Trabajador incansable. No hace tanto que puso punto y final a su última gira europea y ya trabaja codo con codo con Brendan O’Brien en darle los últimos retoques a un nuevo trabajo de estudio cuya publicación se anuncia para comienzos del proximo año. De acuerdo al sitio web de Bruce Springsteen, el nuevo álbum del ídolo americano, grabado en compañía de la E Street Band, se llamará “Working On a Dream” y verá la ...

上周去了武义，寝室里的几个同学聚会。来之前没看天气预报，穿了件T恤就过去了，幸亏壮壮在走之前给我塞了件外套，才没被冻死。同学们都没有变，讲话的语气都一模一样。当然，大家都老了。某些同学对我的装扮表示觉得有装嫩的嫌疑，我冷静地回答：我不是装，我本来就嫩。但是心里还是有点心虚，问老秦跟壮壮，是不是三十以上就不能穿这样的衣服了，这两人因为太爱我，所以一致跟我说，你这样太好看了！在同寝室的同学里，我结婚的最迟，当别人已经老夫老妻的时候，我还是蜜月期，跟一个处在蜜月期里的女人大约是没什么好讨论的，因为我觉得壮壮当老公当得十二分的称职，所以别人对婚姻有所抱怨的时候，总是有一把无耻的声音跳出来说不。以致落了个“秀恩爱”的头街。不容易。其实生活也不全是晴天，我跟壮壮也会吵闹赌气不满意对方，可是记得这些不好有什么用。自己先把自己给气死了，划不来。再说，你先看看自己，是不是这样完美。他脾气不好，难道你就好到哪里去？选择了婚姻，就应该相互忍让。即使吵架，他不先低头，就你先低头呗，这有什么，又不缺块肉。为什么一定要讲老公坏话才是王道呢。他平常干家务，生日送花，我做的菜不管好坏，他都赞好吃。这样就够啦。我不是女权主义者，一定要怎么怎么样，他要不做家务，那就叫钟点工，不送花送钱也是可以的，至于他要不喜欢我烧的菜，那咱们就到外边去吃。我觉得结婚迟也有好处，大约对婚姻的企盼值就低一点，然后容易满足。一个人的时光我已经过够了，我喜欢两个人在一块儿。过的是生活，说的是琐事。我的博客不可避免地走上了家庭主妇的路子。周五的时候银泰十周年庆，我英明神武地让壮壮晚饭也不要吃，先去挑裤子。自打我胖了以后，我以前的牛仔裤都已经穿不下了，近期我安于现状，并未准备瘦身，所以，迫不得已去买新裤子。LEE满400减160，我心惊胆颤地让营业员拿了26跟27的来，然后眼一闭，穿了以后觉得刚好，自己不敢看问壮壮是多少码的，知道是26了以后，大为开心，然后也鼓动壮壮挑了条，再去买了衣服跟袜子凑数，算是大胜而归。待我们挑好付好款已经七点多了，人开始多了起来，因为参加牌子多，不少营业员站在椅子上察看地形，太可乐了，跟个瞭望员一样。等我们吃好饭重返战场的时候，人山人海啊，我的头开始痛起来了，可是手上还有80元的赠券要用掉，本来想给家里老人买件羊绒衫的，可是减了以后还是挺贵的，没舍得下手，我们真是一对不孝子。决定以后碰上特惠品的时候再看看。然后去买了一个88元的帆布环保袋结束血拼（超市才十几块钱！），中间在花小吃券的时候还碰到了希嘉跟他女朋友，把游戏币送给他们了，算是胜利完成任务。

This is not the first time, and it won’t be the last, that conservatives who abandon their principles go down in flames to liberals who run to the middle (but invariably govern to the Left). Reagan saw it happen in 1975, described what was wrong, and prescribed the way for true conservatism to be resurgent. The following is a long speech, but every word is worth reading, so I present it here in its entirety: ...

Nemrégiben megtanultuk, hogy írást lopni nem szép dolog, mai bejegyzésünk pedig rávilágít arra, hogy egyesek szerint az interneten népszerűsíteni sem szép dolog más tartalmát, főleg amennyiben a SanomaBpről van szó. Ugyan az alant szereplő úriember egyszerűen csak emós és nincs semmi köze feltételezhetően a Sanoma kiadóhoz, de azért elgondolkodtató, hogy hazánk harmadik legnagyobb online kiadójának a jogi policyje milyen kitételeket tartalmaz... A történet... Tegnap este éppen rendezgettem kedvenc Harcsa Veronika rajongói Last.fm oldalam, sőt épp ...

Alaska Govenor Sarah Palin was in Lakewood, Ohio today - just a few miles from where Barack Obama and Bruce Springsteen addressed a crowd of 80,000 less than 24 hours ago. According to this report from WCPN (audio included), about 1500 showed up to hear the GOP VP candidate: As morning clouds dissipated and the sun broke through at Lakewood Park, this crowd of about 15 hundred McCain/Palin supporters were there to see Palin, and ...

I just got the latest REI catalog, the “Wish It” holiday version for Christmas 2008. I always like to thumb through the catalog to see what REI picks as the top gear of the season. Sometimes I agree and other times, I don’t, but since I’m not a retailer, I don’t have to push what I’ve got on the shelf. So, back to the current REI catalog. I made it to the ski page with ...

Tony Adam's side lose late as Emile Heskey snatches the win for Wigan.

The Boss has released a new video and a free download to celebrate Halloween. “If you grew up in central or south Jersey, you grew up with the “‘Jersey Devil’,” says Springsteen. “Here’s a little musical Halloween treat. Have fun!”

There are times when your eyes start to glaze over at the sight of yet another pseudo-historic, boxy brick rowhouse going up on the streets of Philadelphia. But the latest offering from the Onion Flats collective guarantees the reverse effect. Your eyes should pop when you get a look of its new eight-unit Thin Flats on Laurel Street in Northern Liberties.I reviewed the project in my column on Friday, and took the liberty of calling ...

The Gift of Spiritual Experiences is an excerpt from a book entitled Mine Errand from the Lord: Quotations and Teachings from Boyd K. Packer on Meridian Magazine. I personally appreciate the timeliness of this wise counsel: It is not wise to continually talk of unusual spiritual experiences. They are to be guarded with care and shared only when the Spirit itself prompts you to use them to the blessing of others. I am ever mindful ...
