在Apple.com的網，赫然發現一格Dan Fogelberg的相...1951-2007...他，已離開了嗎？ 沒有聽到新聞，電台沒有回顧。原來是prostate cancer.終於Dec 16.(D.F. Official Site) 我很愛他的嗓子，Same Old Lang Syne，my favourite，是伴著我中學成長時代的其中一首音藥。是一首會把你的心緊緊扭捏的歌。
Met my old lover in the grocery store, The snow was falling Christmas Eve. I stole behind her in the frozen foods, And I touched her on the sleeve.
She didn't recognize the face at first, But then her eyes flew open wide. She went to hug me and she spilled her purse, And we laughed until we cried.
We took her groceries to the checkout stand, The food was totalled up and bagged. We stood there lost in our embarrassment, As the conversation dragged.
We went to have ourselves a drink or two, But couldn't find an open bar. We bought a six-pack at the liquor store, And we drank it in her car.
We drank a toast to innocence, We drank a toast to now. And tried to reach beyond the emptiness, But neither one knew how.
She said she'd married her an architect, Who kept her warm and safe and dry, She would have liked to say she loved the man, But she didn't like to lie.
I said the years had been a friend to her, And that her eyes were still as blue. But in those eyes I wasn't sure if I saw, Doubt or gratitude.
She said she saw me in the record stores, And that I must be doing well. I said the audience was heavenly, But the traveling was hell.
We drank a toast to innocence, We drank a toast to now. And tried to reach beyond the emptiness, But neither one knew how. We drank a toast to innocence, We drank a toast to time. Reliving in our eloquence, Another 'auld lang syne'......
The beer was empty and our tongues were tired, And running out of things to say. She gave a kiss to me as I got out, And I watched her drive away. Just for a moment I was back at school, And felt that old familiar pain ......... And as I turned to make my way back home, The snow turned into rain ..............

一連數天寫「次按風暴」，有點厭倦，今天談談一些與女性有關的「趣事」，也許可為讀者周末談佐。一、 女性喜歡「行街」購買，原來是宇宙洪荒時期 培養 出來的習性，她們因此是「為購物而生」（born to shop），其買物的樂趣「至死方休」（shop till drop）！
倫敦《每日郵報》八月二十二日有題為〈專家說女性為購物而生〉的新聞，引述九月號英國皇家學會生物科學紀事學報（Proceedings of the Royal Society B）發表二位加州大學研究員有關女性購物的研究報告，他們派出八十六名男女性學生做「田野報告」，結果顯示女性確有喜好及擅長購物的特殊性！
