Mother, the Korean Movie

I am watching this tonight. Saw it on the shelf of Laser Flair, did some work on the web, decided to purchase. I kinda wish the cinematography is as good as the told story. You should watch with me. I will be writing a review, in Chinese off course, later. See ya!

Oh, almost forget to mention, it is rated M18 in Singapore. You know lah, Singapore MDA rating.

笑谈孔夫子

只要你的身体留有点滴华人的血，就应该认识孔子。不认识他的学说，也应该认识他本人。不然你可能需要去验一下血，看一看它到底是什么颜色。说不定它和蜻蛙 一样，是蓝色的。

认识的孔子应该知道，他有个英（文）名叫Johnny。不过仲尼一点西洋水也没喝过，就有如戏里扮演他的周润发一样。正 所谓英雄不问出身。

除了英文名外，有句非常的话，也是出自孔子之口，那就是“以女子和小人为难养也“。这句话轻视了女人几千年，却成为了 让人们更认识孔子的话。

其实这部戏的主角，除了让周润发来演，真的再也找不到更适合的人了。大家惴磨一下为什么。

非常欣 赏制作人没有采用电脑特技来美化这部戏，戏里的山水，美不可言。比起欧洲的华丽山水，戏里中国的山水多了一种肃穆，沧桑的感觉。这应该居功于选择场景的 人。单看戏里的山水，就值回票价了。

这部戏有个体贴的地方，凡第一次出场的历史人物，都会有一段小字幕，介绍该人物。让观众不必废心思去 猜度，可以专心观赏电影。不过我本人还是认为，即使有字幕介绍，在新加坡还是会有多数人看了也不知道。非常的可惜。

周迅可算是生错了时 代，在这“唯女子与小人为难养也“的春秋战国时期。她前前后后出场不到十五分钟，充分的显出了当时的封建制度。女人，只不过是花瓶。不过，因为她出场时间 的长短是所有女角色之冠，女主角之誉，当之无愧。呵呵。不过老实说，我也是看完戏后，才了解春秋战国时期原来是这么开放的。戏中南子不但企图色诱孔子，整 场戏露颈露肩，大腿手臂也毫不客气的露出来，害我差点以为这是部黄晶的戏。

整体来说，这部戏制作严谨，演员认真，故事有序，场内外景的选 择都到家，唯独写实面不足。这是一部好电影，值四颗星。

Spiritual food increases throughout ages

Religion & Ethics News Weekly has this very interesting piece which says food served to Jesus and disciples increase over time. Duh! What do you know, Jesus is real after all.

" Two scholars compared artistic depictions of the Last Supper and found that the portions served to Jesus and the apostles became larger and larger over time."

This will be how I teach my children Pi

This is a 4 year old song, but I enjoy it so much.

What happen when we get older

Everyone gets younger once in a while. For me, I have to stay young most of the time. Literally. I mean, I try to be serious and all, and behave like an adult. But man, how can I?

Despite of all those unforgiving white hairs that start to crawl on my temple, my companions refuse to let me grow old.

We scribble on empty paper together, pretending to draw a better world, while trying to guess what the others try to express. We laugh at that ugly monster, we love it, and then we frame it up. It becomes the painting of the house, for that week.

There is no time for tiring affairs, as if we fear that the whole world would be gone in split seconds. Why would we waste time on other love when you know you already own it all.

They always are news of the day, there for you to immerse yourself into a kind of love that you wouldn't want to call it quit. And you know, no others can come between.

How to know such love exist, and last forever? When you wouldn't want another, and you wouldn't want to exchange it even for heaven.

It becomes so sad when you come to think about there is still so much to give, and wanted to give again. Every year we were refresh, knowing that there is another year to give. We ask to let us give, we want to.

You have only one family in a life time. Like life, there is no turning back. Make it count and worthwhile. We pray for your well being. Godspeed, for hope, for you all.

夜观，十月围城

我不是很喜欢鲁迅，但喜欢他的文学集。尤其是那篇“这样的战士”，不可言欲的悲呛，不能胜而又不得不面对的局，要用几滴墨才能点得清楚。我时时在想，如果鲁迅生在此时，又是一位影评，不知他会对现在的第八艺术作出什么评论。

我有时爱用直觉去衡量一部电影的好坏。我不否认，“十月围城”听起来颇有韵味，之中让人期待有兵豪马壯之景，千刀万剑交叉之声。我相当喜欢这样的剧名，命名者有艺术家的文思，能触动爱电影者的遐想。不错。

英文名“Bodyguards And Assassins"却马马虎虎。让人觉得不爽，好像是找不到好名，随便便阿猫阿狗的凑上了。敢情是觉得这部戏，反正洋人也看不懂。也不用多废唇舌，对牛谈琴。

不知道是不是有意，编剧好像故意舍孙中山这个名，戏里由始至终，竟只有孙文。哈！中山没了，变成了文皱皱的孙文，好像有点含沙射影。那为什么不用孙逸仙呢？我可觉得这是个更好的选择。

十月围城算是部相当严肃的戏吧？可是为什么当我看见满脸胡子的黎明，躺在那里，木然的掉下泪时，却忍不住的笑了？

王学圻在戏中给我留下相当深刻的印象，尤其是他重复梁家辉话的那幕，结结巴巴，充分的表现出市侩了数十年的商人，初明大义时，尚不知如何以口齿表达的状况。演技到足了家，这实在是个非常适合他的角色。他，是这部戏的焦点。

戏里不够好的地方，莫过于甄子丹和戏里女儿的那场，小女孩天真，害臊的表情自然，眼光不自然不用说，谁都知道要让小孩表演有多困难。甄子丹没达到当一位父亲第一次认识女儿，但又想到不久可能就要永远分离，终于了解到当父情的意义，时候不多了。好。。好像对他有点太难了。甄子丹要演真正感情戏恐怕还需一段时候。

十月围城令人期待高，却有点漏气。三颗半星，看不看由你。

我是唯一的神

前一阵子，新加坡灯塔教会资深牧师陈顺平诋毁佛教及道教，闹起一阵风风雨雨。新加坡的网路世界也一阵风波。曾有朋友向我发问，这是不是我国建国几十年宗教和谐终止的开端。我观查了好些日子，心中给了朋友这些定论，

新加坡人不愿，不敢也不会掀起这样的事件。不愿者，生活工作已够折腾了，哪有余力管这类谁是真正的宗教的事。这里赚钱是第一。不敢者，我不敢言也。不会者有如父母重小惯坏，根本不知切身为何物，如何惹尘埃呢？再来，新加坡网路的各个主力都静观其变，也是不愿，不敢也不会涉足。连最爱开玩笑的也没有说一句幽默话。有股倚天不出，谁与争锋的味道。

话外。

其实神是三位一体，唯一不变，或满天神佛？死了的没回报，活着的没看到，是怎么也说不清的。

不过，

有一位华人的神，我肯定他的存在。大家不可不知。

小孩和老人们尤为熟识。我记得小时候常听到外公喃喃自语，不停的重复‘无头神，无头神’。心里以为，整天如念咒般一直念个不停，这个，不，这位神肯定非常的灵光。有求必应，无所不能。后来外公逐渐失去记忆力，才了解无头神的确是法力无边。这种思想，根深蒂固的种在我的脑海里。

我甚至又点怀疑，新加坡人是不是惹上了无头神。话说我一位会计师朋友，常跟我唱道他那行需要记性有多好多好。我曾目睹他很快就忘了几分钟前的事。小事不说。他会一次又一次的借钱给自己知道不会还钱的人，好心提醒他，他还是浑浑噩噩，令我涕笑皆非。无头神在这位‘仁’兄身上的法术，可灵验的很！

我 也发现一点，西方国家的人们，记性可好。他们常爱拿历史出来做比较。某某事好像又再重蹈覆辙，必须警戒，某某人好像在做某某历史人物做过的事，就批判他一 下。等等，等等的。新加坡人，今天新闻的头条，明天就忘了。水电费稍涨价，公共交通费无理调整，甚至于什么灾难，下个月拿薪金时，大选来时，通通忘得一干 二净。不在乎，不愿记，实在有点阿Ｑ～！

所以我说，无头神是这里最重要的神。我也要去参拜参拜一下。

An anti teenage pregnancy video banned in Hong Kong

I have to be the last Chinese to know about this video. Very cim video, allow me to translate. The decease is the unborn, which is represented by a very, trust me on this, very clear ultra sound photo. Teens in school uniform come to pay their respect to it, *ahem* Not It. Grandparent in grave look, everyone looks grave in fact.

The best part, a nurse as a 'Baek Kim' collector, make sense, without teenage pregnancy most of them will be out of job!

All of Chinese taboo in one video, this will be ban in Singapore too. Watch it here.

懒散的老虎

新加坡的华人新年是我见过全球中最不起劲的农历新年。今年尤为什。小弟我虽见识不广，但也敢说言若不中亦不远也！

就在除夕的那一晚，小弟与办工室里半数以上的员工正在开夜班。小我什少迟班，稍稍有点纳罕。就在只闻轻音乐，一片肃穆的气份中，滴滴答答的打字键盘之间，有位同事开口问：“喂！你也在准备明天的工作吗？”

“能准备明天工作的人有福了。我连今天的事都做不完，就快睡着了。”我不经意的回答，心里面滴沽，你明天还有工作，哇！最佳员工奖的竞争可不少。我可无缘问津。恰好此时窗外放起了烟火，使大家振奋了一下。

不过那段灿烂的光辉，只有五分钟，懒散的很。

我为了谐调自已那沮丧的意志，把思路转到最无聊的事上－－新闻，企图转移注意力。结果反而想起了某某部长宣布虎年不会有全国大选的消息。

照呀！非常的懒散。

。。。。。。。。。。。。。

午夜时回到家里，拿起我冷落了一整天的手机瞧一瞧。哦，今年只有一则祝愿我新年快乐的简讯。朋友也淡忘了。

友情也懒洋洋了。

年已过了几天，在这里还是要祝愿大家新年快乐，万事胜意。

我好像也懒了一些。
