家里发来消息，澳大利亚工党和绿党在这次大选中惨败！联盟党似乎已经稳操胜券，澳大利亚总理下星期一移主。 Frankly speaking, I personally expect Labor and Green win their elections, though the ruling party Labor has done so bad jobs in the past years, cause I think they are still our representative s of working people. Coalition looks too right winged, they are representative s of rich people.
下班路上，收音机里尽是关于选举的报道。NPR 的评论员引了O8昨晚说的一段话： Democracy in a nation of 300 million can be noisy and messy and complicated. We have our own opinions, each of us has deeply held beliefs and when we go through tough times, when we make big decisions as a country, it necessarily stirs passions, it stirs up controversy. That won't change after tonight and it shouldn't. These arguments we have are a mark of our liberty ... 接下来就提到了E. B. White 关于民主的一段议论， "The Meaning of Democracy" . While working at The New Yorker, author E.B. White was asked by the Writer’s War Board, in 1943, to write a sentiment to the national effort. Here is what he wrote: We received a letter from the Writers’ War Board the other day asking for a statement on ‘The Meaning of Democracy.’ It is presumably our duty to comply with such a request, and it is certainly our pleasure. Surely the Board knows what democracy is. It is the line that forms on the right. It is the don’t in don’t shove. It is the hole in the stuffed shirt through which the sawdust slowly trickles, the dent in the high hat. Democracy is the recurrent suspicion that more than half of the people are right more than half the time. It is the feeling of privacy in the voting booths, the feeling of communion in the libraries, the feeling of vitality everywhere. Democracy is the letter to the editor. Democracy is the score at the beginning of the ninth. It is an idea which hasn’t been disproved yet, a song the words of which have not gone bad. It’s the mustard on the hot dog and the cream in the rationed coffee. Democracy is a request from a War Board, in the middle of the morning in the middle of a war, wanting to know what democracy is. (E.B. White, July 3, 1943) E. B. White,July 11, 1899 – October 1, 1985, was an American writer. He was a contributor to The New Yorker magazine and a co-author of the English language style guide, The Elements of Style , which is commonly known as "Strunk White." He also wrote books for children, including Charlotte's Web and Stuart Little. (From Wiki )
今天一打开博客，就看到了刘为立同学的留言：广哥，刘为立前来探望！广哥别来无恙！问嫂子及儿子好！我惊喜莫名，立马赶往他的博客。好一个多情的男儿，好几篇文章都把我感动得含着泪珠。随后看到下面一篇，便匆匆写下了留言：转载你的文章，好吗？因为我太盼望中国的这一天！ 他博文的题目叫 爱尔兰VIP，写于2007年5月7日： 5月3日，店里正忙着。忽然来了一大帮穿制服的人，很礼貌地要求我们到店门口去。我们一是一时还没有弄明白是怎么回事；二是店里有客人，就没有出去。不一会，一群人前呼后拥地簇拥着一个50来岁精神焕发的男人进到我们店里，同我和前台医助亲切握手。当我们还丈二和尚摸不着头脑的时候，店里的一个客人告诉我们： He is a very very very imp ortant person in Ireland! He is Prime Minister ! 这个人竟是爱尔兰总理！！！ Why does he come to our shop? He is saying HELLO to everyone! 今年5月24日是爱尔兰五年一度的大选，街道两旁的电灯杆上早就挂满了各个候选人的大幅照片。 没想到总理先生也亲自四处拉选票！ 他们离开后，我不由得又摸了一下和总理握过的手。 就像左手摸右手，一点感觉也没有！ 呵呵！ 刘为立的博客 http://blog.sina.com.cn/happyliuweili 聊博一笑 崇尚以情造文有感而发，鄙视以文造情无病呻吟。 http://lwlmswy.blog.163.com/
