星期三,晴。
收到尤金兄電話...
「冇事做,咁好天氣,我嚟車您出去走走好嗎?」
「好!」
於是我們去了 UBC 的 Beaty Biodiersity Museum 蹓躂,參觀了在那裡擺設的藍鯨骸骨。
這骸骨其實算不了甚麼古物,牠的遺體在 1987 年出現在
Prince Edward Island 的海灘,2008 年才弄到這裡來。
藍鯨被認為是地球上體型最大的動物,先知約拿在魚腹中渡過三日三夜的那尾大魚應該就是牠的祖先...
想到這裡,禁不住對這條魚骨肅然起敬!
離開的時候,適逢大學下課,滿街滿巷都是年輕人。
走在他們中間,自己的腳步也輕快起來。
尤金忽有所思,對我說:
「您有冇留心到,呢度啲後生仔女大部份都係黑髮黃皮膚架?」

Robin,
Your story today reminded me of a tale about Jonah and the whale:
A little girl was talking to her teacher about whales. The teacher said it was physically impossible for a whale to swallow a human because even though a whale is a very large mammal, its throat is very small.
The little girl stated that Jonah was swallowed by a whale. The teacher reiterated that a whale could not swallow a human, it was impossible. The little girl said, "When I get to heaven I will ask Jonah".
The teacher asked, "What if Jonah went to hell?"
The little girl replied, "Then you ask him!"
