Miss spindly super weird coming at you. @ Hidden Pirate Island

第一次聽到這首歌是在學生時期，朋友家的頂樓加蓋，我們離忠孝東路地面上的繁華有段距離，夏天晚上溫溫熱熱的，配上香菸和啤酒。

背景音樂就是Depeche Mode 的Dream On
（本來寫Depende Mode，小葉發現我寫錯字，留著吧，挺可愛）

主唱Dave Gahan低沈迷幻地唱著人類最根本的情感需求⋯

As your bony fingers close around me
Long and spindly death becomes me
Heaven can you see what I see

Hey you pale and sickly child
You're death and living reconciled
Been walking home a crooked mile

Paying debt to karma you party for a living
What you take won't kill you
But careful what you're giving

字裡行間盡是絕望也渴望被愛但又深怕被傷害拒絕。有時候，一段起手式不好的感情本身就是自我毀滅的預言，感覺「受傷害」似乎比什麼都沒感覺來得好些，感情的烈士都軟弱無力的歸責給輪迴和命運。

愛情跟藥一樣，能治療也能上癮，熱戀時期的多巴胺讓顏色都繽紛的起來，突然停止的戒斷期，比沒有還要難耐，這首歌的混音編曲製造的氛圍就是上癮後的慵懶迷幻

There's no time for hesitating
Pain is ready, pain is waiting

Can you feel a little love
Can you feel a little love
Dream on dream on

So we went across the famous Kazurabashi bridge today... it is special because it is made ENTIRELY OUT OF VINES!! 🍂🍂 And look, it's really scary because the holes between each foot plank is quite far apart! Took me a lot of courage to let go of the sides hahaha!! #clingtomikefordearlife It's so funny after crossing the bridge there was an auntie who was crying coz she found the bridge so scary lol and a little dog who refused to go on the bridge point blank (totes understandable for the dog. It's spindly legs will go right through the holes). Thanks @blackflybird for the photo even though there was a finger on the top right corner hahahaha but it's because she was clinging on to my phone which could possibly fall to its death in the river below and I appreciate that it didn't happen 😂😂 Anyway I added a nonsense light filter to make the finger look like a bokeh hahaha I don't think it's very convincing anyway 😅😅 Also the bridge was actually super full of people so there where 3 people behind me but I used this AMAZEBALLS app called Touch Retouch and wtf I couldn't believe it I just erased their existence out of my pic! Super easily! What sorcery is this 😱

職場困頓中，一顆對面烏入嘴，兒時的澀苦在舌根處轉甘甜，
令人不禁揣想：難道離家夠久、吃苦夠多，方得品嚐對面烏？

華語歌詞:
瘦巴巴，對面烏
斜生崁頂路
金黃黃，七月初
樹籽結滿樹
紅嘴黑鵯，八哥
嘰啦前頭過
目淒淒，對面烏
斜生崁頂路

知它澀，知它苦
持家長媳婦
剁摘洗，煮壓滷
工序攬全部
餅圓圓，醃缸浸
牆角阿母心
有好食，不享福
時常對面烏

多少年啊，吃盡人生苦
好端端舌頭憶起對面烏
從鹹澀黏嘗出甘帶甜
一時間心轉念
穿過牆角走上崁頂路
猛抬頭對到阿母的目珠〞

註
對面烏：破布子在美濃之稱。

Skinny and spindly , the Bird Catcher Tree
Slanting over the dikes and the trails to the peaks
Golden yellow in early July
The whole tree laden with berries
The mynah and black bulbul with its red beak
Come screeching past your leaves
With its sad eyes, Bird Catcher Tree
Slant over dikes and the trails to the peaks

Everyone knows you are astringent and bitter
So housewives keeping house
Pluck the branches and wash and press your seeds flat
They do all this and not only that
They squeeze the berries and put you in a vat
By the wall to pickle, like a mother's heart
Something nice to eat once in a while, but not for her
Left to sit in a corner, the bird catcher

How many years have you eaten life's bitter?
For some reason, your tongue remembers the taste of the bird catcher
From the sharp astringency seeps something sweet and warm
For a moment your heart takes a turn
past the wall to the dikes and the paths to the peaks
suddenly looking up to see the tears on your mother's cheeks

Vince Carter versus Allen Iverson is the kind of marquee matchup the NBA has been craving since the days of Magic Johnson and Larry Bird.

As two of the NBA's most exciting young stars, they are dazzling spectators and TV viewers with limitless creativity and breathtaking moves in the Toronto Raptors-Philadelphia 76ers playoff series.

"This matchup is great, and people are getting turned on to it," said NBA deputy commissioner Russ Granik, who was at Philadelphia's First Union Center on Wednesday night, when Iverson scored 54 points to Carter's 28 in the 76ers' 97-92 victory. "For better or worse, fans like it when you get superstars going against each other. People have been hearing about these guys for years now, but they haven't gotten this far before where they met each other at this level. That gets people interested."

"This is special because they both have their teams on their backs," 76ers president and part-owner Pat Croce said. "They're great basketball players, but more than that, they're exciting. They add an element of surprise when they get the ball. You don't know what's going to happen. They bring that anticipation and enthusiasm and they smile at the fans and interact with them. That's what the NBA needs. That's what we want. I want the people going nuts when Carter does something. I just want him doing it less than Allen."

That certainly was the case in Wednesday night's game as Iverson set a 76ers single-game playoff scoring record. Many of Carter's baskets were more spectacular, but Iverson was relentless in going to the basket.

"I didn't want to settle for anything," Iverson said. "I went and took what I wanted."

Even Carter acknowledged Iverson after the game.

"He did the job, that's for sure, but the series is not over," Carter said.

With the NBA's overall popularity declining and new rules designed to make the game more appealing set to take effect next season, an Iverson-Carter matchup is what the league really needed.

"Watching these two kids, I don't think our league is in any trouble," 76ers coach Larry Brown said. "They really are exciting."

"I think you are going to see more great individual matchups as the young kids we have in this league develop," he said. "We are always rushing to fix this and fix that, but maybe there is not always something wrong. The young guys have to be able to grow and make some mistakes. Let them grow up and then see what they can do. In this series, you are seeing two of the best going at each other."

It is looking increasingly likely that Michael Jordan will end a three-year retirement next season and return to the NBA as a player. Carter and Iverson will be right there, eagerly awaiting that matchup.

"You always want to test yourself against the best, and I would welcome the challenge," Iverson said.

Said Carter of Jordan: "He set the standard we are all trying to reach."

Jordan, of course, owns six championship rings and 10 scoring titles, while Carter, 24, has won nothing more than a rookie of the year award and a slam-dunk title. But Carter is one of the league's most popular players among fans, the leading vote-getter for the past two NBA All-Star Games. Iverson, 25, won his second scoring title this season and is favored to win this season's most valuable player award, as well.

"We try to promote the game and the teams and all the players," Granik said. "There are just certain players who capture people's imaginations. You can't deny that.

"We can't go out and create them. It just happens and they're doing it on the court. You can't make superstars, I don't care how good a promotion. It's what they do on the court, and here we have Iverson and Carter. They're doing it most nights on the floor. That's what people see and they love to watch it."

Iverson tough, Carter soft?

Carter and Iverson have had their share of critics since each was designated "the next Michael Jordan" — something that occurred shortly after they entered the league.

One thing that has never been questioned, however, is Iverson's toughness. He plays while hurt and is one of the league's most resilient players despite getting knocked down and run over on a regular basis. At a spindly 6-0, 165 pounds, he just keeps getting up.

"You can question a lot of things about Allen but not his heart," Brown says. "The kid wants to win and will give up his body to do it."

The 6-6, 225-pound Carter on the other hand has been labeled as soft. He isn't as tough as Iverson and when he hits the floor he doesn't bounce up as quickly. He gets criticized for settling for three-point shots instead of driving strong to the basket. In Wednesday night's game, Iverson repeatedly drew fouls and shot nine free throws; Carter never got to the line.
