坐了一次Southwest的飞机

我以前没有注意到这家航空公司。上次到Baltimore的时候,我哥哥说Southwest便宜,但是在一般的订票网站上定不到,一定要到他们自己的网站上去定。这次从Detroit到Baltimore的往返票,加上Michigan Flyer从East Lansing到Detroit飞机场的车票,还是比Northest 从Lansing到Baltimore的往返便宜50多块钱。当然了,代价是路上花费的时间多多了,而且回程的飞机是早上八点多的,需要早起。

这次一路还算顺利,虽然出发是下大雨,但Michigan flyer还是按时到了机场。Southwest现在还可以免费check in行礼,而且是两件,Northwest早就每件行礼要加15块钱了。Check in之后才发现没有座位号,看了说明才明白,登机是按组的,上去之后随便坐。我是B5,前面还有A1-A30,A31-A60两个组。飞机上人很少,我坐在中部,机翼旁边,一个人占了一排座。Southwest的风格和Northwest大大的不同,感觉比较casual。空姐讲解安全注意事项的时候,和乘客都是说说笑笑的。广播里也常常说两句笑话。难得的是有个漂亮空姐,一般美国这面都是大妈。比较搞笑的时,飞机开出来还没起飞就停下了,说是驾驶员的座位固定不住,修理了半天也修不好,又开回航站楼了。最后终于搞好了,平安抵达。

闲话

通常我在google上搜索的是,“如何在windows 7下配置ssh”,“vi命令”, 诸如此类的问题。百无聊赖的时候,搜一下“如何才能活得快乐”,这个居然也有答案。 这两天睡的太晚。今天实在挺不住了,回到家先睡了一觉,结果晚上睡不着。喝了点儿酒,还是睡不着。其实也不是为了睡觉才喝酒,就是想喝酒。 现在写着的这支笔,用起来不太舒服。Sailor的pocket pen, 比我另外两支pocket pen还要短1cm。不戴笔帽太短了,戴上笔帽重心太靠后,笔总向上翘,不舒服。想到Ebay上把它卖了,不过在此之前要拍照留念。我现在是不戴笔帽写的。 对,我是在纸上写的,不是在电脑上敲的。有图有真相! 太晚了,还是得去睡觉了。明天早上起来又是一个好人。张爱玲说的。 要是落款的话,现在可以用“醉墨“两个字。 我觉得这笔也没有那么讨厌了。 晚安,再见!

I want to learn Emacs

I'm using crimson editor, a good text editor from Korea. It has worked very well for me till now, but it has not been updated since 2004 and recently I found some features that crimson editor does not have,such as code folding, really useful. So I want to switch to a powerful, up-to-date, extendable and cross-platform editor. Between vi and Emacs, I chose the later one. Emacs is not easy to learn, so I just want to learn some basic features firstly. 1. Switch between buffers, buffer and minibuffer, and modes. One does not need to change into a special mode to input the content in Emacs (This is one reason why I did not choose vi), but Emacs does have a minibuffer to take some complected commands from the user. And in Emacs one can have many buffers and each buffer has a mode (not the same "mode" in vi). So have to learn what they are and how to switch between them. 2. Basic editing, such as creat new, open, save, and close file, copy and paste, search and replace ... 3. F...
