歷史家話, 項羽英雄蓋世, 只因一時面子問題, 自刎烏江; 而劉邦一介莽夫, 卻又做就了中國歷史上其中一個最強大的朝代.
點解咁講 ? 無線套新劇宣傳成日只見秋官自言自語, 但另一主角項羽係邊個演都唔知, 後來先見到是江華, 得到的對待就似是完全無這個角色一樣.
難道有人又是面子問題被人封殺 ?

九份車禍
2004.10.20 :: 星期三
聽到呢個新聞我都覺得好唔舒服, 五條性命就白白死在一個瘋狂的醉漢身上. 無論世上何處, 醉駕都往往是車禍的重要原因, 做一個司機關係著不止在你的乘客, 周圍左右的駕駛者也會被你拖累 !
死者已已, 不過早上聽到陶傑評論這單車禍心裡也不甚舒服. 陶先生有意無意間將責任推成為香港人去旅遊只為豪華享受坐旅遊巴而忽略了去旅遊其實最重要是用兩隻腳. 無錯, 我絕對同意他所講多用腳, 少坐巴士一會, 更同意去旅遊應該為享受外地的名勝風景而非導遊的無聊笑話. 不過陶先生忘記了參加旅行團並不代表懶得走, 可能其實當中有行動不便的老人家, 又或者家族旅遊方便安排呢 ? 其實旅行團亦只是各取所需, 好像我這種人要再參加旅行團就絕不可能一樣而已.
不過, 其實香港人亦好應反醒, 鬥平鬥賤是否真是可以皆大歡喜呢 ? 我絕對相信一千元左右的旅行團, 住三四晚酒店加機票, 那麼別人吃甚麼 ? compromise 必會有 , 但究竟 compromise 到哪個點才會出事呢 ? 哪會有人知道. 我以前參加過一個地中海旅行團, 貴別社數千元, 結果發覺, 貴的, 真是有貴的道理, 起碼導遊的專業, 當機立斷, 以致出事 (一些取消了的船期而已) 後的安排, 都令人喜出望外. 我又見識過別社的旅行團, 對, 是平, 但帶你走盡 "購物熱點", 反而應去的景點卻只留半小時, 去完後印象全無, 哪又有用呢 ?

The Day after Tomorrow
2004.10.07 :: 星期四
Just bought this DVD and watched. The movie was a shocker when I first watched in the theatres. Yes, the story is too lame and special effects are just OK, but no doubt the movie is one of its kind and created some thoughts for me. As witnessed by recent weather disruptions such as irregular typhoon season in the Asia Pacific area, hotter and hotter climate, it is very striking to watch the scenes in the movie that they seem to be actually HAPPENING in the real world. Scary.
The bonus Disc is a real plus, I really watched the one-hour long "The Science of Tomorrow: The Science and Politics of Climate Change". It is closely related to the movie and provided the background of the movie. Though some of the presenters did not agree with the view points and dramatic exaggerations of the movie, the underlying problem of the world is the excessive use of fossil fuel energy and the political reasoning to block or interfere any migration to cleaner energy generation.
Yes, it's hard to imagine US being the largest single country to consume fossile fuel energy, at 25% of the world's production. Thanks to its extensive network of highways which discourages the use of public transportation like railways and buses. Most developed areas like Europe and Japan have extensive network of railways and the use of buses are popular. Public transports are environmentally friendly and good for travellers, I always wonder why they would not be pushed in the US. Privacy? Convenience? Maybe the lifestyle being adopted for long would not be easily changed. I think the raising of gas prices these days could ring the bell and encourage US people to think twice about driving.
Yes, to be honest, I myself am not a huge fan of green life, because something got used to is not easily given up. But I think everyone can do a bit of his or her own to protect our own home, like use less electricity, try to walk, or at least take public transports, recycle anything you can. Talk to your legislators, create a pressure to the government that we wish for something more on environment protection policies. It's really hard to imagine if the movie goes real.

狗狗店

今日行銅鑼灣, 見到紐約戲院旁有一幢舊樓裝修得好靚, 應該係一間寵物超市, 睇落幾有睇頭. 香港 (尤其是港島) 絕對欠缺呢類店子. 如果有貓貓就更好了.
燒烤<慶>中秋

(閱讀全文)在新的 Creative Muvo2 FM 取出 5 GB drive
2004.09.27 :: 星期一
今日讀到這篇報告, 原來新的 5 GB Muvo2 都可以取出個 drive 用, 就好似之前的 4GB 版本一樣.
現在影相開始多用 raw, 非常得心應手, 都想找個大 drive 玩玩, 但睇到日本人的報告, Konica Minolta A2 打了個大交叉, 殘念 !!
不過最大問題係 A2 的發熱問題, 用 CF 影半個小時左右就熱到死, 加埋個 harddisk 落去咪仲火熱動感 ?
算把啦, 都係買 CF 啦.
鋁窗意外
2004.09.22 :: 星期三
今日有人上黎 check 窗, 係太古城的管理公司強制要各業主做的, 因為o係最近幾個月已經有十幾宗鋁窗飛街的意外, 幸好一宗都無傷及人命. 以這裡二十年樓齡大廈來講, 這些損耗是少不免的. 管理公司的行動亦值得一讚, 貴貴的管理費亦是物有所值.
Check 完發覺廳中六道窗都要修理, 幸好又是一道也未飛出來, 也幸好我不是業主, 我不用花費 !! hahaha.
在香港四處都是高樓大廈, 真是要非常小心頭上開花呢. 不過, 總有些狂徒在樓上丟物落街, 防不勝防.
