看海的日子

如果你覺得馬克斯太枯燥，我也有同感。他喋喋不休，又有些偏執。夜間歪在沙發上讀馬克斯，被他的術語折騰得昏昏欲睡；半睡半醒之間，仿佛聽到一個悶悶的聲音，從濃厚的鬍鬚後面發出，念咒似的：物化-異化-物化-異化...，勞動-資本-勞動-資本...，資產-無產-資產-無產...，一波波如海浪沖擊我意識的沙灘。浪頭本來各有各的頻率，搶灘之後，亂了陣腳，激起一堆如雪的泡沫，然後消逝。

於是我想起在沙灘看海的日子。

記憶中最美的海灘有兩處，一處在福隆，一處在澎湖。對福隆的印象，是寬廣細膩的沙灘，緩慢抒情的坡度。大學時候和社團的朋友去玩，一群人在海邊聊到天明，累了，就躺在平沙上打盹，等待日出。那一定是夏天，因為海邊無比溫暖，濕潤的淺灘觸摸著皮膚，無比柔和。後來日出了，朝陽灑下來，我們一躍而起，腳丫踏在沙灘表層薄薄的海水上，欣悅無言。澎湖，是大學畢業當兵前趁機去玩的，也是六七位社團的朋友同行。一位同學的父親在那裡工作，我們就住在他的宿舍，每天去不同的地方，痛快奔騰了一個禮拜。那麼藍的海天，那麼白的沙，那麼燦爛快樂的陽光。那段日子，不需要哲學。

如今住在美國東北岸；這裡的海灘多半粗礪短陡，盛夏時水溫也僅攝氏十度；有時浮雲蔽日，一時陰鬱灰暗，天地忽然咆哮起來，冽風襲人，冷得教人哆嗦。嚴峻的環境會讓人思索；哲學在此有一席之地。

人可以在繁複的思考和簡單的快樂之間做選擇嗎？如果有機會，我願意拋棄哲學，忘掉辯證，回到那個失去的樂園。我常常想起福隆的沙灘，想起溫暖的觸感。人類有無窮的異化歷史，我有一段沒有異化的歲月，我比人類幸福。

大鬍子德國猶太佬的聲音又開始迴盪，那個想讓妻兒過幾天小資產階級的生活而不可得、泡在大英圖書館進行革命大業的傢伙。他是否享受過簡單的快樂，有過一段沒有異化的歲月？

Why don't you two just switch jobs ?

From the tone NorthBridge seems to assimilate BB into those polar creatures... Personally I feel a polar bear can be an iconic fit.

Speak of fat, the past year I got an even distributed of it all over my torso and limbs, if I can still delineate the lines between them. I feel like an over-ripe seal ready for Norse slaughter. I must drop some before summer comes.

Moby-Dick,  Hmmm, there is one episode of Looney Toon where Yosemite Sam keeps shouting "Dick Moe Dick Moe ..." as a parody of the novel. Bugs Bunny serves as that young sailor who can only sweeps the deck incessantly.  I only watched that cartoon and read a Chinese translation by 文化圖書 while being a philosphy-less kid.

Have you guys ever wondered why all my knowledge originates from TV or movies ?

Lucky you; I have always wanted to do the opposite: find a gloomy winter afternoon, drive all the way to the tip of the Cape with a bottle of really cheap JB and my old Modern Library copy of Moby-Dick, rent a cottage, start up the fireplace, pour myself a glass of whisky and then read my Moby-Dick out loud all night long (till the bottle emptied) with the wind howling outside.

 

Sandy beach under a sunny sky clear as a blue crystal? I have it at my finger tips all year round.

Lucky you!
There are creatures like penguins, seals, polar bears who can not enjoy the life of tropical islanders'. Talking about biodiversity

Anyway, in my case it has to do with the lack of fat (or the uneven, ineffective distribution of which, to be more precise). It is -20 C since yesterday. I know you'd been through worse, but you are like a northern bred. For a warm blood like me this is absolutely insanely over the limit.

I brought a bottle of Baileys from Heathrow, so let me (literally and in a present continuous tense) pour myself a tiny portion, and drink to the misplaced Hadrian Wall who yawns at the San Diego waves.

呵呵呵，沒有哲學的繁複，就無法映襯出來簡單的生活的幸福!

不必選擇，兩者交替之間，造就了替我們思考的北橋客!

哈，生活如鐘擺，忽冷忽熱，忽簡忽繁。
好像可以寫一首歪詩了
