Thank-you for your tenderness 謝謝你如此溫柔


Feeling aloft is great especially when you are inside the mega-shopping atrium. You turn around at mid-point of an expressway escalator that takes you from G/F to n/F. The scenery is spectacular, a reeling sensation running aloft the horizon.

At vanishing point, you see city gurus doing the atmananda sequences behind the glassy facades covered with sweaty mist, simmering inside and with glimmering lights for navigation of the atmananda sequences. At viewing of their sun salutations, postures become your guiding lights to ascend at higher altitude…

At the sides, you look out to the tranquil cityscape – Portland st. A red light district that had passed its’ hay days, with a few remains of “3-tasty massage, fresh school girls, part-time housewife, Russian Blondie…” signage, twinkling like a constellation around those magnet store advertisements (nokia, slim-fast, H&M)… at where the facades of the old district had been “resurfaced” for installation of multi-storey high posters and flooded with metal halides, dedicating the white nights experience to the neighbors in case their windows have not yet been blessed by the magnet store advertisments coverage.

At the midst of feeling serene, tenderness and reassurance, you look up to the starry night of a digital projection (the atrium ceiling) while being overwhelmed with gratitude from the voice of 山口百恵「さよならの向こう側」. A return of the lost Portland st. tenderness in resonant with the MV played by the mega plasma under your feet-

何億光年
く星にも
寿命があると
教えてくれたのは
あなたでした
季節ごとに咲く
一輪の花に
無限の命
知らせてくれたのも
last song for you
約束なしの お別れです
今度はいつと言えません
あなたの燃える手
あなたの口づけ
あなたのぬくもり
あなたのすべてを
きっと私忘れません
後姿 みないで下さい
Thank you for your kindness
Thank you for your tenderness
Thank you for your smile
Thank you for your love
Thank you for your everything
さよならのかわりに
眠れないほどに
思い惑う日々
熱い言葉で
支えてくれたのは
時として一人
くじけそうになる
心に夢を
与えてくれたのも
涙をかくしお別れです
いつものように
さり気なく
あなたの呼びかけ
あなたの喝采
あなたのやさしさ
後姿 みないでゆきます

Hey... u have an interesting blog...


Anyways, if you think there will be a major fall in the stock market in october, it will most likely be driven by action in the US.

Which means the US dollar will rise substantially.

Therefore, it might sound old fashioned. But if you think big fall in October, cash is indeed king.

Hope this helps! =)

hi pakman,

great to see u stop by, funny that i was on the internet last sunday all nite doing research on gold & silver price drop during the historic crush in 87,97,03, and even 911, gulf war, actually they did fall from 3-10% in the past...

then later on i concluded that US dollar was the best buy for Oct!!

so, come by more and chat more!! cheers
