古人云：春雨贵如二锅头！
俺今天终于明白了古人的意思。上面是俺在春雨中漫步100米后的成果。很庆幸没有被活埋了。
根据俺的理解，人们，尤其是劳动人民是有足够理由喜欢春雨的，尤其是北京的春雨的。
     正在修葺茅草屋的老伯喜欢春雨，因为它只要把茅草往上一铺，剩下的由春雨完成，保证和混凝土一样结实。
     正在植树的小朋友们喜欢春雨，因为他们只要把树放在坑里，春雨会把坑填平，不过小心树苗被活埋。
     正在建房的工人师傅喜欢春雨，因为他们每五分钟就可以少用一层砖，太划得来了，不过也有盖的不如埋的快的危机。
     正在露宿的乞丐朋友喜欢春雨，因为他们穿的终于和大家一样“干净了”，并且衣服变得更保暖了。
     俺也高兴了，因为今天轮到俺老婆洗衣服了，没有理由说俺的衣服还可以穿一天了。。。。。。

    列位看官，今晨小人一出楼门，突然出现强烈的高原反应。其中原委请我慢慢道来。
    在北京生活的同志今天恐怕都有这样的感觉：“忽如一夜春风来，四处都被黄沙盖！”要说这天降沙尘，对我这个班老北京来说，倒也见怪不怪。不过今天仔细研究之下，忽有心得。
    根据我的最新研究成果，北京所在的华北平原不是一个黄淮海的冲积平原，而是一个堆积平原。that is to say: 这个平原是风刮来的。
    经小人用游标卡尺仔细测量，北京昨夜降尘量至少有0.1毫米，局部地区有大尘~~~。极其保守估算，一年怎么也有1毫米了，1000年就是1米阿。北京海拔不过10余米，想来有个万八千年就堆起来了。
    不过今天北京这海拔长得实在太快了，对于小弟这个习惯于在平原生活的人来说，出现高原反应不足为奇阿~~~~。

SURVEY QUESTION:
Supposing you are on a boat with your mother, your spouse and your child. Suddenly the boat begins to sink and you determine you can only save one of them. Who do you save?

Do you have an answer yet? Most people answer quite immediately. Click here for the survey results.


According to survey results, 60% of Americans save their spouse, 40% save their children. The reasons offered go along the lines of:

Save Spouse- "My spouse is my partner for life and I can have more children", or
Save Child- "Children represent the future so it is vital to protect them first. Probably, my spouse would support this decision".
However, among Asian cultures, or Americans of recent Asian descent, the answer is nearly 100% to save the mother. The rationale I have heard offered is:

Save Mother- "My mother gave me life, I owe her my life. I can marry again, I can have more children, but I cannot replace her or otherwise repay the debt I owe her".
So we have two very different views.

　　 现在的网吧客人98%都他妈的傻子，开机不会，输入法切换不会，字母大小写转换不会，玩私服登陆器怎么用不会，QQ开语音不会，进了游戏不会退出，私服服务器关了说我机子问题，**，老子真想一把捏死他，捏死再揉成一团，再搓成麻花，放油锅里炸，再拿出来一脚踩的粉碎  
　　　　语音聊天不会开MIC,说网吧耳机是坏的.  
　　　　看电影嫌不是普通话的!  
　　　　问我:"网管,有没有毛片看?"我说没,他怪电影不全!  
　　　　QQ登陆不上说机器不好!老子跑过去一看,密码不对,那丫的还问我密码多少!!!!  
　　　　还有一个更厉害的小妞,.接了一个不认识的网友的视频,喊我过去,问我视频里的人是谁!!!

　　　　打个CS别人放颗烟雾弹，他遭闪了，狂喊：网管死机了……  
　TM的，前天一个　MM聊QQ问：我怎么打字的。 我问她：你不会打字吗。 她说：会。我说：哪你打字就行了(同时帮她调好输入法)。一会又叫我，说：网管，我怎么打不出来字啊。我说：你要打什么字打不出来，她告诉我说：你先打个"你好吧"，我帮她打了。然后你们知道她怎么说的吗。“你别走了。就坐在我边上帮我打字吧。”TM的，长的全然就是一个恐龙。今天有问我，网管我这里怎么没有QQ币呢，你帮我下载点QQ币……我靠那玩意要是能下载～！我他妈地就不用上班了～
