FREEDOM of LAZINESS, one day in the future ...

Abandon my Glass House ! 放棄我的玻璃屋。。

2011-12-03T19:03:00.000-08:00

I decided to move to a new home, though I've lived at my current home for several months only. It's a nice place, a "glass House" in shallow sea zone . I could swim whenever I step outside my home. I could come to the roof of my house, enjoy the sea breeze while zipping coffee during sunset. At night I love to lay on my super-sized bed at my underwater bedroom. Draw apart the window curtain, I could watch groups of colorful coral fishes swimming around. I could play all kinds of water sports day and night. I should be very Happy. However I start feeling bored when everyday live like this.

According to the global constitutional law, every citizen aged over 16 has the right to "Own a Home". This "home" could be built or bought from the market. The World Government will provide me all the support either financially or technically. And I couldn't wait to enforce my "right" when I passed my 17-year old birthday last year. Originally I had designed a mushroom-shaped underwater glass house myself, and drafted some floor plans already. The World Government also send an architect and a civil engineer to help me. But I heard that it takes several years to get approvals from different departments, before I could actually get a license to build my dream house. So I finally decided to buy an existing one.

Every person could only has a free "Home" once in a life time (recently some politicians argue it should be 2 or 3 times.). After you own your first "Home", you could sell or exchange it with other people, and the World Government would even give the "little angel" (aged 16~25 ) citizens some renovation grants each time they move to a new home. I heard that some people made big money just by selling and exchanging their free Home. Of course I'm not a greedy person.

I've searched the "info wall", seen numerous 3D images and finally picked up a few choices. One is the recent big hit "ancient walled buildings" in Asia. These high density residential towers were once criticized by people in the old days that apartments in these buildings were too small and not suitable for human to live inside. The World Government had declared these building as monuments and forbid people to live inside.

Until two years ago, a bunch of young lawyer won a court case and successfully seized the ownerships of several lines of these walled buildings, many of them are located in Hong Kong, a bustling city hundreds years ago. They then hired celebrity designers to design and renovate interiors of these buildings, combined several apartments into one, so conformed to the "Human Living Space Protection" law. Now these re-packaged apartments have became "dream home" of the elites. Those top-notch scientists, engineers or lawyers said they get bored living at their spacious and isolated houses, and like the warm and bustling atmosphere in these "crowded" apartment buildings. They also like to encounter and talk to their neighbors every time they leave or come home.

I may probably choose one of these apartments to be my "next" home. The only thing that make me reluctant to leave, is the girl living near my home who would swim to my home every night. And she is naked every time. Why she doesn't like to wear clothes?

我終於決定了搬屋，雖然才搬進這間位於淺海區的玻璃屋幾個月。這是一個好地方，每天我踏出大門口便可以暢泳；黃昏日落時又可走到天台邊喝著咖啡邊享受海風；晚上躺在海底睡房的大床上，只要拉開布簾又會見到一群群顏色鮮艷的熱帶魚在我身邊游過。喜歡水上活動的我終日可以玩過不停，我本應是很開心的，但天天如事，住久了開始感覺有點悶。

根據環球憲法規定，每位公民16歲後，有權利擁有一間屋，可以是自建或者揀選現成的。我上年17歲生日已急不及待行使了這個權利。本來我自行設計了一間水底蘑菇型玻璃屋的，草圖早已畫好了，環球政府也派來了一位建築師及一名工程師為我提供協助。不過聽說要等各個部門逐一審批，至少要一整年時間，我才可以獲得牌照動工。所以我最後決定買現成的算了。

「個人房屋擁有權」一生人只可享用一次﹝最近好像有一班熱心的議員提案增加為兩次，兩次之後隔幾年他們便會提議三次了...﹞。不過擁有了第一間屋之後，便可以把它賣掉或跟人以屋換屋，政府還會支助我們這些「小天使」組群﹝16~25歲﹞市民一點裝修費用。聽說有不少人就是憑以屋換屋發了大達。我當然不會那麼貪心。

在「訊息牆」搜尋了一輪，看過無數立體圖像，已揀了幾個心水選擇。其一就是最近極流行的，在亞洲地區的古代「屏風樓」，一排排的，高聳入雲，每個單位也相當細小。古代的人批評這些大廈的單位太細小，不適合人類居住。環球政府早已把它們定為歷史古蹟，禁止人類居住。

不過兩年前一班年輕律師打贏了官司，將幾排「屏風樓」的業權買下。當中大部份是位處香港，幾百年前一個十分繁榮的城市。他們請了著名的設計師將單位的室內重新設計，把幾個單位打通，空間大了，符合「保障人類居住空間」法律。這些經重新包裝的單位，現在成了那些菁英份子的「夢想的家」。那些頂尖的科學家、工程師、律師等表示，他們已厭倦了現在居住的獨立大屋。他們反而喜歡「擠迫」的「屏風樓」單位那份熱鬧、溫暖的感覺，喜歡平日出入也可能碰到熟識的鄰居，可跟他們聊聊天。

我想我很大機會選擇搬到一個屏風樓單位，唯一一樣東西令我捨不得的，就是住在我家附近那個少女，她每晚也會游到我家，每次總是全身一絲不掛的。為何她不愛穿衣服？

AntiMatter Weapon 反物質武器

2011-10-23T18:50:00.000-07:00

A senior researcher in the World Army Lab was arrested this morning for sending out a provocative message to his colleagues, though the message had been encrypted. Its contents is now widely spread on the world Message Wall which says, "Really Great! We have successfully produced a container for the New Weapon. It's time for us to think or consider seriously to use it to make us evolve faster, well, such as to eliminate the old spice. I know it's immoral. I know we should protect our our ancestors ,like the wild animals in the protective zone. But a lion or a tiger won't be so eager to prove that they also have real contribution to this new world. "

Many elite scientists spectulate the "New Weapon" in this message refers to "antimatter weapon". When antimatter contacts regular matter, a hugh amount of energy will release. Antimatter weapon is much more destructive than traditional nuclear bomb, and will leave no any radiation or chemical traces. All living creatures or buildings being attacked will just "disappear suddenly".

一名在國際武器實驗室工作的高級研究員今早因為向同事發佈一段煽動性的訊息而被捕，雖然這訊息已經「加密」，但該訊息的內容目前已在「訊息牆」廣泛流傳，意思如下：「真好！我們既然已成功為『新武器』製造出盛載器。我們會否是時候想想，或者認真考慮一下，怎樣令我們進化得更快，例如，可否將舊物種完全清除。我知這是不道德的想法。我知道我們應該保護我們的祖先，好像愛護在保護區內的野生動物一樣。不過，一隻獅子或者一隻老虎，是不會那麼渴望去證明自己對新世界同樣有實質貢獻的 ...」

很多頂尖科學家估計，訊息內所指的「新武器」應該是「反物質」武器。當「反物質」接觸「正常物質」會產生出巨大能量。「反物質」武器比傳統核子武器有更大破壞性，而且不會留下任何幅射或化學痕跡。任何受襲的生物或建築物只會突然消失得無影無蹤。

An ancient Lazy-Star Flag 一片遠古的「懶惰星」旗幟

2011-08-20T02:42:00.000-07:00

one day in the future ... To overthrow this perfect "new world" might be easy. The main problem is who will be responsible to invent and control those production machines afterwards, who will make those quirky laws to ban people from saying words like "lazy", "stupid", etc. to insult us? Don't expect me, a talented artist would do this kind tough & dirty job! And you're not a very intelligent "elite", why should I listen to your order? You'd better use this ancient Lazy-Star Flag logo to design a T-Shirt, and put them in those Worldwide fashion chain stores for sales. Oh, don't forget to print your signature or artist's name on this "artwork".

MESSAGE from an Elite : The "OLD" human murmur all day long, it's quite annoying. However we need to be considerate. Though we all have passed the critical point of human genetic revolution, our intelligences are several times higher than them. But they're our ancestors, we have to protect them, just like what we've done to our wild animals. We have to setup many protective zones and let them live happily inside. They're not dangerous either, at least not so aggressive as a Lion or a Tiger. They just want to prove that they also have real contribution to this new world.

未來世界的某一日... 要推翻這個「近乎完美」的新世界可能很容易，最大問題是之後由誰去發明、開動那些生產機器？誰去訂立各式各樣的古怪法例，去禁止別人用「懶惰」、「愚蠢」等形容詞去侮辱我們。不是要我這個很有才華的「藝術家」去做如此艱巨、厭惡性的工作吧！何況你又不是智商特別高的「精英份子」，為何我要聽從你的命令？那片遠古年代革命軍遺留下來的「懶惰星」旗幟，你不如拿旗幟上面的圖案來設計成T-恤，放在一些環球時裝連鎖店發售比較合適。記得還要加上你的簽名或藝名啊。

一名「精英份子」的訊息：那些「舊」人類終日吵吵嚷嚷，真的有點令人煩厭，不過我們要體諒。雖然我們這群少數精英份子早已衝破了進化的臨界點，智力比他們高出好幾倍。但是，他們不竟也是我們的祖先，我們要像保護野生動物般愛護他們，為他們設立一個個安全的保護區，讓他們快樂地生活下去。何況他們是沒有惡意的，至少攻擊性比獅子、老虎等肉食性猛獸低。他們只想證明自己對新世界也有實質貢獻。

Woman Tycoon 's 1 million dollars bid for a Sperm Sample ... ! 競投精子！

2009-08-08T00:47:00.000-07:00

My cup-sized mini pet leopard is sleeping sweetly on my thighs and I don't want to move my body to disturb it ... can't move and got nothing to do, I turn on the message screen. It's a live interview ... ... again.

"You spent 1 million dollars to bid an "another" man 's sperm sample to produce your offspring. Do you think it's an insult to your current boyfriend?" asks the celebrity journalist, hoping his first question could already provoke anger of the interviewee and so let him has more performance time. That celebrity journalist had been dubbed a "genius" journalist since he was 12. Now he is just a twenty-four year old man and has become the managing director of a multinational media group. Being the company director he needs not go to the frontline anymore, but this time his target is a fourty years old woman tycoon whose story has made headlines around the world recently, of course he would grap this golden chance to show off his talent.

In front of him is one of the world's 100 richest people, a confident woman who owns and runs numerous companies worldwide. Her companies also employed many of this "young talents" like him and the youngest one is just 15 years old. She knew very well the limit and naiveness of these " geniuses". She replies quietly "I like to call him My Husband."

"After the Absolute Freedom Bill, few people would use the word Husband ... well, it's up to you. Do you think you've insulted your ... husband ?"the celebrity journalist adds. The woman tycoon picks up a glass of green fruit juice on the desk, takes a zip. "refreshing." she says to herself and also tells her lawyer to make a try. Then her eyes turn back to the journalist and answers, "It's he who encouraged me to do this."

"He is impotent?" the journalist asks, with a cunning smile on his face.

"We have a nearly perfect sex life ! The doctor also prove his reproductive function is 100% normal. But rising a child is a serious matter, I hope my son or daughter will have a perfect and happy life."

"You think his gene is not good enough ? "

"He's young, sporty, a very talented artist. I think his gene should be quite good. But I always look for perfection. We human have evolved and need not be bound by the traditional family values. These values had long been proved a total failure !"

"If in future everybody do the same thing, nobody would produce their offsprings sexually."

"Would it be a problem ? In the ancient days we eat to survive, nowadays we eat to enjoy. SEX is the same. These days we need not choose a person who cannot give you sexual pleasure, but might be your offsprings' good mother or father to be your partner. Frankly, if I'm getting old,l I still like to make love with Little Angel young boys !"

"Your thinking is SO avant grade. You've successfully done the eugenics plan which many dictators in human history had dreamed of ! You think you were GOD ?"

Since the journalist has used the word "God" and the woman tycoon is an atheist. The lawyer teams on both sides have to discuss on the spot (studio) whether this word is against the "Anti-discrimination" law. So now on the message screen, I can only see two groups of lawyers, 20 people in total are talking with each other using professional terms, it's totally dull. Actually this situation happens quite often, no matter which chanel you choose to watch . That's why these days nobody like to watch Live programme. So am I ...

那個競投精子的女富商 ...

我的迷你寵物小花豹正甜睡在我的大腿上。我不想移動身體打擾牠 ... 不能動，無所事事，開啟了訊息屏幕。正在播放一個現場訪問節目。

「你花一百萬競投另一個男人的精子去製造自己的下一代，覺不覺是對你現任男友的一大侮辱？」那位12歲開始便已被吹捧成天才記者的名嘴男主持，希望第一條問題就能挑起受訪者的怒火，好讓自己有更多的表演時間。他今年才廿四歲，已貴為某誇國傳媒集團的行政總裁，照理不用再上前線去訪問人。但是今回面對的是全球關注事件的主角，一位四十歲的女富商，他自然不會放過機會。

受訪者是全球百大首富之一，她旗下的眾多公司也不知聘請了多少位這類的「年輕才晉」，年紀最小那位更只得十五歲。她當然深深明白這類人的能力局限和無知，只氣定神閒的回答了一句：「我比較喜歡稱呼他為『我的丈夫』。」男主持反應也快，隨即補充：「『絕對自由法案』通過之後，已很少人用『丈夫』這一詞了。隨便你吧！覺不覺這樣做侮辱了你的... 丈夫？」女富商拿起了桌上的一杯青綠色果汁，喝了一口，自言自語的說了一句：「味道很清新。」她還示意身旁的律師試喝一口。之後視線才重回到男主持，回答：「是他鼓勵我這樣做的。」

「他是性無能？」男主持毫不客氣追問，臉上有狡猾的笑容。「我們的性生活近乎完美，可以說偶然想起也會發出會心微笑。醫生亦證明他的生育能力正常。不過培育下一代是很嚴肅的事，我希望將來的兒女有一個美好的人生。」女富商輕鬆回答。

「嫌棄他的基因質素不夠好嗎？」

「他年輕、有活力，又是一位很有前途的藝術家，他的基因質素相信也不會差吧。不過我要求的是最完美。其實現代人已經進化了，我們不要再受傳統的家庭觀念束縛，那一套早已證明徹底失敗。」

「將來人人學你那樣，豈不是沒有人透過性交繁殖？」

「有何問題呢？這就是進化。古代原始人吃東西是為了生存，現在我們是為了享受。今時今日性愛也一樣！我們再不用為了幫下一代找一個合適的父親或母親，而硬要跟一個不能帶給我們性歡愉的伴侶生活。老實說，將來我老了，依然喜歡跟『小天使』少男做愛。」

「你的思想也挺前衛，古代很多邪惡領袖想做的『優化人種』計劃也給你這個現代人做到了。你當自己是神嗎？」

由於主持用了「神」這一詞，而女富商又是無神論者。雙方的律師團要即場討論這用詞是否違反「反歧視法例」。於是畫面所見是兩班律師，共20人在互相用冗長的專業用語對話，實在悶死人。這類情況其實常常發生，無論收看哪一個頻道也一樣。難怪如今沒人願意看直播的節目。我也是 ... ...

Global Symbols Copyrights Association ...

2008-12-13T19:46:00.000-08:00

These days the elites are so clever, that they set numerous rules to allocate 90% of the resources in this world to themselves. They call these rules "Law".

The machines are working so hard, that they could produce things more than we need. They call themselve "Human".

So the majority left (mediocre people) got nothing to do and live off social welfares. They call themselves "Artists".

See, people in this heaven-like future world are so perfect, that everyone is living in happiness and absolute freedom, including the Freedom of Laziness.

* some of the symbols in the above article, such as "%", "." etc. might be copyrighted materials. If the article is not for personal or educational purposes, the writer has to pay a HUGH amont of money to "Glbbal Symbols Copyrights Association". Again it was setup by a group of elites.

** whether the "mediocre" is against the "World Discrimination Law" is still under debate, so i have to give it a blanket.

未來世界的某一日 ...

今時今日那些菁英份子都那麼聰明，定立各式各樣的規則去將地球上九成的資源分配給自己。他們稱這些規則為「法律」。

那些機器多麼的勤力，能夠生產多於我們所需的東西。它們稱自己為「人類」。

因此其餘的大多數﹝平凡人﹞變得無所事事，依靠社會福利生活。他們稱自己為「藝術家」。

看看，這個像天堂一樣的未來世界是多麼完美。每個人也在快樂及絕對自由下生活，包括擁有懶惰的自由。

evolved to extinction 進化到絕種

2008-08-05T01:45:00.000-07:00

one day in the future ...

Is human a herd animal? or we have evolved to be solitary. These days each of us lives like the ancient panda, is wandering lonely and aimlessly in the bamboo forest every day. Maybe one day you would come across a "same species" but you won't care. If it opens its mouth and humbly begs you for some bamboo leaves, you would give it some immediately, then quickly walk away without taking this same species a second glance.

At this moment you might think you were the creator of this forest and look down on every living creatures you have seen. You have become picky in choosing your food and your sexual partner. Yes, we all have successfully evolved to extinction, to completed the mission our GOD gave us thousands of years ago.

Look, a worn out "Lazy Star" flag is hanging high in a piece of bamboo. It might be left by a young revolutionist in the old days. I so admire our ancestors ... who all can live a meaningful life. Now we have no any government to overthrow, our "new" world are so perfect and so liberal ... if you still want to fight for something, the only way maybe to demolish the whole "new" world ... how come today's bamboo leaves taste so light ?

未來世界的某一日 ...

究竟人類是群體動物？還是已經進化成獨立個體。今時今日我們每一個都活得像遠古的大熊貓，每天孤獨地、漫無目的地在竹林遊蕩。可能一天你會遇上一個同類，但你會漠不關心。若然牠謙卑地開口向你乞求一些竹葉，你會即時給牠一點，然後便會馬上走開，再也不會望這個同類第二眼。

那一刻你可能會認定自己就是這個竹林的創造者，看不起眼下所見的一切生物。你對食物及性伴侶的選擇已經變得異常挑剔。對了，我們已經成功進化到可以自我絕種，完成神幾千年前給我們的唯一任務。

看，一棵竹幹上高高掛了一面殘破的「懶惰星」旗幟，可能是遠古年代一位年輕的革命份子留下的。我很羨慕我們的祖先，全部都可以過著那麼有意義的生活。現在我們已經沒有甚麼政府可以推翻，我們的「新」世界是多麼的完美，多麼的自由 ... 若果你還想為爭取一些東西而作戰，唯一的方法可能是摧毀整個「新」世界 ... 為何今天竹葉的味道那麼淡？

A pink ant ...一隻粉紅螞蟻

2007-12-26T19:37:00.000-08:00

one day in the future ...

Are you ok ? I knew today afternoon you would celebrate with your friends in that upclass restaurant we used to hang out and quite a concidence i was shopping nearby, so took this chance to come to see you and say "I wanna break up". ooh ... actually we had so much fun together ... i still remember last week we tided together on your "flying machine", then jumped from the spire of the "Liberty Tower". In less than a few second we were flying above the sea, waves were splashing onto my face ... it was so exciting. However that exciting feeling could not last for too long. Soon I feel bored again. I admire you got such an interesting job, live a meaningful life everyday. The reaction on your face was a bit wired. You was gazing at me in shock and your friends were laughing behind your back. I have no idea what you the elites were thinking about at that moment?

hey ... share with you an interesting piece of news, it happened one hour ago. The only crop-production machine programmer in this world was found hang himself on the spire of the "Liberty Tower". Another "the only" again ... "You said to me you're a crop machine programmer. Is he your colleague?" His top-naked body is now still hanging on the spire and swinging with the wind. On his chest, there is a big "ant" symbol in pink color. The police said he self-painted it before he committed suicide. People all over the world are now guessing what this "ant" symbol means? Why this elite scientist would get tired of this colorful new world.

I'm sure he was not tired of this world, on the contrary he loved it very much. See, he chose such a pretentious way to die, his intention is nothing but wants the other people remember him even after his death. Ha ... he don't know he'll fail, just a few days, people will completely forget him and his corpse. And the meaning of the "ant" symbol is so straightforward. It should be inspied by the mother nature ... this poor guy might think if he could live like an ant, is willing to be "one of" the many soldier or worker ants. Maybe he could find the meaning of living in this colorful new world.

These days every elite wants to be the "queen ant", wants to be "unique" and looks down on each other. Their ego suddenly boost to an extent that they begin to question the bible ... and suddenly be easily collapsed by a sentence of a little angel ... in the end he understood human being will become extinct soon. The process might not involve a big earthquake, fire balls falling from the sky ...or etc., it might be very slow and quiet. One day the crop-production machine stop running, nobody know how to repair it. The other day the murmur sound of the lawyers & politicians disappear, only the laughters of the little angels could be heard till they're all exhausted and fall down one by one. Corpses of the elites are hanging on the towers' spires, trees' tops and everywhere. But even without human, the ants would continue to exist for hundreds years. And why the symbol is in "pink" color? it's a beautified color of the fresh blood. Only that way an elite's body could keep clean.

What do you think about my analysis? As a "little angel", our time is spent on these trivial little things. What're you doing now ?

未來世界的某一日 ...

你沒事嗎？今天知道你會在那間我們以往常留連的高級餐廳跟朋友慶祝。我又剛好在附近購物，便趁此機會走過來跟你說聲分手。其實我們相處一點問題也沒有。還記得上星期你我一同綁在你的飛行器上，由「自由之塔」的塔尖一躍之下，不消幾秒便滑翔到大海。我們貼近海面飛行，浪花時不時濺到面上，刺激到不得了。可惜這種刺激維持不了多久，很快我又覺得納悶。真的羨慕你有一份如此有趣的工作，每天都活得那麼有意義。剛才見你的反應有點怪怪的，望著我發呆了一陣。你身邊的朋友還在你背後窺笑。那一刻真不明白你們這些菁英份子在想些甚麼。

跟你分享一段有趣的新聞吧。是一小時前發生的 ... 全球唯一的糧食系統程式設計師被發現在自由之塔的塔尖上吊頸自殺。又是另一個「唯一」？你好像跟我說過你也是一各程式設計師，他是不是你的同事呀？他那具赤裸上身的屍體仍掛在塔尖，隨風搖仿，胸前還有一個粉紅色的巨型螞蟻圖案。警方估計是他自殺前自己塗上的。全世界的人都在猜這個圖案的意思，那個菁英科學家又為甚麼厭倦了這個多姿多釆的新世界。

我肯定他沒有厭倦這個世界，而且還相當留戀。他死得那麼造作，不正是想死後其他人依然記得自己。但是他的想法實在太幼稚了，不消幾天人們已對他及他的屍體忘記得一乾二淨。至於那個螞蟻圖案意思就更加簡單。靈感大概是來自大自然。他必定想到若果他能夠像螞蟻那樣，甘心做眾多工蟻或者兵蟻的其中一隻，大概還有活在這個世界的理由。

如今新世界每個菁英份子都要做蟻后，要獨一無二，又互相看不起大家。他們的自我一時膨脹到開始質疑聖經的真確性，一時又被小天使的一句說話便徹底搞碎。最後他終於明白人類很快便會滅亡，過程未必有大地震、天降的火球 ... 等等，可能是寧靜而漫長的。某天糧食生產系統停頓了，沒有人懂得維修。本來吵吵鬧鬧的律師及政客們亦寧靜下來，只有一班小天使在繼續嬉戲，直至筋疲力竭一個個倒下來。一個個菁英份子的屍體掛在塔頂、樹尖，無處不在。不過即使沒有了人類，螞蟻還會繼續在這個新世界存在好幾百年。那麼圖案為甚麼是粉紅色？是美化了的鮮血顏色，這樣才能夠保持一具菁英份子的身體的純潔。

覺得我的分析怎樣？我這些「小天使」終日無所事事，就是想這些無聊事。你又正在做甚麼呢？

The Pink Mosaics ... 粉紅色的馬賽克

2007-07-29T04:33:00.000-07:00

one day in the future ...

No sound, Fear, Running and Fresh Blood.

A mushroom cloud is rising slowly and quietly in front of the deep blue sky, then another follows, and more and more ...

Giant glass column tubes of different diameters are scattered in a shallow water zone in the middle of pacific ocean. They are actually a group of chicly designed independent houses. Each has three floors, the bottom floor is under water. The interior have different styles also. Some have big sofa, sleeping bed, cartoon figures, furry dolls. The other have Jacuzzi and acient roman sculpture installed. Some have reflective wall film, so not allow people or fishes ouside to see through, cover these houses a shroud of mystery. To look closer, inside one glass tube a pair of nude boy and girl are chasing each other around their home. The other side, on one tube 's rooftop a young boy is lying comfortably in the beach chair, enjoying the sunshine. Few people are doing wakeboarding on the sea.

To move the eyesight down underwater ... a bunch of colorful coral fishes are kissing the tubes' glass walls, eating algae attached on the glass surfaces. Several curious dolphins are swimming around. A big curved message screen is installed in almost every glass tube house. Apart from these, you can see "soldiers" wearing sensors on their upper body are fighting at their homes. One is sitting on a sofa chair with his mini pet sleeping aside. One is standing. One whose upper body is lying against a cool lime rock column, her legs are immersed in the Jacuzzi. To look from the far side, this place is really like the heaven, deep blue sky and water. People (Angels) here don't like to wear clothes and feel shame either ...

Superficially these soldiers do not have any disciplines. They are actually belong to a group of elite special forces under the World Parliament Army, named "the angel forces". It composed of boys and girls with average age of 16. Their eyes' and fingers' muscle nerve response is at least 10 times faster than normal people. They are selected from ten of thousands of volunteers. Today their mission is to sit comfortably at their homes, and through the encrypted radio signal to control their "airships" to fly to the enemy unnecessary damage thousand miles away to fight. The civilized new world still has enemy?

Nearly one year ago, a group of primitive people in the green zone elected a new leader. He leaded his followers to tortue a thousand year old tree to death and then burnt it up. After a series of debate and debate and debate, this morning the world parliament finally declared this legally elected leader is against the "Green Bill", and passed an order to arrest him. The content providers are so excited about this news and even put the once so hot "World Lawyers Association vs Scientists' Union" conflict aside.

The world army flagship first drops hundreds of "shake bombs" from the space to the enemy site. These bombs can provoke a mini earthquake. "Its strength will be so weak that it will just make the enemy tunnel network collapse, but won't lead to any unnecessary damage above the ground surface." that's what the elite scientists said but no one has proved that. Then it's the angels 's turn to fight. Their airships will fly close to the ground and kill the enemies one by one. The real-time image will be projected on their message screen at home. It's 100 percent feel like on the real war site, except they won't see the real blood.

According to "Little Angels Protection Bill", a software has to be installed in every little angel's message screen. This software could automatically generate "mosaics"to block the blood or bloody images in less than 0.00001 second after they appear. In the past people use red mosaics, but the psychologists said red mosaics also have "violence" implication, so now only "pink mosaics" are allowed. A bunch of primitive people get hit on head, they will soon turn into a heap of pink mosaics. The screen image is moving fast, the pink mosaic "cloud" explode like firework on a deep green background, with the hit figures on the left bottom corner rising rapidly at the same time. One can imagine the image they're seeing is very artistic. That may be why soldiers these days are all volunteers.

Few primitive people luckily hit down an airship. One of them picks up a piece of metal debris, waves it high to the sky to demonstarte their victory. In just a few seconds they are burst into a heap of pink mosaics. On the far far side, a quiet glass house underwater. A "angel force" member has fighted for several hours and feel tired. He presses a button to inform the heardquater, his airship control is immediately shifted to another member. He takes off the sensors, then hugs his male partner to sleep ...

未來世界的某一日 ... 粉紅色的馬賽克

沒有聲音、恐懼、逃跑和鮮血。

一朵蘑菇雲在深藍色的天空下寧靜地緩緩升起。接著是另一朵，還有更多，更多 ...

在太平洋中心某處的淺水區，散布了很多直徑大小不一的巨型玻璃圓柱體，其實是一間間設計精緻的獨立玻璃屋。每條玻璃柱皆有三層，最底的一層在水面之下。裡面的裝修各式其色，一些擺放了沙發椅、睡床、毛毛公仔。另一些在大廳中間裝置了按撫浴池及卡通人物雕塑。還有一些安裝了反光牆幕，完全不讓人看穿內裡的情況，多了一層神秘感。再留心細看，某條玻璃圓柱內一對全身赤裸的少男女在奔跑禧戲。另一邊的玻璃柱頂層天台，一個少男躺在沙灘椅上，悠閒地享受著日光浴。不遠處的海面還有幾個人在滑水。

視線移到海底。一大群珊瑚魚在喙食玻璃外層的綠澡，還有天生好奇心重的海豚在圓柱中間穿插。原來很多「單位」也安裝了弧形的大型訊息屏幕。除此以外還看見一個個上身穿著了感應控制裝置的「士兵」在家中「作戰」。他們一些躺在沙發椅上，身邊還有他們心愛的迷你寵物甜睡著。一些站立著。一些上身倚著冰涼的雲石柱，雙腳浸在按撫浴池之中。遠看這裡像極一個天堂，藍天白雲，尤其是這裡的人﹝天使﹞都不太愛穿衣服，亦不會覺得羞恥。

這班看似沒有任何紀律的「士兵」，其實是環球政府軍隊的一支精銳無比的特種部隊。他們有男有女，平均年齡只有16歲，對視覺刺激和手指肌肉的反應都比常人快很十幾倍，是萬中選一的精英，被稱為「天使部隊」。今天他們的任務就是安坐家中透過加密的無線電波，控制自己的機械飛行器到幾萬公里外的敵方陣地作戰。

文明的新世界還會有敵人嗎？記不記得年多前，綠色地區一班原始人選出了一位新領袖，他帶領他的追隨者將一棵千年古樹虐待至死，然後把它燒掉。環球議會經過反覆的討論又討論又討論，今早終於投票裁定他們違反「綠色法案」，要遞捕這位領袖。各大訊息供應商都對這個消息感到很雀躍，甚至把曾經鬧得熱哄哄的「環球律師會」和「科學家聯盟」的爭拗也放在一旁。

巨型作戰旗艦先從太空掉下百幾棵「震盪彈」，在敵方的陣地誘發一場小型的地震。「強度剛好能夠令敵方的地道網崩塌，又不會引致地面的無辜傷亡。」這是那班精英科學家說的，但從來沒有人去證實真假。然後是天使部隊出動，他們的飛行器會低飛逐一獵殺敵人。作戰畫面即時在他們家中的訊息屏幕顯示，感覺仿如置身真實戰場一樣，唯一是他們不會看見鮮血。

根據「保護小天使條例」，每名小天使「士兵」的屏幕必須安裝一套安全系統，能夠在鮮血於畫面出現後的萬分之一秒內，即人類視覺神經產生反應前用馬賽克方格遮掩。以前是用紅色的方格，後來心理學家認為紅色同樣會引起血腥的聯想，目前統一採用鮮粉紅色的馬賽克。一班原始人戰士被擊中，隨即變成一堆粉紅色方格。畫面快速移動，在深綠色的背景下一堆堆粉紅方像煙花一樣爆發，螢幕右下方還有不停跳升的「命中」數字。你會覺得他們眼前的畫面很有藝術性。難怪現代的軍人全都是自願入伍。

幾個原始人僥倖擊落了一部飛行機器，其中一個興高采烈地拿著一塊燒焦了的廢金屬片向天空揮舞，要宣示勝利。不消幾秒便化成一堆粉紅方格。遠方寧靜安逸的水底玻璃屋內，一名天使部隊成員連續作戰了幾小時，覺得累了，發訊號通知總部。他的飛行器控制權隨即被轉駁至另一名成員。他輕鬆將身上的感應器一一除下，然後又可以跟身旁的男伴相擁而睡 ...

farmers in the civilized world 文明世界的農夫們 ...

2007-02-12T03:55:00.000-08:00

I'm working day and night to produce numerous resources for you. Why you mediocre people are still not satisfied? Have to compare yourself with those minority elites and insist to say you have the same contribution to this new world as them. Actually if you could live like the "little angels", to indulge yourself in all kinds of desires, you would be much happier.
Who am I ? I'm the Central Food Production system in the civilized zone. Most people living here don't know, I can think. It's not strange. I was designed by a group of genius scientists. The other people simply don't get the intelligence to understand ... even the most superficial thing about me. Actually the word "mediocre" has many objective and scientific definations. Since people in the civilized world have passed numerous laws to prohibit the usage of adjectives like "stupid", "ugly" and etc., gradually the ordinary people think they're not mediocre and begin to compare themselve to the minority elites. Just like this morning, I received a command to withdraw robots in one third of the farmland. A new law has just been passed limiting one tenth of the corp in the civilized world has to be produced in traditional way, that is by human labour. This morning I saw from my atmosphere monitoring system a ridiculous scene. A bunch of young people gathered on a large piece of farmland. They were all holding ancient farm tools and expressed brillant smile on their faces. They murmured they had broken the onerous constraints of modern civilization and found the real meaning of life. Few artists was sitting by the road and drawing the scene .
To be frank, what they're doing is a total waste of land resources. Luckily those genius scientists who created me just take a few minutes , they could easily think of a smart way to modify my algorithm and compensate this loss. The elites do not understand the happiness of these mediocre people. They're living in two totally different worlds. Maybe one day in an art auction, some of the elites would spend a huge amount of money to buy a few pieces of these drawings. Then the artists would be extremely happy and begin to despise those "farmers" in their paintings.
Why you're so eager to prove you have contribution to this new world ? Now I could do all the job for you and you should do nothing but enjoy your life. But you are still not satisfied and scared ... scared of what ? I would rule and control you one day ? Or those minority elites would despise you ? What's the meaning of ruling a group of mediocre people who are sre so stupid? ... and I'm not as lucky as you, I have no desire ... The elites won't care anything about you either ...

未來世界的某一日 ...

我日以繼夜不停工作，為你們生產了享之不盡的資源。為何你們這班平凡人仍不滿足，硬要去跟那些少數的精英分子比較，說自己對新世界同樣有貢獻。其實你們只要學「小天使」們那樣，終日沉醉於各種慾望之中，生活不是會更好嗎？
我是誰？呀 ... 我是文明區的中央糧食生產系統。住在這裡的大部份人也不知道，我是會思考的。這也難怪他們，我是由一班天才科學家設計的，其他平凡人根本沒有能力去理解，真的連皮毛也不會懂。「平凡」其實是有相當科學化的客觀標準。不過自從文明人訂立了各式各樣的法例，禁止使用「愚蠢」、「醜陋」等形容詞，大家少說了也漸漸不覺得自己平凡，還嘗試跟那些精英份子比較起來。例如今天我便接到指令，要調走約三成耕地上的機械人。一條新法例規定文明區內十分之一的穀物必須要由人力生產。早上我的氣象監察系統看見了一片農地上聚集了大班人。他們興高采烈地拿著遠古年代的器具耕作，個個臉露燦爛的笑容，口中喃喃自語說甚麼戰勝了現代文明的束縛、找到人類存在的意義。路邊還有幾個藝術家在繪畫現場的情景。
他們的行為其實浪費了不少土地資源，幸好設計我的那班科學家只要花幾分鐘動動腦筋，更改我的操作程序，便有方法彌補這些損失。同樣這班平凡人的喜悅亦感染不到那些精英份子。大家各有自己的生活圈子和興趣。可能在未來某個藝術品拍賣會上，一些精英份子會願意付高價買下這些藝術家的畫作，然後那班藝術家便會沾沾自喜，開始看不起當日在農地上耕作的那班平凡人。
為何你們千方百計要證明自己對新世界有實質貢獻？如今差不多所有的工作我也可以為你們代勞，你們生存的最大意義應該是盡情享樂，不過你們還不滿足，還要害怕 ... 害怕甚麼呢？我會控制、統治你們？那些精英份會看不起你們？統治一班比自己「愚蠢」的平凡人有甚麼意義呢？何況你們比我幸福得多，我根本沒有慾望 ... 那些精英份子亦不會關心你們的一切 ...

Sperm sample worths one million 價值一百萬的精子

2006-11-26T19:06:00.000-08:00

A 40 years old business woman successfully made a record one million bid for a sperm sample donated by a 21 years old young man. The donor's identity has to keep secret but according to information released by the auction company. He's an olympic medal winner and currently studying law at World Central University. The PR manager of the auction company said the price is so high cause it's an "one-time and one-acceptor" deal. The bid includes a contract to restricts the donor to give sperm donation in future and only the "buyer" has the right to use this sperm sample. He also predicts the recent "Absolute Freedom Bill" (* see my previous diary) would encourage more and more single people in civilized region to buy "perfect" eggs or semen to produce their offspring non-sexually. "Since there're no such thing as marriage, mother and father anymore. People are now more open to this reproduction way. In our heaven-like new world everybody would love and take care the children." he added.
These days the machines do all the production works. The civilized adults could either be a "professional" or "artist". The professionals are all carving for perfection and could not tolerate any flaw. If one day an artist got fame, he would call himself a "professional"...

價值一百萬的精子
一名40歲的女商人以破紀錄的一百萬成功競投得一個由一名20歲男人損出的精子樣本。損出者的身份要保密，但根據拍賣公司提供的資料。他是一名奧運會獎牌得主，現正在環球大學修讀法律。拍賣公司的公關經理表示今次的競投價格如此高，是因為交易還包含了一份合約，限制損出者將來再進行任何損精活動，而且只有買家才有權使用該樣本。這是一次「單一接受者及唯一樣本」的交易。他還預計最近通過的「絕對自由法案」﹝*留意我之前的日記﹞會令文明區的單身人士選擇購買「完美」的精子或卵子，以沒有性交的方式製造下一代。「現在已經沒有結婚、父親、母親這概念。人們自然對這種『生育』方式抱更開放態度。在我們現在那個近乎天堂的新世界，每個人都會愛護及照顧小孩子。」他補充說。今時今日，機械負責了全部的生產工作。文明世界的成年人一是「專業人士」，一是「藝術家」。「專業人士」全都追求完美，接受不了任何瑕疵。一天一名藝術家成了名，他會稱呼自己為「專業人士」。

Ostrich Riding ...olympics

2006-11-26T19:03:00.000-08:00

The olympics is coming next week but I don't have any expectation or excitement at all. Only two competitiions interest me. One is the "ostrich riding". People don't know why this newly-developed sport would suddenly become so popular and attract so many "little angel" audiences, ha .. like me. It's already replaced the traditional equestrian to be one of the 36 official games. There's really lots of fun watching the "athlete" riding an ostrich to show a series of "natural movements", jumping & running. The judgement is similiar to equestrian also. Though it's a serious competition and so are the althetes' face, sometimes are those well-edited camera shots can hold my interest and make me burst into laughter, well ... such as slow motions of ostrich's running, close-ups of its three-toed feet or expressions on its faces (always open its mouth) ... or a bunch of feathers flying in the air and block a part of the camera after a perfect "jump" ... ... "Group Fighting" is my another choice. Twelve people against twelve people in a 100 x 80 meter square. Each althete wears a "sensor" suit. They can choose their weapon freely ... ... well .... I shouldn't say it's my favourite, my best friend love to watch and so I would watch at times... I personally don't have any expectatipon at all ...

未來世界的某一日... ... 駝鳥騎術比賽
奧運會下星期來臨，但我一點期待和亢奮的感覺也沒有。基本上我只對兩個項目感興趣。其一是「駝鳥騎術」。人們不知道這項新興運動怎會變得如此受歡迎，吸引那麼多像我一樣的「小天使」階層觀眾。它已經取代了傳統馬術成為環球奧運會的36個主項目之一。看著一班運動員騎著駝鳥，展示一系列的「自然」動作、跳躍和跑步實在很有趣。「駝鳥騎術」的評審準則也跟傳統馬術差不多。雖然它是一項嚴肅的比賽，看看運動員的臉孔便知，但很多時候是那些經過精心剪輯的即場比賽鏡頭帶給我無窮的趣味，甚至令我捧腹大笑。例如駝鳥奔走的慢鏡頭、牠那對「三指腳」和臉上表情 (經常張開口) 的近鏡，或者是經過一個「完美」跳躍之後，一束羽毛飄到空中，遮蔽了部份的鏡頭 ... 等等。另外的選擇就是「群體博擊」比賽。每隊十二個人，兩隊在一個100 x 80米的範圍內互相對賽。每位運動員都穿上全套的「感應衣」。他們可以自由選擇武器 ... 呀 ... 我不能說這是我的喜好，不過是一位最好的朋友喜歡看，所以偶然自己也看看 .... 我個人實在沒有甚麼期望 ....

Worldwide General Strike ... 環球大罷工

2006-11-23T19:43:00.000-08:00

Virtual News：In a recent court case, a 45 year-old scientist is charged with publicly claiming a 16 year-old girl be his girl friend. Even with the girl's consent, he has not obtained any psychologist assessment report on the girl's cognitive development beforehands, the scientist is against the "little angel protection law". Similiar case could be heard almost everyday. What made it develope into a big news is the prosecutor who is also the chairman of the world lawyers association.
He used the word "scientist weirdo" to describe the defendent in the court. It's this "identity descrimnative " word made scientists all over the world burst into anger. Scientists' Union decided to hold a worldwide general strike until the chairman apologize publicly. The chairman rejected immediately and insisted the word he said was pointing to a particular people in a particular case . Now all crop-growing machines has stopped operating and our civilized people ran into panic. The Union spokesman said the laywers murmur all day long and have no any real contribution to this new world. They kow they're stupid and have no real flair for mathematics and all kinds of creations, so they made a law banning all people saying the word "stupid". It's how they make their living. This time they've to make a law to ban the word"hungry". The other side, the lawyers' association is urging the police to arrest all Scientists Union members and charge them with murder.
Virtual Diary：Early in the morning, an official from the social welfare department rang my door bell and brought lots of food into my home. No kidding, really "lots of", including many bags of rice (I don't eat rice), boxes of spaghetti, corn flakes, canned sandine, smoke salmon, cheese, bread, .... and ... the man said it's enough for my two-month consumption. If I want to refill, just give them a call and the number will be valid until the strike is over. I feel strange ... should i say thank you ... now my home is more like a warehouse ... do they know how much time i've spend on decorating my home???!!! the worst thing is ... if the strike is over tomorrow... how to handle all those spaghetti, corn flakes, canned sandine, smoke salmon????
I also notice he's wearing a recently much hyped "pig" t-shirt. However watching him rudely stuffing all those things into my home, I knew his taste ...
These days all people in our heaven-like new world are living in harmony. The "professionals" look down on each other. "Free persons" live off social welfare, but they work hard on all kinds of artistic creations. The "little angels" (people aged below 18) are all worshipped by the adults and living in their own little worlds. The machines do all the production works. No one is superior to and cares about others, so no conflicts ... except when they all got an urge to possess a little angel.

未來世界的某一日...科學家大罷工
虛擬新聞：一名45歲的科學家被控公開宣稱一名16歲的少女為自己的女朋友。雖然女方同意，但他事先沒有獲得心理學家對該名少女心智發展的評估報告，違反了「保護小天使」條例。類似的案件差不多每日也聽見。不過案件中的檢控官，他也是國際律師會的主席，卻令這宗小案變成了大新聞。他在法庭上用了「科學怪人」去形容案件中的被告。這個帶有岐視成份的名詞令全世界的科學家大怒。科學家聯盟決定舉行全球性的大罷工，直至律師會主席公開道歉為止。主席即時拒絕，並堅持他在法庭上所講的，是針對某特定案件的某特定人物。任何文明人皆會明白。
目前全球的穀物生產機器已經停頓，文明人陷入一片糧食恐慌之中。科學家聯盟的發言人說，那些律師們終日吵吵嚷嚷，對新世界社會卻毫無實質貢獻。他們自知愚蠢，又沒有數學及創作任何東西的天份，於是就立一條法例禁止所有人公開說「愚蠢」一詞。這就是他們的生存方法。看來今次他們又要立一條法例禁止「饑餓」二字。另一邊，國際律師會要求警方馬上拘捕全球所有科學家聯盟的成員，並控以他們謀殺罪。
虛擬日記：大清早，社會福利部的官員便按我的門鈴，將大量食物搬進我家。不是說笑，真是很「大量」，包括無數包白米﹝我根本不愛吃飯的﹞、意大利粉、栗米片、罐頭沙甸魚、煙三文魚、芝士、麵包 ... 還有 ... 那個男人說這應該足夠我兩個月食用，有需要還可以致電通知他補充。那個聯絡號碼直至大罷工結束前還有效。感覺怪怪的 ... 我應否多謝他呢 ... 現在我的家十足像一個貨艙 ... 他們知不知道我花了多少時間去布置這間屋？？？！！！最壞的事情是 ... 若果罷工明日便結束 ... 那些意大利粉、栗米片、沙甸魚　... 應該怎處理？？？
我也留意到那個男人身上所穿的，是近期十分流行的野豬圖案恤衫。看那個男人將大包小包食物硬塞進我的家，便知他沒有甚麼品味可言。

"popular" museums ...

2006-11-18T21:20:00.000-08:00

That very senior "marketing" man call me again this morning. Maybe to add some "little angel element" in their products can help them to boost sales. It's ridiculous. These days nearly all product say they're targeting the "angel" market. How could it be? We're the minority in this new-world society. Those giant shopping malls are not our favourite haunt either. In the end all these products are consumed by those middle-aged elite. The marketing man said my work is very artistic ... ha ... my father is a real artists. why they didn't call him? why his sculpture works could never be allowed to exhibit in their "popular" museums? why he and my mother drifted apart?
"Your father is not an artist. Have you heard anybody talking about his name? He's just a lazy man living off social welfare. Nowadays the machines do all the production work, so mediocrity is a sin, even being an artist ..." I remember my mother once told me last time she got drunk at my home. Of course at my home, according to the law, it's illegal to use the word "mediocrity" to describe a person publicily. ..I hang up the phone without saying a word.

那個「非常高級」的市場經理今早又再來電。可能加入一些「小天使」的元素真的能夠幫助他們推銷貨品。但實在可笑。今時今日差不多全部產品也說是針對「天使」的市場。怎可能呢？在這個新世界社會我們不過是少數，那些巨型的購物中心亦不是我們愛留連的地方。最後這些產品都是全給那些中年的精英份子買了。市場經理說我的作品很有藝術性 ... 哈 ... 我爸爸是一個真正的藝術家。為何那個經理不找他？為個他的雕塑作品從不可以在他們那些「流行」藝術館展出？為何他和媽媽會疏遠起來？
「你爸爸不是一個藝術家。你聽過其他人談論過他的名字嗎？他只不過是一個依靠社會福利維生的大懶人。今時今日機械負責了全部的生產工作，所以平庸也是罪，即使作為一個藝術家亦一樣 ... 」我記得上次媽媽來我家喝醉了，曾經這樣對我說。當然是在我家，根據法律，在公眾場合用「平庸」一詞去形容一個人是犯法的。我沒有說一個字便掛斷了線。

my mini leopard and beef steak ...

2006-11-16T18:57:00.000-08:00

My mini leopard's body is hanging and swinging slowly in the air. It has no intention to release its mouth, neither me, to release my hand holding the beef steak. The instant it saw me took out this bloody piece of beef meat from the refrigerator, it jumped up and bited at its "prey". At this moment we're looking at each other, the atmosphere is getting tense. I know eating raw meat is its instinct but this piece of meat is very important to me also. This is the first time I learn cooking and the beef steak is a vital ingradient of the my dish. I want to grill a beef steak for my monther's dinner next month and so have to practise beforehand. It's my father told me mum love to eat beef steak very much. Quite an irony, I've never heard him said my mum love him very much. Its eyes are so determined and so are mine. I won't let my mini pet ruin my whole plan. Luckily, I still got one hand free and I begin to attack .... my fingers are scratching its belly ...

Lately I read a book. Several lines are very interesting. "The ancient indian caste system still exists in our new world. In our modern system, each caste is not distinguished by race, birth or wealth but our exaggerated self-esteem." ooh ... that maybe why my mother, father and I are now living in three different houses in three different countries ....

迷你花豹的身體正在半空搖晃。牠沒有打算放開口，而我亦一樣，絕不會放開拿著牛扒的手。就在我從雪櫃取出那片血淋淋的牛肉的一剎，牠即時跳高咬著牠的"獵物"不放。現我跟牠兩眼對望，氣氛有點緊張。我明白吃鮮肉是牠的本能，但這塊牛扒對我也很重要。這是我第一次學煮餸，而這片牛肉是其中的重要材料。我打算在下月媽媽來我家吃的晚餐上，親自烤一片牛扒給她吃，所以必定要事先練習。是爸爸跟我說媽媽很愛吃牛扒。諷刺的是從未聽過爸爸說媽媽愛他。迷你花豹的眼神相當堅定，我的也是。我絕不會讓我的迷你龐物破壞我的計劃。幸好我還有一隻手可以自由活動。於是我開始攻擊 ... 我用指尖猛騷牠的肚皮 ...

近期看了一本書，其中幾句很有趣。「現今世界其實同樣存在古印度的階級制度。不過現代社會不是以種族、出身及財富去區分每一個階層，而是今日我們過份膨脹的自尊。」可能是這個原因，媽媽、爸爸及我現在會分別住在三個國家的三間大屋。

Dinner with my mother ...

2006-11-16T18:55:00.000-08:00

what a surprise ! This morning i receive a call from my mother, says she'll come to my home to have dinner next month. It's the tenth time since I moved to this home. She is a renowed lawyer in the city, an "elite" in our new world society and a good mother in many ways. She would chat with me almost every night, about my health, my friends, my mini leopard and everything, of course through the message screen. I really want to live in her home but I dare not request. According to the law, I've such a right. But I remember two years ago when I was 12, I came across her on the street shopping with her friends happily. I ran to them and say "hi", as a daughter I naturally held her hand but she withdrew. From that moment on, I knew my existance might embarrass her. I'm not that bad. I just failed the compulsory "Intelligence Test" (a little below average) at 3 and now have a bland appearance. No, I personally think my big eyes are very attractive. Maybe I'm not a daughter could make her proud of, especially in front of her "elite" friends. She is a good mother however. She never blame me. I 'm sure one day if I became a top scientist, doctor, lawyer, business owner or any kinds of professional in this heaven-like new world . She would introduce me to her "elite" friends. But I'm sure that day won't come. I lack motivation to do everything and simply want to be a "free person", an artist ... like my father ... a man whom my mother said is the biggest regret in her life.

These days the machines do all the production works. The civilized adults could either be a "professional" or "free person". The professionals are all carving for perfection and could not tolerate any flaw. They just have two goals in their life ... looking for a non-existing "perfect mate" and compliments from the little angels.

未來世界的某一日。
真開心。今早收到媽媽的訊息，說下月會來我家食晚飯。這才是我搬進來後的第十次。她是一位著名律師，新世界社會的"精英份子"，也是一位好媽媽。她差不多每晚也會跟我聊天。話題挺廣泛，關於我的健康、朋友、迷你獵豹 ... 等等，當然是透過訊息屏幕。我其實很想跟她同住，但一直也不敢提出。根據法律，我是有這個權利。不過記得兩年前，當時我才十二歲，在街上碰見她正跟一班朋友開心購物。我雀躍地走去跟她的朋友打招呼。作為女兒自然地拖著媽媽的手，但她即時縮開了。這一刻開始我才明白，我的存在會引起她尷尬。我其實也不是太差，只是三歲時通不過強制的智力測驗﹝比平均差少許﹞，現在的外貌又太平凡。但我認為自己的大眼睛也算吸引。可能我不是一位令她引以為傲的女兒，尤其是在她的那些「精英份子」朋友面前。但她是一位好媽媽，她從不會指責我。我亦肯定若果將來有一日，我成為一位頂尖的科學家、醫生、律師、商人或者其他類別的專業人士，她定會在她的朋友前介紹我這個女兒。不過這一天肯定不會來臨。我根本提不起興趣做任何事情，只想做一個「自由人」... 一個藝術家 ... 就像我的爸爸一樣。一個我媽媽口中所說，成了她一生最大遺憾的男人。

今時今日，機械負責了全部的生產工作。文明世界的成年人一是「專業人士」，一是「自由人」。「專業人士」全都追求完美，接受不了任何瑕疵。他們的人生只有兩個目標，追尋一個根本不存在的完美伴侶和來自「小天使」的讚美。

"pig" work ...

2006-11-15T18:54:00.000-08:00

one day in the future.
Since it first appeared in my message screen, that wild boar's ugly face can now be seen everywhere, T-shirts, handbags, shoes ... and human bodies. Yes, it's became a popular tatoo pattern among the middle-aged women and men lately. All those elitist designers around the world seem to be inspired by the same pig, have produced numerous very distinctive "pig" works, well, as defined by those international brands. Few weeks ago, I also created one. I cut out the pig's head, added some blood, then merged the image into a photo of my mini leopard. I send this image to one of my best friends, as a surprise birthday gift to her. The next day I received a phone call from a ... senior or very senior ? marketing manager of a fashion brand, asking me to sell the copyright of the image to them. He said, "the image is very impressive, so young and creative." and i quickly answered "No ..."

These days the little angels are all worshipped by the adults.

未來世界的某一日。
自從牠在我的訊息螢幕出現之後，這頭野豬的醜臉差不多無處不在，T恤、手袋、鞋 ... 及人體。對了，最近牠成了那些中年女人和男士們流行的紋身圖案。那些世界設計師精英似乎都從同一隻豬取得靈感，生產了很多依那些國際品牌定義，非常富有獨特風格的「豬」作品。幾個星期前，我也創作了一件。我裁出豬頭，加上一點血，然後將影像和我的迷你花豹相片合併。我把影像傳給我的一位好朋友，想給她一份驚嚇的生日禮物。一天之後竟然收到一位自稱某時裝品牌的高級...還是非常高級？的市場經理的電話，說想買掉我那張作品的版權。他還說：「我的作品令人印象深刻、年輕而且有創意。」當時我一口拒絕了....

今時今日，成年人都很崇拜小天使。

Suddenly a wild boar appears ...

2006-11-15T18:41:00.000-08:00

The primitive people are wielding sharp knives, vow to torture the thousand-year-old tree to death. One of them who behaves most crazily, stabs the knife in hand straight into the trunk. Sap is pouring out along the knife handle and his hairy hand. An exaggerated painful cry burst out, from the civilized crowd beyond the restricted zone.
All giant shopping malls, public squares and open areas around the world are crowded with people. They are holding their breath, keep their eyes on the big screens in front. The others are either sitting in the coffee shops or sofa at home, watching their mobile players. At this moment, civilized people all over the world are all looking at the same screen. I just wake up, as usual turn on the message wall, so become one of them. The image on the screen is not so attractive, well, just a vast expanse of grassland standing a big old tree. The content provider has arranged different angle and distance shots for the audiences to choose. The news art director professionally selects only the most funny and emotional faces on the spot. Background music and sound effects are also perfectly added. However, this time the event developes so slowly and the tree cannot move, same image repeats again and again, audiences all got bored. I take a yawn.
I'm still halfly asleep, so too lazy to turn off the screen. My coffee-cup sized "mini leopard" sits on my belly, gazing at the screen, seems so intrigued. How could it be? It's just a laboratory created mini pet for civilized people to play, should not has any feeling toward its ancestors' habitat -- the African Savanna. Thirty minutes has passed, the tree keeps standing still. The whole world is like frozen. Suddenly a wild boar appears on the screen. Since it is too close to the camera. Firstly I see a big big nose, then two sharp tooth, a round belly .... In the midway, it stops for a while to eat the little sharp pink flower on the ground. Finally, its worm-like wagging tail is passing by the camera. The whole picture is so funny. I burst into laughter.
The voice-over narration is explaining the background of this thousand-year-old tree which rose to fame overnight. It's boring but several lines interest me very much.
"All inhabitants of the permanent green zone enjoys free education, medical, housing and food provided by the world government. The children there can play under the big trees all day round. The adults do not need to work. 99% of them are artists and writers. Yes, of course, no any construction work is allowed in the green zone. Even moving a stone with a diameter larger than 30 cm requires prior permission from the world parliament. Since the Green Bill passed 80 years ago, not a single permission has been granted. Yesterday a bunch of primitive people won the district election, their leader could not wait to carry out his promise at once. They're going to destory the oldest tree in the world ... "

These days all people in our heaven-like new world are living in harmony. The "professionals" look down on each other, but they're willing to donate a small proportion of their weaths to support this new world. "Free persons" live off social welfare, but they work hard on all kinds of artistic creations. The "little angels" (people aged below 18) are all worshipped by the adults and living in their own little worlds. The machines do all the production works. No one is superior to and cares about others, so no conflicts ... except when they all got an urge to possess a little angel.

未來世界的某一日。
那群原始人個個手拿著尖刀，誓要將千年古樹虐待至死。其中一個特別瘋狂的，率先衝前將尖刀直插入樹幹。樹汁即時源刀柄和長滿毛的原始人的手滴下。一陣淒厲的慘叫聲，是封鎖線外那群文明人發出的。
世界各地的廣場、空地、巨型購物商場的大堂都擠滿了人，個個皆平息靜氣，定眼望著面前的大螢幕。其餘的人也拿著手提播放器，坐在咖啡室或是家中的沙發椅，觀看著同一樣的畫面。我才剛睡醒，習慣性地開啟了家中的訊息牆，自然也成了眾多無聊的文明人之一。畫面其實一點都不吸引，不過是非洲一片大草原上的一棵千年古樹。資訊供應商已經安排了由遠至近、不同角度的畫面讓觀眾選擇，偶然又將鏡頭轉到封鎖線外的示威人群。新聞美術總監很有技巧地只捕捉那些誇張、有趣的人物表情特寫，還加上即場配樂。可惜那棵樹不會動，事件又發展得那麼慢，畫面重複又重複，難免令觀眾覺得納悶。
我打了個呵欠，因為仍處於半睡醒狀態，懶得把螢幕關掉。身型只有咖啡杯大小的迷你花豹蹲坐在我的肚皮上，頭也不動，對螢幕畫面似乎很感興趣。怎可能呢？牠不過是實驗室培養出來供文明人飼養的迷你寵物，照理不會對牠祖先居住的地方--非洲大草原產生任何感情。三十分鐘又過去了，那棵樹依然動也不動，看的人以為世界也停頓了。忽然一頭小野豬施施然在鏡頭面前走過，因為很近鏡頭的關係，首先看見很大的豬鼻，尖尖的長牙，然後是圓大的肚脯。中途牠還停下來嚼食地上那朵刺眼粉紅色的小野花，一副悠然自得的樣子。最後是像條小蟲般扭動的豬尾在鏡頭前掠過。因為構圖實在很趣怪，我忍不住「卡」一聲笑了出來。
畫面配上了沉悶的資料性旁白，是關於那棵非常幸運，一夜間成了全球焦點的千年古樹的故事。其中的幾句引起了我的興趣。
「綠色區域的原居民都可以享用由世界政府提供的免費教育、福利、房屋及食物。這裡的小孩終日可以在大樹下玩耍。大人亦無須工作，他們差不多全部是藝術家或作家。當然啦，在綠色區內根本不容許有任何建設。即使是搬動一塊直徑大於30cm的石頭也要事先獲得環球議會批准。自從八十年前綠色法案通過之後，根本沒有一項申請獲得批准。昨日一班原始人贏得了地區選舉，他們的領袖即時要兌現承諾。他們要徹底消滅在綠色區內全世界最老的千年古樹 ...要令它在極度痛苦中慢慢死去 ...」

今時今日人類在這個近乎天堂的新世界都活得很和諧。「專業人士」互相看不起大家，卻願意將少部份財富捐獻出來維持這個新世界。「自由人」靠世界政府提供的福利維生，每日忙碌地從事不同類型的藝術創作。「小天使」( * 看看我之前的日記 ) 受盡成年人的崇拜，終日活在自我的小世界之中。機械則負責全部的生產工作。這裡沒有人是在其他人之上，或者會關心其他人的存在，所以根本沒有衝突 ... 除了當他們都對一個小天使產生了佔有的慾望 ...

My Mini Leopard 迷你小花豹 !

2006-11-15T00:56:00.000-08:00

My long awaited "mini leopard" finally arrived! I ordered it from MiniPets nearly 6 months ago, until this morning the courier finally brought it to my home. Its packaging's already been very attractive, a milky white square box with round corners. The sand matte surface is made up of some special rubber material, so smooth and slippery. But how to open it? search for a while ... ooh, get it ... simply put my thumb on the green spot, have my finger-print checked, the cover would automatically release.See, my "mini leopard" is sleeping peacefully on the greenish artificial sea-weed fibres. It's a mature "cat" but just has the size of a coffee cup, so cute and lovely. Touch it with my finger tip, is like a spongy, i can even feel its heartbeats. I thought of buying a "mimi zebra" or this year trendy hit "mini elephant", in the end couldn't resist the beauty of a leopard's body and spotted skin. Remember last month some extremists placed several bombs in the heardquater of MiniPets, many scientists were killed on the spot. I was worrying they cannot fix my order. Now the only thing I could do is to wait my "mini leopard" wake up. Turn on the "info wall". As I expected, it's full of "welcome screens" from my friends, mother, father and younger sister. I know, they just want to hear more about my "mini pet"from me, but one small square draw my attention. It's showing a sharp cone tower, the sky behind hundred fireworks explode. festival celebration? Enlarge the screen to see, ooh ... it's about the World Parliament passing a new law. These days the civilized adults are all trying to use their powers or any ways they thought of to please Us, the little angels +. However we have long indulged in all kinds of material desires, to be frankly, are not so care about their efforts. The news is repeating again and again, and I gradually fall asleep.

+ "Little Angels" is a term defined by a top sociologist 20 years ago, refered to young people aged below 18 living in the civilized region nowadays. The advance of science & technology and sharp decrease of population in the civilized world during the past 60 years, have made "resources per person" figure reach an unimaginably high. As a result everybody strives for perfection and could not tolerate any flaw. The adults are not willing to have offsprings until they found a perfect mate, that end up a vicious circle. In an ageing civilized society, the adults developed a complex feeling of worship toward the youth and are all eager for recognition and compliments from the youth. In their minds, the young people are as lovely and respectable as a "little angel".

已講了多次想親自寫一篇虛擬日記，因為沒有人迫，拖了又拖，現在終於弄好了(已登記版權)。玩玩而已 ...

我的迷你花豹...今天實在興奮呢，大清早速遞員便送來了那隻我足足等了半年的迷你花豹。MINIPets公司的包裝設計已經很吸引，是一個圓角正四方形的奶白色箱。外層是特製磨砂橡膠物料，摸上手的感覺滑溜溜的。奇怪了，箱子看不見任何縫隙，是怎樣打開的？找尋了好一會，啊，原來把拇指頭放在那棵青草綠色的小圓點，核對指紋之後，箱的蓋面便會自動鬆開。急急拿走箱蓋，撥開像頭髮絲般的綠色人造海草纖維，終於見到了牠的真身。迷你花豹只有一隻咖啡杯大小，已經成年。牠正甜睡著﹝還是麻醉藥力未過？﹞，樣子蠻可愛呢。我用指尖輕輕一觸，軟綿綿的感覺很特別。本來我想訂購一隻幾個月大的，但聽說迷你動物的抵抗力都較弱，未成年的很容易生病。我也考慮過買迷你斑馬或者今年流行的迷你大象，不過始終覺得花豹的形態最優美。這刻真的有點夢想成真的興奮。記得上個月MINIPets的總部才給激進分子放了幾個炸彈，死了幾十個科學家，當時還擔心他們未能如期交貨。好了，現在惟有等牠慢慢醒來。開啟了訊息牆。果然是迫滿了來自我的好朋友、爸爸、媽媽及妹妹的問候畫面。哼，他們不過是想打探小花豹的消息，倒是其中的一格畫面吸引了我的注意。高高的尖塔，背後的天空綻放著七彩的煙花，是甚麼節日慶祝？放大來看，原來又是環球議會通過了甚麼新法例，差不多每個月也有一次，每次也有不同的名堂。現今文明世界的成年人都嘗試利用他們的權力或各種他們想像得到的方法，去討我們這班「小天使」+ 的歡心。可惜我們早已沉醉於各種物質的欲望之中，老實說，對他們的努力一點都不關心。訊息重複又重複地播放著，有點催眠的功效，而我亦不知不覺間睡著了 ...

+「小天使」是二十年前一位頂尖社會學家定義的一個名詞，指目前居住在文明區域的所有十八歲以下的年輕人。因為近六十年科技進步加上人口急劇下降，令到「每人可享資源」數字到達一個難以想像的高位。於是每個人都追求完美，接受不了任何的瑕疵。成年人在未找到完美的伴侶之前都不願意有一下代，結果造成一個惡性循環。在人口老化的文明社會之中，成年人對年輕人產生了一種複雜的崇拜情緒。他們都渴望得到年輕人的認同和讚美。在他們的心目中，年輕人就如「小天使」般可愛及值得尊敬。

Absolute Freedom Bill Passed ...絕對自由法案通過 !

2006-11-15T00:32:00.000-08:00

After a marathon debate which lasted for 80 uninterrupted hours, the World Parliament finally passed the controversial Bill of Absolute Freedom by 301 to 200 this morning. The main principle of the bill is all people in this world shall have the right to live the life they want+. No governments, legal entities, public or private media or religion leaders shall impose or make any laws or create any social pressure that would infringe this basic right of human beings directly or indirectly.
From that moment on (today 1:40 AM, the time this bill was ratified++ globally), the law of marriage in all countries automatically became invalid. The marriage status records of all people in all identity and legal docu. databases worldwide will be deleted. Also children who have reached full cognitive development (the actual age is case dependent) have the right to name their own names including their family names, and choose either to live with their parents or in any government approved caring center they like. Their parents shall not intervene their choices by any means. The law would not ban any people from holding wedding ceremony, children calling their parents mother and ather, but all these are no longer legal matters.
This morning thousands of supporters of the bill gathered in front of the gate of the "Liberty Tower " which is the headquarter of the World Parliament and the tallest building in the world to celebrate their victory. They all said it is a great leap in the history of human rights which makes all people can live their life at free will and creates a new world very close to heaven. They also named it the "Ultimate Freedom". However, opponents argued marriage and family unit are vital to the preservation of morals and civilization. This bill will demolish the foundation of all social values and make this world too close to hell.

+ provided they are not doing any acts which are against the public interest. 他們的行為沒有違反公眾利益.
++ became part of the world constitution 成為世界憲法一部份.
