A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.
喜樂的心乃是良藥;憂傷的靈使骨枯乾。
(箴言17:22)

夕陽無限好,日日有黃昏

夕陽無限好,日日有黃昏
「向晚意不適, 驅車登古原;夕陽無限好,只是近黃昏。」李商隱的這首詩千百年來不知引起多少人的共鳴,卻又不知撩起多少人的自憐自嘆。詩的意境好,只是太消極了。其實天天有夕陽,日日有黃昏!不是嗎?

唐人街雙俠


一個剪了陸軍裝的男人走過來打招呼

嗨,Robin  您好,許久不見啦!

看清楚,原來是以前駐守唐人街,外號「知更鳥」的朱警長。

〝呵呵,是您,朱 SIR!還在警民關係科?〞

〝轉了去財務罪案科啦。噢,告訴您,我和您兒子經常有合作。〞

〝是嗎?〞

〝才不久前,有個老人家在唐人街要跳樓尋死,我和您兒子奉召到場,我負責談判,您兒子負責把他救了下來。〞

工作上的事情,兒子甚少告訴家人,是因為日日如是,見怪不怪吧?

忽然想起朱 SIR 以前的拍檔

〝蝙蝠俠怎麽啦?〞

〝他改了行做律師啦!〞

還有多少人記得二十年前的唐人街雙俠 Batman and Robin

"Officers were called to the roof of a five-story building by a woman who said her boyfriend had climbed to the top and was threatening to jump off. When they arrived, they found a highly agitated 32 year old man pacing back and forth near the edge.

Attempts to ease him off the roof failed and the Emergency Response Team was called. Constables Justin Leung and Cesar Young climbed the old fire escape ladder to the roof and saw a man in stocking feet, jeans and a tank-top, who was paranoid that police were going to grab him.

The stand-off went on for hours in the broiling sun as the temperature on the tar roof climbed above 30 degrees. After about eight hours of patient and exhausting negotiating, Constable Leung took the opportunity to lunge when the man momentarily looked away. In seconds, the rest of the team on the roof piled on and the man’s life was saved."

梁兄:

以上一節新聞相信只是令郎每日工作的一個片段:三十度高溫,八個小時對峙,最終拯救了又一條生命! Emergency Response Team 既是反恐的飛虎隊又是救人於水火的救援隊,這是真正「俠」的表現,值得致敬!

Does anyone know who was the first Chinese Police Officer in the Vancouver City Police?

老朽兄:

溫哥華傳媒對自殺活動通常不予報導,您搜尋到的這段新聞可以算是漏網之魚。

多謝您的分享!

逸名君:

根據網上資料,溫哥華的第一名華裔警察是 1978 年加入的葉拉瑞。但是這個資料是錯誤的!溫哥華的第一個華警應該是 1968 年入伍,我們大家認識的尤金 Eugene Ko。尤金兄當時是便衣偵探,服務了約半年後才轉職皇家騎警。

虽然从来没吃过罚单,但行车时若看到有警察,不知哪根筋总会忍不住发紧一下---怕警察 :)
