睡前看书看片的时候，经常会在手边放一个杯子。杯子里有时是茶，有时是酒。比如最近就比较喜欢喝郎姆兑可乐。bevmo最便宜的大瓶bacardi，walmart减价的2升装coke。我一直坚持饮酒适度的原则，在夜店最多3杯，绝不会不省人事竖着进去横着出来。
其实说适度，不过是不胜酒力罢了。再加上酒价不菲，就算在家，我都是喝完一瓶才买一瓶。昨晚把一瓶bacardi gold倒得剩了个底，叨念着白天一定去买，不过依然忘记。晚上把冰块放进杯子时，懊恼了好一阵子。
可是接下来当我翻箱倒柜找饼干时，在某壁橱里的麦片后面，居然发现了一瓶完整的bacardi superior。仿佛从天而降，大叫一声，surprise！然后故作镇定地站在那里。我与它对视了10秒钟，觉得喜悦程度超过了上次扫地扫出10块钱。另外还有道德上的附赠品——是说你要变成酒鬼了么？
我在壁橱里统共发现：bacardi surperior一瓶，smirnoff vodka一瓶，辛丹波sake半瓶，05年zinfandel半瓶，budweiser半打。之后又从角落里搜出hard lemonade一瓶，vodka shot两三支。也不知何时变成过仓鼠？又像极了阿里巴巴的宝藏，打开的后果是立刻睡倒。

转眼就到了公元二零零九年三月底。早上打开脸书，看见过生日的某同学做完进度报告，大家纷纷道贺作双喜临门状。想起四年毕业的几个天才少男，忽然发觉我白白虚掷了许多光阴。文艺来健身去，不但毕业遥遥无期——到现在连个论文题目都还没有。
不仅论文题目没有，实际是连个正儿八经的文章也没有。不是我小人家不努力——三篇第一作者的文章在案上堆着呢。可是要发出去颇有难度。这事儿说来话长。第一篇文章去年九月完工，浩浩荡荡四十八页，另附精美插图十余帧。老板阅后十分满意，“比我审过的百分之九十的文章都好”，并告知可原文照录，作毕业论文的三分之一。（我小人家心花怒放之程度可想而知。）不过好虽好，“似乎嫌长”，而且文章用的方法还没发表，值得另起一篇。照他的意思，此篇文章应先砍三分之一。砍完之后按下不动，回头把另一篇写完了两篇儿一起发。不料这就成了无底坑。 Continue Reading »

近几日心情烦躁，睡眠不好，工作还未受影响，整张脸已开始鼓瑟齐鸣。店里买来的药膏雪雪白，涂起来好比狗皮贴。只好等夜里跑到见不得人的地方，偷偷躲起来擦。
奇怪的是一脸白点时，照镜子反倒坦然，还盘算着是不是要拍照留念。大约是妄想着明早洗掉药膏，一切奇迹般回复正常。或者是厌恶平日的自己太甚。现在换了一个样貌，正好——坏东西只要眼不见，都为净。

From a Darwinian point of view, strong men are role models of all men, as they are physically fitter for the cruel jungle world. They have greater chances to survive hardship, and are more likely to be successful at passing on their genes. This is largely true even in today, when the society is no longer dominated by pure physical power.
I shall exclude well-educated white-collar grownups from this picture. They are often too polite to detest their peers’ beer belly, or simply have grown into a mental state where they cease to notice their own. They have established a life, their biological task is done, so who cares what comes next? It is in the young people’s world (where most parts are still uncertain) that the raw nature shines from time to time. Brainy boys with weak limbs are forever prone to mockery; and it is always the basketball jocks, not the math nerds that win the dance with the prom queens. Being smart is good. But biceps are essential as well. Continue Reading »
