Plan

I need to get many things done, so I need plans.
I need to break things down, prioritize them, considering the resouce and risk, give timeline so I need to write action plans.
As I have several action plans in agenda, all of which are important
I need to break them down, prioritize them, considering the resouce and risk, give timeline
Which means
I need to write an action plan of action plans.

Good old time, for a friend.

 
大概十年前的样子,我跟我的一个大学同学,两人挤在我的Cyrix120+ 电脑前面,装完Windows95,然后把同在一张盗版光盘里的MTV放了一遍又一遍。以我们当时的英语能力,完全听不懂歌里唱些什么,但是依旧很享受这一小段MTV里惬意轻松的氛围,同时对着身形高大但是声线细腻的女主唱啧啧称奇。
 
事隔十年的今天,我才知道那个女主唱名叫Edie Brickell,唱的歌是"Good Times".
 
信不信由大家,这几年来我的心愿之一就是把这首歌找出来。随着盗版Win95的绝迹,对那首歌的旋律和女主唱的外形的略微印象,以及和Windows 95的联系,是我仅存的线索和希望。我曾在google中搜过好几次 "Windows 95 歌",但每次都无功而返。但是今天突发奇想,在wikipedia里搜 Windows 95, 然后在结果页面中查"music",迅速锁定了这一行: Two music videos were included on the install CD-ROM for Windows 95: Weezer's "Buddy Holly" and Edie Brickell's "Good Times".
 
接下来的事情就是跟着直觉走,我打开youtube,查找"Edie Brickell good times",于是有了现在我blog首页上的这支mtv.
 
于是十年前的那一幕仿佛又回到了眼前,我对着电脑一遍又一遍的放这首歌,稍有不同的是Cryix 120+ 兼容机换成了笔记本,那个当年坐我边上的朋友,此刻正在上海某处考国内驾照,以他现如今的英语水平,听懂歌词该不会是什么问题。
 
You don't even have to try
It comes easy for you
The way you move is so appealing
It could make me cry
Go out driving with my friends
In Bobby's big old beat up car
I'm with a lot of people then
I wonder where you are

Good times, bad times, give me some of that
Good times, bad times, give me some of that
Good times, bad times

I don't want to say goodbye
Don't want to walk you to the door
I spend a little time with you
I want a little more

Good times, bad times, give me some of that
Good times, bad times, give me some of that
Good times, bad times, give me some of that
