One Last Photo from the Window
In keeping with a China Blog tradition, I'll sign off with a photo from the bureau window. Only this time there's no snarl of cars to be seen. Amazing how a few tanks (they're practicing today for the Oct. 1 National Day parade) can clear out traffic.

In a symphony.
In the light
of a symphony
there's a charming
intention, and
also that fortune;
there's a little
desire and the
sound of a
beautiful noise....Francesco Sinibaldi

Dear Austin,
As a reader following this blog for 2 years, I'd like to say good bye to you. Honestly, I like your old articles talking about your life in the Hu Tong area in Beijing, your neighbors, your toilet problem
etc. Then recently your style just changed. You became more and more like Simon Elegant. I think you got lost. I'm not sure if it's because of any pressure from your boss or whoever. Anyway, good luck to you in your future. -

Austin,
Your attached Photo is provocative or misleadingly inspiring?
Keep it up! Young man
回應 [ 如果你是一個老年而看不見共產主義是什麼的人,是不是有些急功近利?虛度此生的感覺?唉!其實,許多為主義而洒熱血,擲頭顱的人,他們也想看到共產主義能兌現的一天,雖然看不到,也甘於慷慨就義,這就是共產党人和普通人的不同之處。]
______________________________歌曲《洪湖水,浪打浪》中一句歌詞:"共產黨的恩情比那東海深"。而大陸歌唱家宋祖英2002年在悉尼歌劇院(Sydney Opera House)演唱這歌曲時,就把上述歌詞改為:"爹娘的恩情比那東海深"。
我想我沉醉在共產主義革命浪漫的日子比你早得多,然而我回頭了﹗就像宋祖英小姐那樣,明知共產主義教條出不了口,連港、澳、台也出不了。還戀棧什麼?
共產黨人和普通大陸人最大不同之處,就是共產黨人及其家屬以權謀私,亦官亦商,一個普通大陸人一生人賺不到的金額,在共產黨人手中,不及一頓晚飯。
那些為主義而洒熱血、拋頭顱,在解放戰爭中犧牲的人,看到今日共產黨的腐敗比他們當攻打的國民黨多很多倍時,他們一定會覺得虛渡此生,熱血白流。

What will be my last comment then?
Well, the Chinese government does deserve to show off in the upcoming celebration.

Are you sure you're not closing down your blog because Time gave you an office with a shitty view of a roundabout and not one overlooking Tianenmen Square?
