Acutally not. Somehow it just reminds me of those old days back in China. Appology if I offended some one with beautiful intentions. - Re: 寰佺ǹ鍚簨posted on 10/05/2006
倒退到中学时代，我一定能写出诗来， 因为那个时候对两河流域文化比较有兴趣。现在兴趣都在墨西哥了。美国怎么不打墨西哥，也好让我写点屈原一样悲愤的长诗 - Re: 寰佺ǹ鍚簨posted on 10/05/2006
这个值得好好研究，赶快给福克斯总统通个气，要向英勇的查韦斯总统看齐，与小布什誓不两立。
说他们浪漫的聂鲁达已经仙逝，伟大的马尔克斯又宣布封笔，为了给拉丁人民留下传世之作，也给老方一条出路当屈原转世吧。再说了，以色列阿拉伯为了几千年前的地契都打不停手，那几百年前的德州加州的帐该怎么算？
