今年暑假真是雨震申啊，都堪比黄梅了，下雨下到鸡毛菜7元钱一斤，菜比肉贵，算是和国际接轨了。不过由于本人人品杰出，雨基本上是上班之后开始下，下班之前就停，因而情绪总体还算稳定。

最近神奇的事情实在是多。先是去寺里吃素面，发现和尚的日子果然是滋润，里面人头攒动，热闹程度不亚于南京路的，而且摆个箱子就有无数的人往里塞钱。想想自己拼死拼活才赚这么点钱实在是自惭形秽啊。

再有是看了一个名为《建国大业》演员国籍表的帖子，大开眼界，堂堂13亿人的大国最终要一群老外来帮忙完成建国大业大概是空前绝后了吧。

接着是WTO的裁决，新闻里看得云里雾里，到WTO的网站上一查，原来是投诉中国对文化产品的进口限制，这个就是美国人的不对了，怎么哪壶不开提哪壶呀，难怪外交部的发炎人要深表遗憾了。

最后是Twitter上看到了一条颇有总结性的话：Ma de in China（注意空格）很好地解释了这个国度上的种种神奇事件。

Three people are sitting in a waiting room outside the office of the personnel manager in a large corporation.  There’s a mathematician, a statistician and an economist, all waiting to be interviewed for a job.  The mathematician is called in for his job interview and after half an hour is asked the final question: “What is two plus two?”

 

The mathematician’s reply is immediate and crisp: “Four!”

 

“Exactly four?!”

 

“Yes.  Exactly, precisely, specifically four!”

 

The personnel manager thanks him and calls in the statistician.  Pretty much the same procedure follows and again the final question is asked.

 

“Well”, says the statistician, “statistically four.  Yes, emmmm, in an endless series of ‘two-plus-two’ the probability is high that the answer is four.”

 

The statistician is thanked for her time and the statistician is replaced by the economist.  Again, the question is asked: “What is two plus two?”

 

The economist looks around furtively, walks over to the window and pulls the blinds and then checks to see that the office door is properly closed.  He then walks over to the manager, leans over close to his ear and says in a whisper: “How much do you want it to be?!”

      最近都是盛世奇观，先是500年一遇日全食，然后下暴雨也都是百年级别的，前天是70年一遇，昨天是100年一遇，这几个星期算是没白活了。

      反正下雨的天偶是天天出去的，不过运气倒不错，路上这会儿都是暴雨间歇，没有像去年那样把手机淋坏，不过路况实在遭殃，为了明年的SB会路都被挖开了，下水道多多少少被泥浆堵塞了，积水非常可观，可以赶上小时候在淮海路淌水的水平了。
