  • Don’t Mess With The Zohan!

    I just watched this really stupid movie. Typical Adam Sandler’s movie: silly, insensitive, and very funny. This is my fav scene of the movie. Why? 🙂 Phelps!! Go Phelps!

  • 武侠去江湖shopping

    这一次到中国工作,本来感觉跟以前差不多。心理上已经准备好。谁不知天天永不言休的奥运转播,使我的头两个礼拜过得特别有意义。不用多说,光看我最近的博客日志生产量就知道了。 但是有点意想不到的是有另外一样东西帮助了我跟上海的磨合期。 武林外传 简单说,这个是中国的卡拉屋企。背景是一个旅馆,同福客栈,和里面掌柜书生服务员大厨假郭大侠后继女侠本来是盗神只会葵花(inspired by葵花宝典)点穴的武侠和二打六捕快的点滴。开场白: 好久不见,你去哪啦? 江湖。 江湖在什么地方? 我指给你看…. 宁财神是编剧。apparently他很有名。而且我很喜欢他很不做作地把武林跟现代结合起来。比如说,吕秀才,那个书生服务员,永远都有一些现代朋友。“先生,您的名字?” “My name is simpson. Simpson.” “先生…” “not 先生,simpson。” 而且他常常爱用广东人,用香港人的口音来代表外地人(自己读成唧唧),什么都不懂但很先进的外地人。 another example: “我点了他50%的穴,不应该会这样的” one more: 穿踢死兔带香港口音的男人说“啊,这里的月亮是多角形的。” ok ok …. 没看过的是很难明白的… 闫妮饰的佟湘玉和范明饰的邢捕头是我的最爱。佟掌柜的口音和机智太可爱(造型也很可爱!:P),邢捕头的怕是扮牛也是乐死我。而且他们都演的很好,特别是范明。 还有,这个剧总共有80多集,而且大结局是在年三十晚,网上还有春晚跟武林外传结局会不会在同一时间放的讨论,因为有很多人都觉得武林外传有可能会把春晚打下去! 而且这个剧的开幕/结尾歌都是rap的。hee hee。肯定以后再听到这两首歌就会想起这几个礼拜在这个小房子度过的日子…

  • 柔王丸

    When I was young, I had most of the robot toys … 金剛戰神,六神合體,超時空要塞,a few transformers, 高迪安… but I loved none as much as 柔王丸. I liked it so much that I used to draw it all the time. I liked it because it was a personal small fist size robot that would go out and…

  • 5 months

    Tibetan Sand Fox (Vulpes ferrilata) hmm. I haven’t written in ages. That’s partly because I didn’t have the motivation to write, and partly because I wasn’t able to connect to blogger.com while I was in China. When I first worked in Beijing back in 2002, I used to write often. I started blogging because my…

  • 2 weeks

    I took 6 days off and had a 12 days vacation in xinjiang. It was sensational: Gorgeous landscape, horses, lambs, tasty lamb, raisins, 100 kinds of raisins. best of all, I didn’t have to worry about work at all. No cell phone no meetings no arguement no explaining strategies objectives no expressing povs no nothing.…

  • N4e6, says He.

    You know, I kinda have to write something about my departure. It is hard to find topics to babble about you know. I can’t reveal my inner self to the world like other bloggers. So I have to find some topics. Hence, I am going to devote this blog to Beijing, and the people from…
