#上海生活头条[超话]# 260 THE MISER 吝啬鬼
A Miser sold everything he had, and melted down his hoard of gold into a single lump, which he buried secretly in a fi eld. Every day he went to look at it, and would sometimes spend long hours gloating over his treasure. One of his men noticed his frequent visits to the spot, and one day watched him and discovered his secret. Waiting his opportunity, he went one night and dug up the gold and stole it. Next day the Miser visited the place as usual, and, finding his treasure gone, fell to tearing his hair and groaning over his loss. In this condition he was seen by one of his neighbours, who asked him what his trouble was. The Miser told him of his misfortune; but the other replied, “Don’t take it so much to heart, my friend; put a brick into the hole, and take a look at it every day: you won’t be any worse off than before, for even when you had your gold it was of no earthly use to you.”

案件如期推进。
"Workplace romances are as American as apple pie," Wade said in an interview that aired on "Good Morning America." "It happens to everyone. But it happened to the two of us."
Asked if he regretted the relationship, Wade said he did because it became the focus of the case. Their past romance and Willis' defiant posture when confronted over the appearance of impropriety upended the case and alarmed even progressives.
"I regret that that private matter became the focal point of this very important prosecution," Wade said. "This is a very important case."

[月亮][每日译句]

And such is the paradox of living, this ecstasy comes when one is most alive, and it comes as a complete forgetfulness that one is alive.
生命的两重性就是如此：一个人最亢奋的时候表现出来的这一种癫狂，却使他自己完全忘记了自己还活着。

——《The Call of the Wild》Jack London《野性的呼唤》杰克·伦敦
