为何不买Kopi-O?

作者: 黄德峻 发表时间: August 26, 2006 – 12:27 pm -

Starbucks最近在泄露自己的低,把最便宜的咖啡告诉世人,也就是”short cappuccino”。这个short cappuccino在starbucks的菜单(menu)上是找不到的,不过它却是最便宜的咖啡。

Starbucks claims that’s because they don’t have room on the menu board. Coffee Republic doesn’t even have that excuse: there’s a blank space with no price where this drink should be listed.

—— BBC News: ‘Product sabotage’ helps consumers

为什么Starbucks要锨自己的底呢?难道想改走薄利多销的路线?

以我这么多年来成为人类的经验,事情不可能这么简单的。人嘛,有虚荣心,就算知道有这被便宜饮品,不过为了面子问题,还是会选择menu上所列有的贵咖啡。而这个饮品可以吸引到那些只闻咖啡香,不进来买咖啡的stingy人士(例如我)。当然,这个menu上的luxury饮品还可以骗到那些不懂有便宜咖啡存在的人的钱。

给男子省钱的忠告:避免带女子接近这些高级消费所,例如:Kim Gary, Starbucks, Baskin Robin, etc…

稍微动火

作者: 黄德峻 发表时间: August 25, 2006 – 10:05 pm -

很久没这样稍微发脾气了,这几年来脾气都控制得不错,可是有些人就是让我稍微动火了。

虽然脾气没以前那么暴躁,不过那些不小心被我骂到的人,我觉得有些内疚(我基本上不管什么人,在我火的时候,只要做错一点点事都会成为我的victim)。

我想我还是需要多些修行。

自从好久好久以前的一句:“如果你不接受马来西亚是伊斯兰国家,你就滚出去。”,这个言论后来闹得很大很大。

昨天,马来西亚国际贸易与工业部长Datuk Sri Rafidah Aziz做出以下的言论:

“We are not hiding anything and there are areas you can have 100 per cent equity, majority stake and 30 per cent Bumiputera stake … those who have other feelings can go elsewhere,” she said.

只剩下八个行星

在我不能online的日子以及blog出现问题的日子,我和世界脱轨了。现在我回来了,看到的是我们的solar system只剩下八个行星。

CHICAGO – Two weeks ago, there were nine planets. Last week, it seemed, there were 12. And now there are eight, as the world’s astronomers on Thursday demoted Pluto, that beacon to underdogs at the solar system’s outer frontier.

Problem at Duller

作者: 黄德峻 发表时间: August 24, 2006 – 5:49 pm -

Yesterday, i tried the wordpress upgrade package exabytes provided me, but it overwrited my wp-content files, which made the whole blog design gone.. i requested for their technician to restore my backup and after several hours, still no one replied me… in the end i manage to use my own dumb way to restore my backup..

the problem is, even now everything looks normal at the index page, however, if you try to click any of the link that link to another page of this blog, it will still lead you back to the index, this indicated that all the page files were gone. I checked the manage at my wp-admin, the articles are still inside, but no matter how i save it, it still redicrect to my index. And also, even i set the permission for all the wp-content files in my wp to 777, i still can’t save them in the wordpress wp-admin, got any clue to fix this? apparently exabytes failed their promise to their customer that they’re avaibable 24/7 anytime, and their sites seems to be loading slow.

-addition-

even when i publish this post, when u click the link, it still won’t goes to the single post. if you have any idea what’s going on, please email me about this as you cna’t leave comment here.

女:“我的course有很多美女。”
我:“那你想表达些什么?”
女:“可惜他们大多都已经attached了。”
我:“你还没attach不是吗?”
女:“嗯。”
我:“那你一定不是其中一个美女。”
美丽从哪里来?自信。

睡眠债 Sleep Debt

作者: 黄德峻 发表时间: August 23, 2006 – 3:23 pm -

最近skip了几个lecture的原因都是因为睡过头。明明很早就入眠,可是还是睡得死死的,没听到闹钟响。我想这几天大概是在还我长期拖下来的睡眠债。

记得小六那年,读Stanley Conren的《Sleep Thieves》中译本——《爱迪生的诅咒》,里面有提到说人的睡眠有分好几个层次,只要在睡得最死的那一阶段睡短短几个小时就好了,不然如果你在很没有quality的几十个小时睡眠,也不会帮你补回你的精神的。 读更多 »

Dawn Yang澄清她整形疑云

作者: 黄德峻 发表时间: August 23, 2006 – 11:35 am -

在八月21日,Dawn Yang a.k.a. clapbangkiss写了一篇文章,打破了她整形谣言。

自从她莫名奇妙的出名之后,就有某位妒忌心很重的blogger就爆料说她是整形美女,并拿出照片作证。

Dawn Yang为此并没有做出任何反应,直到两天前她就说:“Sure, I had a totally gross pic taken of me, a cnadid shot at the worst angle possible with the worst facial expression and the most overplucked eyebrows”

这谣言会不会止于智者呢?

怎么绑鞋带?

作者: 黄德峻 发表时间: August 22, 2006 – 3:45 pm -

小时候我很不喜欢那种绑鞋(shoe laces)带的鞋,因为觉得很麻烦,所以都是买那种绷带。长大后,由于常跑动,这种绷带鞋常常脱落,所以只好换成鞋带的。

有鞋带的鞋有什么好处呢?就是跑的时候没那么容易脱落,可是有时候鞋带会松开,会绊倒你。我就会好奇,那些踢足球的为什么怎么跑他们的鞋带都不会松开的。
