月前的中學會考有一題, 提到「見鬼勿O咀, 潛水怕屈機」,該等「潮語」, 即年青潮流人的口頭用語, 引來廣泛討論, 更成了本地近日的熱門話題。這麼巧合, 有位80代生的文化人出版了「香港潮語學習字咭」, 十分暢銷, 很快便賣光了, 碰上中學會考這事件。時機這麼夾, 到底有沒有內幕, 不得而知。
這篇感性電郵是出自以下這位人兄,蔡子強先生,現職中大政治及行政系副教授, 出版過幾本暢銷的書,書目《君王論》,正主持香港電台的《閱讀解碼》節目, (這個節目很好看,每集介紹不同的書種/書店/作家,可在網上重溫)。單看他的牌面(即是客觀的條件), 不俗吧! 唔, 至於外型呢...自問不是以貌取人的人...但, 如果他玉樹林風多一點點, 那篇感人的e-mail, 可以加多10分!
到底有多少女士, 第一眼, 並不留意男士的外型, 而是欣賞他的內涵是以貌取人。還是,女人要到幾多歲, 在挑選對象時, 才不會計較另一半的儀表。
(該篇人物專訪的版面,坐著的那位正是蔡子強先生)
重點聲明: 讀該文內容,據說他那位氣質與李若彤相似的前度女友,應該是因為性格不合與他分手, 沒半點關係到他的外型! (李若彤是位香港演員,曾演過金庸小說裡的小龍女一角)
我對他的心理分析:依然是純情少男心理, 好想再找感情落腳點, 卻沒勇氣, 抑或是碰過釘, 所以退而懷緬過去, 找一個感情的躲避處。他, 應該有一丁點介意自己生得唔靚仔! 計我話, 豁出去啦! 可嘗試催眠自己是吳彥祖!

明天母親節, 祝你我的媽媽天天都開心快樂, 身體健康!
Get up now, get up now, get out of bed. Wash your face, brush your teeth, comb your sleepy head. Here’s your clothes and your shoes, hear the words I said. Get up now, get up and make your bed. Are you hot? Are you cold? Are you wearing that? Where’s your books and your lunch and your homework at? Grab your coat and your gloves and your scarf and hat. Don’t forget you got to feed the cat. Eat your breakfast. The experts tell us it’s the most important meal of all.
Take your vitamins so you will grow up one day to be big and tall. Please remember the orthodontist will be seeing you at three today? Don’t forget your piano lesson is this afternoon. So you must play. Don’t shovel. Chew slowly. But hurry. The bus is here. Be careful. Come back here. Did you wash behind your ears? Play outside. Don’t play rough.Would you just play fair?
Be polite. Make a friend Don’t forget to share. Work it out. Wait your turn. Never take a dare.
Get along. Don’t make me come down there. Clean your room. Fold your clothes. Put your stuff away. Make your bed. Do it now! Do we have all day? Were you born in a barn? Would you like some hay? Can you even hear a word I say? Answer the phone, get off the phone. Don’t sit so close. Turn it down. No texting at the table. No more computer time tonight. Your iPod’s my iPod if you don’t listen up. Where you going and with whom and what time do you think you’re coming home? Saying thank you, please, excuse me. Makes you welcome everywhere you roam.
You’ll appreciate my wisdom someday when you’re older and you’re grown. Can’t wait ‘til you have a couple little children of your own. You’ll thank me for the counsel I gave you so willingly.
But right now I thank you NOT to roll your eyes at me. Close your mouth when you chew would appreciate. Take a bite. Maybe two of the stuff you hate. Use your fork. Do not you burp. Or I’ll set you straight. Eat the food I put up on your plate. Get an A. Get the door. Don’t get smart with me. Get a Grip. Get up here I’ll count to 3. Get a job. Get a life. Get a PhD. Get a dose of…I don’t care who started it. You’re grounded until you're 36. Get your story straight and tell the truth for once for heaven’s sake. And if all your friends jumped off a cliff would you jump too?
If I’ve said it once, I’ve said at least a thousand times before that. You’re too old to act this way. It must be your father’s DNA. Look at me when I am talking Stand up straighter when you walk a place for everything. And everything must be in place Stop crying or I’ll give you something real to cry about Oh! Brush your teeth Wash your face Get your PJs on Get in bed Get a hug Say a prayer with Mom. Don’t forget I love you**KISS**. And tomorrow we will do this all again because a mom’s work never end.s You don’t need the reason why. Because, because, because, because, I said so, I said so, I said so, I said so. I’m the Mom, the mom, the mom, the mom, the mom. Ta-da!
