲身体验,记下来和大家交流一下北京的交通和开车中的一些“怪”现象:

对于红灯时可以右转的误解!——右转弯儿==不用理睬红灯。很多次,看到红灯对于右转弯儿的车形同虚设。一次我自己停在红灯前,等着右转。坐在后面的朋友急了,大声提醒我,咱们右转咱们右转。似乎已成为一种公理:即便是面前有行人正在穿过人行横道,即便是左手边直行的车正在经过路口,咱右转,咱不受管。

喜欢闪高灯!——尤其是在晚上,时不时地你会发现,路上总有车不时的“星星点点”的闪。高灯似乎被视为一种重要的公路通讯手段。我的一个朋友在一次聊天讨论路上种种的“不良行为”时竟煞有道理地“谴责”:你看路上有些懂的司机,看到大灯就知道让你了,不懂的还是堵着你。什么时候或许中国真该把闪高灯是示意让你让路或其它什么意图的条款写进交规里去了。

车不让人!——最突出的例子,是转弯儿的车不让斑马线上绿灯下过街的行人,摁着喇叭示威着闯出条路就冲过去了。奇怪的是行人总是怯怯地让车。美国交通的基本理念是弱势个体总有路权、该被照顾,强势不让弱势,是很不礼貌的offense;中国的现实似乎则是去你妈的、开车的是大爷。刚回去第二天,一次挤在人群里过马路,看见一辆车又气势汹汹地冲过来。我那一刻可能是被愤怒冲昏了头脑了,伸出脚去踹在车头上。后来有朋友告诉我,你可得夹着尾巴些,现在国内有人花几万块钱,就能雇人灭了你。听得我后怕。幸好我“一时不冷静”发威时碰到的是个“善人”,要不今天就没人来告诉你们这些有意思的故事了。

喇叭声声!——不知各位怎样,在DC metro area,我的车上的喇叭,非常不保守的估计,一个月也派不上一两次用场。一年十次?顶天了。在北京,尤其是在一些拥挤的路段、路口,用不了五分钟,你就有可能摁十几二十次,一点儿也不夸张。反正是车不让车、车不让人、人不让车的,不摁有时还真不行。

别对路人客气,免得自找麻烦!——在美国,如果你在STOP sign 前没注意到行人有点儿抢行,或是在其它一些对路人有些“冒犯”的情形下,挥挥手表示一下歉意,甚至说声抱歉都是非常自然的事情。一次类似的情形,我的车离一个骑车人挺近,我挥手示意一下歉意,坐在身边的朋友立马儿拿我开了训:你要想少麻烦,以后千万别再干这种“傻事”了。

在高速收费站碰头!——有车的渐渐多了,于是也就有了各色的汽车远游俱乐部。怎么集合呢?高速收费站,特别是周末的刚出城区的收费站,时不时看到几辆车停在收费站前,有时甚至可以看见两三拨的人在那儿盘踞。下来转悠的乘客们洋洋彩彩的说笑,一两个大拿则在手机上,估计是联络还没跟队伍碰头的车友们。

……。还有别的,以后想起来再补上。(当然需要说明一下,上面说的这些事儿,有些是普遍现象,有些只是个别特例;有些100%是司机的错,有些行人也有不对的地方。)

记下这些事儿,不是想发牢骚挑毛病,给咱自己国家脸上抹黑,给老美脸上贴金。咱伟大祖国的欣欣向荣百废俱兴的红火还是今天的主旋律(虽然有些乱、有些浮——这个以后有机会再细说)。但这些不和谐的东西让人看了、经历了还是挺不舒服的。当然写这些更不是想标榜我是个好司机。事实上,在路上良民了一个星期后,我就基本上一点点地被“北京司机化”了:摁喇叭多了,对其它车,对路人;宁抢一秒,不停三分;打大灯……——回乡随俗的一个负面典型吧。

记下这些事儿,一来给大家打个预防针,回去要是开车,要有点儿心理准备、做些mental adjustment。还有最好别象我一样也跟着学坏了;二来,有机会跟你们在国内的哥们儿姐们儿的聊天儿时,咱也做回老师,给他们讲讲这些道理,熏陶一下那帮丫的。能听进去最好,听不进去也得让他们知道有这么一档子事儿。真没准儿有一两个改邪归正了,那咱也就大功告成了。

车是人废了劲儿发明出来伺候人用的,再怎么着也比人贱了去了吧,无论如何还是该“以人为本”吧(那个大官儿好象已经说过这话了?)。所以不管在哪,要想真正开车爽,咱都悠着点儿,什么时候都别忘了首先得要尊重呵护好人——自己、车上的乘客、别的司机、还有路人。

开车,真就得开好喽!

 
标题:(sports) what ifs 字体 [ ] 颜色[绿 ]

Had an interesting and ‘heated’ discussion with my soccer buddies yesterday. During game break, this ‘extremist’ guy claims that he does not root for any baseball team or actually any professional sport team. The reason?----Not a single professional athlete deserves the money that they are making now and fans are the reason for this craziness… I have to say he does have a good point and to certain extent I do agree with me. I also believe that sports, perhaps art and filming as well, should not by any means be operated as a business in a healthy world… What if none of us buy any ticket to watch the games, or pay stupid money for any franchise merchandise? He asked.

You are right indeed, bro, there are too many what ifs that can not stand a second thought… What if every fan, while admiring the sports/movie stars, can first believe that I am no worse, if not any better, than he/she is as a person…Or what if everyone can ignore the temptation of curiosity and does not care about all the flying gossips and so called ‘big news’ in the media?... Or what if …

But we are not living in a perfect world, aren’t we? Therefore perhaps it is a little too much to expect everything happen on the basis of justified reasons and wise judgment, every time at every place. So we all compromise ourselves one way or another and find a comfortable zone between the perfection and the realistic.

The life would be freaking boring and everyone would be f***ing dead if that is the case, says another ‘extremist’ dude.

Haha, too bad the world can not hear and does not change a bit because of what we just said, does it? … OK now get your lazy a$$ up and let’s put up our own show for whatever it is for now, I said… We played on and continued our fun in the haziness----that was pretty cool!
