It's not the winning

To plagiarize Tolstoy - all winners look the same, all losers lose uniquely.

There is no revelation in winning, no lesson to be learnt. A winner has just done what we EXPECT, HOPE and DREAM OF. A winner has fleetingly been best at a mere game this once. Losing and how you lose and how you cope with loss is the drama and the lesson of sport. It’s the fist-full of character you have to summon up, the avalanche of acceptance, the dashing of expectation, the public truth that others are better than you.

You haven’t just to live with this truth, but to overcome it, to COME BACK from it and DO IT AGAIN. Look at a defeated boxer’s battered face – that is to really glimpse our shared humanity. The victor is just a child who’s won a fight.

Third Girl by Agatha Christie

我是個膽小鬼，大部份時間不能受驚嚇。但女人是矛盾而呢樣果樣的，所以我雖然蛇gwaai，卻又喜歡緊張大師希治閣及謀殺天后亞嘉莎。

[第三個女郎]橋段不新奇，簡單來說就是掩眼法，但因為內容圍繞「三個」獨立在倫敦找生活的女孩子，所以我有特別的體會。

話說回來，雖然橋舊，但讀者很受，這就是阿嘉莎的魅力了。

睡前讀阿嘉莎，我又發惡夢了。

If on a winter night a traveler

【如果在冬夜，一個旅人】－此譯名就非常好了，句式及語意都譯到一百分，仲要令人深感迷茫：本書根本就係咁令人迷茫，有頭冇尾哇。是以先生想破頭也未必有更好的提議啦，嘿嘿。

咁＂Invisible Cities＂譯作【看不見的城市】呢？又無咩改進空間喎。若然譯作【隱形的城市】不妥，因為城市並沒有自己隱形自己，只是人們鬼暗眼看不見罷了。

伊張愛玲的吳語和我哋既廣東話

可愛的小男生 FABER 寫的部落文章很好讀。FABER 是廣東話人，漫談廣東話時既有地道用家的一手知識，亦用上人類學的分析框架，文字有條有理而活潑跳脫，趣味盎然。廣東話固然抵死到肉，張愛玲心中的吳語亦有趣得很。在《談吃與畫餅充飢》中，張愛玲提及她小時有種腰子湯，一副腰子與裡脊肉小蘿蔔同煮。裡脊肉女傭們又稱「腰梅肉」，大概是南京話。張愛玲不明白為什麼叫「腰梅肉」，因為湯裡沒有梅菜。張愛玲心中默默惦記此名，多年後悟出是「腰眉肉」。她寫：「腰上兩邊，打傷了最致命的一小塊地方叫腰眼。腰眼上面一寸左右就是「腰眉」了。真是語言上的神來之筆。 」在《「嗄？」？》一文中，張愛玲談得更多。文章由來是抄手亂改張愛玲的助語詞。張愛玲撰文解說，並多說了一些關於吳語的資料。例如「下飯」，張愛玲引經據典，指出《金瓶梅詞話》稱菜餚為「嗄飯」，一作「下飯」（第四十二回，香港星海版第四七二頁倒數第四行：「兩碗稀爛下飯」）。張愛玲說：「同回稍早，『下飯』又用作形容詞：『兩食盒下飯菜蔬』（第四七一頁第一行）。蘇北安徽至今還保留了『下飯』這形容詞，說某菜『下飯』。或『不下飯』，指有些菜太淡，佐餐吃不了多少飯。」又有讀者林以亮先生來信告訴張愛玲上海話菜餚又稱「下飯」並引《簡明吳方言詞典》為證（一九八六年上海辭書出版社；吳言區包括上海——浦東本地 ——蘇州、寧波、紹興等江浙七地)。林以亮說：「現代上海話已把『下飯』從寧波話中吸收了過來，成為日常通用的語匯，代替了小菜或菜餚。上海人家中如果來了極熟的親友，留下來吃飯，必說寧波話：『下飯嘸交（讀如高）飯吃飽。』意思是自己人，並不為他添菜，如果菜不夠，白飯是要吃飽的。」如此看來吳語的「下飯」，跟我哋廣東話的「送飯」極為相似。飯桌上有魚香茄子，大家扒多幾碗白飯，因為魚香茄子惹味多汁好「送飯」。用住家菜請客時會對客人謙說「黎食餐無餸飯」，又和「下飯嘸交」很相像。張愛玲說《金瓶梅》裡屢次出現的「囂」（意即「薄」）字，如「囂紗片子」，也是淮揚地區方言，當地人有時候說「薄囂囂的」。我地廣東話點講？我哋話：「薄徹徹。」是否這個『徹』？有識者請不吝賜教。

The Body in the Library and The Jackie O in the Tribunal

We were watching on the TV how Jackie O was accused of murder and finally found guilty at the tribunal. I opined that the Jackie O showed up at the tribunal was a fake one. My boyfriend burst out laughing. He wrapped me with his strong arms and whispered "Sweet heart, you are way too creative."

I am not creative. I am just educated by Agatha Christie over her novel "The Body in the Library". A swap of identity is a common trick.

Plot summary

The story starts with Mrs Dolly Bantry waking up from a pleasant dream, and noticing that the maid has not been in yet. Suddenly, the maid, Mary, dashes in, tearful and breathless, and informs Dolly that there is a body in the library, before running out again.

Colonel Arthur Bantry then goes downstairs and learns from his butler, Lorrimer, that there is indeed a body in the library, sees it, calls PoliceConstable Billy Palk, and then Mrs Bantry calls her friend, Miss Marple (revealing that the victim has been strangled).

Miss Marple is picked up by Mrs Bantry and her chauffeur, Muswell, and taken to Gossington Hall. There she sees the body. It is a very young girl withplatinum blonde hair, with lipstick and painted nails like a gash, wearing a old but glittery, satin, cheap, black and white evening dress of rather poor quality, with silver sandals. The girl is also wearing a considerable amount of make-up. Soon, the police arrive, the senior officers being DetectiveInspector Slack and the Chief Constable of the County, Colonel. Terence Melchett. Nobody in the household recognises the body, though.

Miss Marple states to Mrs Bantry, that a good suspect in the Bantry's neighbour, Basil Blake, the son of an old school friend of Mrs Bantry's, who is mutually disliked intensely by Colonel Bantry. Basil is well known for dating a young platinum blonde girl, called Dinah Lee. Colonel Melchett visits Basil, but soon discovers that Dinah is not dead, as she comes and argues with Basil.

The autopsy arrives, revealing that the girl was strangled with the belt of her own dress, and that death took place between 10:00 and 12:00 at nighttime. She was also heavily drugged first. Despite her appearance, she died a virgin.

Finally, the body is identified as "Ruby Keene" (her real name being "Rosy Legge"), an 18 year old dancer who worked at a hotel called the Majestic in Danemouth. The body is identified by Ruby's great-cousin and colleague Josephine "Josie" Turner, who explains that she is dance and bridge hostess at the Majestic, but required Ruby to fill in a as dance hostess, due to Josie suffering injuries sustained to her ankle, whilst sunbathing. Ruby would just do the dancing with men, and the exhibition dances with Raymond Starr, the tennis and dancing pro. But the previous night, Ruby went missing, and Josie was forced to do the dance.

After Josie has visited Gossington, Mrs Bantry realises that the one who called the police was Conway Jefferson, an old friend of the Bantry's. Conway had a wife, a son, and a daughter (Margaret, Frank and Rosamund) all of whom were killed in a plane crash. Conway had both legs so badly injured, they were amputated. He lives with Frank's widow, Adelaide, Rosamund's widower, Mark Gaskell, and Peter Carmody, Adelaide's son from her first marriage. And then there is Edwards, Conway's valet. Mrs Bantry then decides that she and Miss Marple will go to Danemouth, stay at the Majestic, and find the killer.

Meanwhile, Melchett has appointed a new assistant, Detective Superintendent Harper. Together they interview Conway and discover that he was going to adopt Ruby, disinherit Mark and Adelaide, and settle £50,000 on her. Despite this, Mark and Adelaide both have alibis. They were playing bridge watching Ruby dancing.

Melchett and Harper interview George Bartlett, who was the last one to see Ruby alive, and who has had his car stolen.

Conway, now tired, orders Edwards to call Sir Henry Clithering. When Sir Henry arrives, Conway asks him to investigate. Sir Henry tells him about Miss Marple. Later after dining, Miss Marple tells Sir Henry that if the case is not solved, the Bantry's lives will be ruined forever.

The police suspect that Ruby went to change to meet a boyfriend, who found out about her and Conway, making him panic and strangle her, leaving her at the Gossington library, and drives away to London. Sir Henry interviews Edwards, who tells him that he saw a snapshot of Basil Blake fall out of Ruby's handbag, making Conway and the reader suspect that Ruby had a lover.

Then, Bartlett's Minoan 14 car is found burning in Venn's Quarry, with a charred and blackened corpse inside. With a few scraps of clothing surviving burning, it is identified as Pamela Reeves, a 16 year old Girl Guide reported missing a few days. Pamela was last seen going to Wallworths. Miss Marple interviews Pamela's friends, and discovers that Pamela was actually going to a hotel, for a film test, after being approached by a "film producer", but Pamela never returned from this appointment.

Miss Marple then goes to Basil Blake's house and informs Dinah Lee that she has discovered that she and Basil are married and that Basil will be arrested for killing Ruby. Basil returns and confesses that after getting drunk and fighting with Dinah at a studio party, he returned and found Ruby lying strangled to death on "his" hearthrug. Panicking, he dumped Ruby in the Bantry's library. The police arrive and Basil is arrested.

Miss Marple, Sir Henry and the Bantrys once again book into the Majestic (they had briefly left), but this time with Colonel Bantry, Melchett and Harper. Miss Marple makes a quick trip toSomerset House (something about marriages) and ask Conway to tell Mark and Adelaide that he is leaving the money to a hostel for young dancers in London, and that he will visit a solicitor to finalize the details tomorrow. Conway does so, and they ask Det. Supt. Harper to keep a watch on people, with his men. Then the Bantrys and Miss Marple (along with the staff and other guests) retire for the night.

At 3:00 in the morning, someone breaks into Conway's bedroom, via the window and balcony, and tries to murder Conway by injecting him with poison, through a needle, but the attacker is stopped by Melchett, Harper and Clithering. But the intruder is not named.

Miss Marple then reveals all to the Bantrys, the Blakes, Melchett, Harper, Clithering, and the Jeffersons. Although nail clippings were found in Ruby's room, the girl in the library had bitten hers, which meant that the body in the library was not Ruby's. When Dinah mentioned Somerset House-marriage, Miss Marple found out that Mark was married to Josie. Upon finding out about Conway and Ruby, they decided to murder her and frame Basil. Mark and Josie approached Pamela regarding a film test, and when she accepted, they bleached her hair, put make-up on her, varnished her nails, put her into one of Ruby's dresses, and drugged her. Mark then slipped away to write letters, and drove down to the sea-front. But that was when he drove Pamela to Basil Blake's house, and strangled her. So when the doctor said the time she died, Mark and Josie had solid alibis, they were playing bridge watching the real Ruby Keene alive and dancing, and they did not leave the table until after midnight. Josie told Ruby to go and lie down in Josie's room. Ruby, as well, had been drugged. When changing for the dance, Josie murdered Ruby, either by strangulation, a poisonous injection, or a blow on the back of her head. In the early hours of the morning, Josie dressed Ruby in Pamela's Girl Guide uniform, stole Bartlett's car, drove to Venn's Quarry, and incinerated the lot.

輾轉思歸

林夕說過要有相當的感情經歷才能寫好歌詞。大學時上董啟章的課，他又說把韓麗珠的輸水管森林和看不見的城市中關於廢墟中的洗浴設施等的一個篇章相提並論。

......


我一無所有。我能給你的只是激情

她從來沒想到事情會這樣發生。她只是一個很普通的中學教師，每天早上五時三十分起來上學，睡覺的時候雙手交叉放在胸前，差不多一千多度，近視三百度散光，三年前才配了隱形眼鏡，冬日夏天都穿一條黑裙子，與丈夫五個月才有一次性，整個人都十分過時，所有人都以為她是基督徒，但很奇怪，她不。

搬到了屯門，轉到一間五級學校教的是中五的數學。壞學校的男學生特別高大，肌肉發亮，腋下的濃毛總教她不敢直視。她開始教微積分便感到了不安，好像有數字在咬她。

男學生做算題時她坐在那裏看校園已經開始轉紅的楓葉。十月天氣，她一直流汗，黑絲裙子緊緊的貼在腿上。她掏出手帕來抹汗，手帕是血紅的，也是絲。

他坐在後排看他。她流汗時他開始發硬，也流了一身的汗。

和她一起流汗就像和她有什麽關係。

測驗時她在試卷裏收到一張從裸女雜誌撕下的女郎照片。女郎的下身和乳房密密麻麻的寫滿她的名字，女郎的口部還滿滿的畫上瓶子毛筆木梳等硬物，塞着。她嚇得站在那裏，一動不動。

這不可能。這樣的事情不會發生在我身上。

就像犯了什麽罪，她不敢對人和人提起這件事。這她自己她都不敢想。

惹人遐想，令人動心起慾，就是她的罪。

但她知道。她上數學課她不敢望課室後面。

要來的終要來。他在教員室門口等她。她走到他前面，停下步來，右手還抱着一疊數學習作簿。他沒說話，雙手插在褲袋裏面。她頓一頓，就「拍」的給他一巴掌。

當夜的月亮很殘酷。

她病了。再上中午數學課時後排空了一個座位。她怔怔的坐下來。良久，坐在前排的小男生低低說：「我們都答完了，密斯。」

那個座位一直空着，直至校園的野火花盛放，他們把座位搬走了。

夜來她自睡夢中苦醒。丈夫抱著她，她說：「有一個男學生。有一個男學生。」

「他為我自殺。血跡從男廁一直流流流到籃球場，真可怕。」

她一直說着說着這故事。跟姊姊說，跟大廈看更說，跟醫生說，甚至寫成小說，登到報上。

Can you identify all the Magritte, Rousseau, Dali parodies? Or can you count how many bananas are there?

The daddy who read the book to his girl is great. Comforting voice, steady pace, unlimited patience, up-front encouragement and genuine interest.

At the very last page when his baby girl made a count in a different way the daddy made a witty conclusion. How amazing!

星座與你

September 2011
Congratulations, Scorpio! You're really growing in matters of the heart. That's because Jupiter, planet of expansion, is well into its yearlong tour of Taurus, your relationship sign. Jupiter entered Taurus on June 4, making normally risk-averse Scorpios loosen those ironclad boundaries. You may have opened your mind to a new "type" or stepped up into a more supportive role in your current relationship. Because Jupiter rules long-distance travel, you may have fallen for someone from a faraway city or even country! Optimistic Jupiter blesses you with a spirit of adventure and the willingness to try anything once. Now, it's time to pull back just a little bit. From August 30-December 25, Jupiter slows down to retrograde motion, a time that's best used for reflection. Sure, you felt a soulmate connection with that eHarmony guy you've been IM-ing every day. But he lives in Maui and you're in Minneapolis. So...is one of you gonna move? How realistic is this-and if it doesn't make immediate sense on paper, are you both willing to uproot your lives to be together? Perhaps you've sacrificed some of your usual standards for the good of the relationship, like our Scorpio friend who swapped her posh, condo-style apartment to move into her boyfriend and his roommate's dingy fifth-floor walkup. It's definitely improved their relationship to live together (and her rent is so cheap it's almost criminal). But the lack of privacy, charm, and a decent local grocery store is starting to wear on our friend, who loves to cook gourmet meals and flounce around in sexy lingerie. Jupiter retrograde poses the challenge: how much compromise is too much? The September 12 Pisces full moon is a good day to get this out into the open. Pisces rules your passionate, expressive fifth house, and it's a fantastic day to confess a crush or just talk openly with your sweetie about how to make the relationship more romantic, exciting, and workable for you both. Sexy Scorpios have needs-all kinds of them-and you can only sacrifice to a point before you want to explode. The fifth house also rules fertility, so this full moon supports any Scorpios who are trying to conceive. In need of closure? (Let's face it, you're a Scorpio, so there's always somebody you're obsessing or ruminating over.) On September 27, the new moon, Sun, Mercury, Venus AND Saturn are all in Libra, your twelfth house of endings and release. This part of the zodiac rules what's been hidden, so things that have been kept secret could come to light. If you've been wondering whether someone is trustworthy-or just worthy at all-meditate on this at the Libra new moon. Evidence one way or another will definitely reveal itself if you make that your intention. For some Scorpios, this new moon cycle may just mean that you begin a period of greater emotional transparency. Scorpios tend to be uber-private, but if you don't let down your guard a little, nobody will ever see your most vulnerable and lovable parts. YOU may fancy yourself a mind reader, but most other people aren't quite so intuitive. Don't wait around for them to guess how you really feel or make getting to know you harder than a "Where's Waldo?" game.


好悶呀呵？這個下午好悶呀！

嘿。

閱讀

我幫一位部門主管舉辦 skip level breakfast，有六十多位同事出席活動，說了很多意見。部門主管表示謝意，請我吃午餐，地點又當然是我最喜歡的 Living Room。

在 Living Room 的大樹幹旁，我穿一條雪白長裙，背後綁一個大蝴蝶結，正午的陽光肆無忌憚地照出一室的明媚。我掀開 Rene Magritte 的畫冊，向部門主管逐一介紹 Rene Magritte 的圖騰。

我的意思是：生活除了工作，還有很多美好事物。

IT 的同事們大部份都沒有閱讀的習慣，而閱讀，能讓我們的世界豁然開朗。開卷，真的很有益。

我的 IT 男朋友也閱讀，但他讀的東西我都沒興趣，也看不懂。不過這是好事，我喜歡去喜歡一個我不能夠完全懂得的男人。

嘿，我喜歡找一個對像去祟拜，這樣我的心便有了著落。

這一個下午我看【我的前半生】

Core Leave 的最後一天我躺在床上就著窗外的陽光重讀亦舒的【我的前半生】。

女主角三十出頭，她的丈夫選擇在這麼平常的一天跟她攤牌離婚。是這麼平常的一天，女主角早起服侍丈夫孩子吃早餐然後上美容院做臉和朋友在置地吃午餐逛街。是這麼平常的一天。

今天不是我平常的一天，今天是我 Core Leave 的最後一天。我剛剛跟你到灣仔的喜喜吃燒味飯。實在太熱了我竟然要了杯凍奶茶。那個乳豬你覺得是燒肉，「這真是的乳豬。」我咬一口沾了甜醬的乳豬，心口漲滿了甜蜜的滋味。

吃完燒味飯我們走過皇后大道走過商場走過公園攀山越嶺一樣地回到中環。途中看了時裝店的櫥窗亦到書局遛撻了一回。我們的步子很快所以時間過得很慢。這在中文叫「愜意」。

Core Leave 的最後一天有這樣的一個午餐和下午，我很滿意。不知道你滿不滿意呢？

【多少恨】

傾盤大雨的日子總叫我想起張愛玲的小說【多少恨】。雨水像一個陰魂不散的幽怨女鬼的披頭長髮，重覆地在我的眼前拂來拂去，擾擾攘攘。其實小說裡好像沒有什麼下大雨的場境，但【多少恨】這故事仍然是幽幽怨怨的。

【多少恨】女主角虞家茵是一個獨居在上海的女子，年方廿五歲。她往一所富有人家打工，當一個小女孩的家庭教師，不經不覺和男主人互相傾慕。男主人打算照顧虞家茵，誰知虞家茵的父親卻跑出來，先要拿許多著數。虞家茵覺得羞愧，便終止與男主人的戀愛，隻身跑往廈門去。

張愛玲筆下有屢見這些一走了之的女子。【多少恨】的虞家茵出走廈門，【小兒女】的景慧獨自到離島去教書，【傾城之戀】的白流蘇無情情跑到香港來其實也是一種出走。我也有出走的傾向。當事情剪不斷理還亂時我便想一個人逃走。

【多少恨】還有一幕場境時常縈繞我眼前：虞家茵洗了手帕，然後把手帕一塊一塊地貼在玻璃窗面上晾晒。這場境在【紅玫瑰白玫瑰】中也有。

我為了給我的IT男朋友送午餐，現在廚房堆了一大堆碗碗碟碟煲呀食物盒呀，又淋了個混身濕透。我很想逃走我不想洗碗，另一方面我那濕得擰出水來的連身裙卻貼不上玻璃窗面，真是多少恨呀。恨恨恨恨恨恨恨恨恨恨。

鳥鳴澗

鳥鳴澗 王維

人閒桂花落，夜靜春山空。

月出驚山鳥，時鳴春澗中。

不知道現在中學還教不教這首唐詩。

陳奕迅【浮誇】中有一句歌詞：「很不安怎去優雅」，我覺得跟這唐詩的意境正正是一個反襯。

不安時浮燥時憤怒時委屈時連收拾面孔五官去微笑也力不從心，哪有心情去看桂花？任它們自開自落算了，街頭那賣花伯伯也自然事不關己。那些夜來還叫個不聽的鳥兒，一氣之下便一個電話打到 1823 去投訴牠們。

人閑才見花，氣不急不壞才能去優雅。

ABC 謀殺案

中學上心理學堂，Mr. Bean 教我們 1+1 不一定等如 2。比如說數個明滅明滅的燈泡，獨立來看就只是一明一滅，但把這些明滅明滅的燈泡順序排成一行，便是一個閃燈訊號。

ABC 謀殺案 (The ABC Murders）是我首本 Agatha Christie 的書。

名偵探白羅正面臨一個挑戰。挑戰者可能是一個連環殺手。殺手好像是順著一本按英文字母排列的英國火車時刻表來殺人：安多弗(Andover)的阿雪爾( Ascher)首先死於棒擊，接著是少女巴納德( Bernnard)在貝斯希爾(Bexhill)海濱被勒死，兇器似乎是少女自己的皮帶。第三起謀殺案即將來臨，是哪個城市哪個人呢？

:-)

我喜歡看 Agatha Christie，因為我喜歡從微小的事物看全局；又或相反，考考自己，跳出作者的佈局，合縱連環，由大前題推理出小節的前文後理。

【天空之鏡】 黎堅惠

蕭公子又被困在冗長的 IPO 會議裡，我想跟他談一談租約打厘印的事也沒能夠擠出時間。

睡前續看黎堅惠的【天空之鏡】，我跳過遊記部份，直接去讀最後一章，讀著讀著我便哭了。天父對我多麼的好，賜給我這本書。

你可曾問過你為何來到這個世界？你可曾問過你生命的意義是什麼？你如何界定愛？你喜歡你自己嗎？你忠於自己嗎？

大概是中二那年開始，我認真地思考上述一連串的問題。我念的中學給我空間去問這些問題，也給我空間去答這些問題。我的中學屬慈幼會支派，機緣巧合我認識了江志釗神父，然後整個中學時代我定期和其他慈幼會中學的公教青年聚會，這個平台讓我進一步不斷思考上述一連串的問題。學校讓我搞 KATSO，大學二年級時天天飛揚先生主催的聯校話劇，讓我一直有機會在眾人面前發聲，說我想說的話。

大學畢業這幾年我以為這些已成過去，我和靈性 say goodbye，因為工作不重視靈性。但是唔係喎，今年有很多小事情發生，彷若召喚的鈴聲，叮叮叮的叫我停一停，回頭想一想這些陪著我長大的信念及想法。小事情包括某一天突然在鏡中看見蕭公子五呎十吋高的身影，包括這本【天空之鏡】。

要多勇敢要多堅強要多自信自愛才可以把傷口掀開給讀者看，要多勇敢要多堅強要多自信自愛才可以把從前不敢宣之於口的私事與讀者分享。為的不是收買人心（用私密換取注意），而是希望自己能夠啟發他人。我向黎堅惠致敬。

我那個聯校話劇的主題是：天主愛我，因為我是我。今年我突然又想起這個主題，對，這就是我。

agatha christie

十月號的 Jet Magazine 談推理小說。其中一個雙連頁列出了古今中外推理偵探--沒有 Agatha Christie 筆下的白羅和瑪波小姐。

我實在不明白。

金田一那個悲報島的故事，是抄 Agatha Christie 的 "Ten Little Indians"。東野圭吾的【容疑者Xの獻身】那個死者不是死者的橋段，Agatha Christie 在 "The Body in the Library" 中一早做用了。

就小說而言，令我最著迷的是“ABC Murder", " A Murder is Announced"，和“ The Murder of Roger Ackroyd“。

而在白羅和瑪波小姐之間，我比較偏好後者。瑪波小姐認為人與人之間的差異是相當微小的，只要你對人生有足夠的體驗，再加上細心一點的觀察，你會發現任何人的行為都是有跡可尋的。

我喜歡觀察別人，亦對 unreconcilable 的細節非常敏感。我曾經想做 forensic accounting 的工作，但沒有機會入行。噢。

嘿。
