I AM NOT ADDING TO THE RHYME NOW
***************************************

Well, I've seen such rhyming threads in quite many newsgroups. My observation
tells me that those newsgroups are often already lack in substance. If not,
then often the newsgroup gets trashed with this one-line posts quickly and
easily. 

IMHO this deed is kinda selfish because many may not be interested in this
kind of "humor", particularly considering the fact that newsgroup like SCHK
is not a newsgroup for general humor and such rhyme bears no characteristics
of HK culture either.

Obviously this net is a anarchial free-for-all type network, and therefore I
don't like playing censor here. I don't mind people joining it if they think
it's fun. I just want people to be considerate and save people who are not
amused with it by putting a header like: "One Line A Day" etc. so that people
can construct efficient KILL file to sort unwanted articles out.

Thanks for paying concerns.

Sigh.  Say no more, Cindy.  I know exactly what you mean.  It's sort of strange
how life works anyways, eh?  The only way you'll ever know is if you'll try, but
if you try, you might get hurt.  I guess that's the sacrifice one must make in
order to know answers.  I've often wondered what it would be like to have a
love-at-first-sight relationship.  Never have.  Probably never will.  But I've 
also often wondered:  Can a female and male be best friends without ever developing
feelings for each other?

Nowadays, as I noticed, jazz is penetrating over time.  You people might
not know that there are jazz music all around you.  For example, the
title music of the cartoon "pink panther", old movies of Charlie Chaplin
such as "the entertainer", some Cantonese songs by Kenny B (I'm sure he
is a fan of Kenny G.), Jacky Cheung, more and more saxophone sound 
appears in Chinese songs, movies and commercials.

I don't believe that any of you have never heard of the piece "The maple
leaf rag", a ragtime jazz classic!  But the point is, not many people
realise its name and its musical type.

See, what I'm trying to say is that jazz is not that "out of touch",
it's friendly like pop music.

If any of you are interested, we can discuss some more about this, and
of course, about any other kinds of music.  I wanted to say something
on rap talk too, but to what I knew, not many Hong Kong people like it,
so I kind of dropped this.

First of all, Peter should try to ask her out to lunch or dinner again
this semester, if he has the time.  Since F.S. welcomes all boys dating
her, as you said, getting her to go out with Peter shouldn't be tough.
And since she seem to have that reputation, I don't think P.K. would 
mind.  Then, Peter should get tho know this F.S. more, since he only
seem to know her from a distant perspective, right.  Anyway, if Peter
doesn't change his mind after this date, then he should know what to 
do from there (well, he could ask us again, right?)  
However, I think Peter should first figure out why he's attrated to this 
F.S. person in the first place, since she doesn't seem his type.
Else, go for it, ask! ask! and if you don't at first succeed, ask again.

When were they charged? If there was not hid-and-seek in these 4 months,
I'd suspect there are some political motive in the charge.
Alternatively, our law enforment department(s) would be terribly

One interesting argument : I doubted there would be no police in front
of the Agency that nite. Thus, if they did notice the participants that
the activity had been illegal, would that be a "pofessional negligence"
in not preventing "crime" in happening.

Could anyone, esp. those in HK, tell me if there is some sort of "human
rights legislations" passed some time before? What is the status of
these legislation? Would that ordinance contradict the new legislation?

But do you think HK people are also mature enough to handle its own

I hope you will not be sued by either of the three candidates or the
future President of the U.S..  :-)


I'd like to see the stats for the survey.  My understanding is that most
people from Asia want Bush to win.  Most Americans are still undecided.  
I personally am tired of Bush and the right-wing GOP platforms.  Talk about
hatred.  And I don't know if I trust Clinton.  And Perot....heh heh...he's
all ears.

I think Jimmy (Lam Chi Wing) can sing better than Aaron Kwok.
