　　其他人都死到哪里去了？
　　１８
　　现在，你该想到我在一个什么地方了吧。在这里到处跑着各种各样的人——也许还有好多历史名人什么的呢！
　　你可以想像，你一旦死了，你可以遇见好多过去时代的人物。你可能见到铁器时代的人、石器时代的人，还有中世纪的人。你可能还会见到许多名人，像拿破仑、恺撒大帝或者狄更斯、莎士比亚。也许你还会见到从小就崇拜的英雄豪杰，或是哪本你百读不厌的世界名著的作者。你可能还热切地希望他跟你讲讲他们的生平事迹，或者至少说上两句话也好。至少你可以告诉他们，他们在死后是多么出名。因为他们可能还不知道自己对后世的影响有多大，当然除非已经有别“人”在你之前告诉他们了。
　　但是很可惜，你找不到他们。那里见不到狄更斯，那里也找不到成吉思汗。穿着兽皮，死了几千年的山顶洞人你也一个见不着。（当然，“呜呕”是个例外，我在后面再跟你说他。）埃及艳后，你找不见。先知摩西，你也找不见。实际上，你见到的绝大部分死人都是跟你差不多一个时代的人。其他人都死到哪里去了？好多年前像我一样死去的那些人，都到哪里去了呢？
　　我猜他们可能去了一个更好的地方，就像我们在葬礼中常常听到的：“离开这个世界，前往一个更美好的地方。”但这话对我来说不大合适。
　　１９
　　我在这个不管是叫“另一个世界”，还是叫什么名字的地方到处游荡。我倒是颇有几分想在这个所谓的“另一个世界”里，见见已经去世多年的历史名人——哪怕是过去时代的普通人也好。这样我就可以跟这些死了好多年的人吹吹高科技，大讲汽车、直升机，还有电脑，看看他们是怎样惊讶地张大嘴巴，半天说不上话来的样子。但是很少有人会这样。
　　即便是生活在很远古时代的“人”，他们也都听说过这些东西了。即便是你跟“呜呕”，那个山顶洞人说电脑，他也只不过耸耸肩膀，那样子就像是在说：“喔，不就是电脑吗？”然后头也不回地就走了，一点也不感兴趣。当然，那些话山顶洞人“呜呕”并不能真的说出来，因为他只会叫“呜呕”。所以大家都叫他“呜呕”，因为每次问他叫什么名字，他也都说：“呜呕！”
　　那些活在以前年代的“人”们，还呆在这儿，也都是为了找什么东西。好像他们不找到什么东西，就没有真正安息、真正死了似的。他们跟阿瑟一样，都有没干完的事情。说不准，我也是这样的人呢。
　　２０
　　没有完成的心愿。我猜你会这么叫它。我每次想到它时，简直感动得不得了。我不得不提起我的姐姐，我管她叫“雅丹”。她本名叫雅丹婷，但我总是叫她“鸭蛋”。我猜我父母一定后悔给我姐姐起名叫“雅丹婷”了。现在大家都叫她“婷娜”，我姐姐她本人也一直想把“雅丹婷”这个名字隐瞒起来。“雅丹婷”简直就成了我们家的一个丑闻，我们全家常常要努力把这个名字隐瞒起来，不愿意把它告诉别人，这就像侦探小说里常有的情节，一家人千方百计向陌生人隐瞒客厅里的大衣柜里藏着具骷髅。
　　所以现在人人都只知道她叫“婷娜”，人人也都只叫她“婷娜”，但我可不管那么多，还是叫她“雅丹”，好叫她知道，虽然她在外人面前装得那么优雅，我还是知道她的老底的！
　　反正，我们姐弟俩算是记上仇了。她现在连钢笔都不借我使了。她硬说我用她的笔一点也不爱惜，到处乱画，总之一句话，就是不借我笔使。害得我只好自己掏腰包，出门骑上自行车去商店买笔。我们这次吵得特别厉害，但其实也并不是真的谁恨谁，就像世界上其他兄妹和姐弟在吵架时一样，不过是气头上的话。
　　我说这次我可要自己去买笔了，以后就是她跪在地上，给我磕一万个响头求我，我也不会再使她的破笔了。她说就算是太阳从西边出来，她也不会这么做的。她还让我赶快去买自己的笔，最好再买块橡皮，她再也不想见到我那脏得像烂泥的橡皮了。

    　　我一怒之下推开门，大声说：“我们走着瞧，我们走着瞧！我这次可算是恨上你，恨上你们了！我再也不会回来了！”
　　我姐姐却说：“那太好了，你永远也别回来！”
　　“你会后悔的！你会后悔你说的话的，‘鸭蛋’！我要是在哪天死了，你准保会后悔的
！”
　　但她却说：“你放心吧，我不会，我高兴还来不及呢！赶快走，永远别再叫我‘鸭蛋’！”
　　我用力把门撞上，骑上车就走了。
　　我被卡车撞死了。
　　２１
　　现在我在“这里”了，我已经彻底断了气，没了命。但糟糕的是我对我姐姐最后说：“我要是在哪天死了，你准保会后悔的！”更糟的是她还说：“我不会，我高兴还来不及呢！”
　　我现在特别想见我姐，对她道歉说那话不是我的真心话。我想她现在也一定特别想对我道歉，说她说的话也不是真心的。我知道我姐根本不会有那种意思，她现在肯定跟我一样，难过得要死。
　　所以，我现在特别想“回去”见她，告诉她，我真的很爱她，她不用那么难过，别再哭了。还要告诉她，她可以用我所有的东西，包括我养的所有昆虫。
　　但是不可能了。我不可能“回去”了。因为我已经死了。
　　２２
　　现在我想，我有点像阿瑟了，或许还有点像那个山顶洞人“呜呕”。虽然不知道“呜呕”还有什么未了的心愿——因为别人问他什么，他只会说“呜呕”。我肯定很像他们，还有事情没有完成。

TOKYO: When Japanese troops conquered the then-capital of China in 1937, historians agree they slaughtered tens of thousands of civilians in an orgy of violence known since then as the Rape of Nanking.

A Japanese nationalist filmmaker announced on Wednesday he is working on a documentary with a very different message: the massacre never happened.

The film, to be called "The Truth about Nanking" and completed in August, will be based on testimony from Japanese veterans, archival footage and documents that proponents say prove accounts of the killing are nothing more than Chinese propaganda.

"This will be our first effort to correct the errors of history through a film," director Satoru Mizushima said at a Tokyo hotel, joined by a group of conservative lawmakers and academics who support the project.

Mizushima, president of a rightwing Internet broadcaster "Channel Sakura," said he hoped to enter the film in international festivals late in the year. He is aiming to raise about 300 million yen (US$2.47 million; €1.89 million) for the effort.

The film is part of a gathering wave in Japan of "massacre denial" projects, mostly books, that attempt to debunk a slaughter that historians say killed at least 150,000 civilians. China says the death toll was as many as 300,000.

The film was certain to rile audiences in China, and opponents say it would only cause embarrassment for Japan.

"They say the film will transmit the truth about Nanking, but they will be only spreading shame for Japan," said Shinichiro Kumagai, a civil activist studying the massacre in Nanjing — the current name of the city — and supporting Chinese war victims.

"The move only reveals their inability to face Japan's wartime past by looking the other way," Kumagai said.

The film is based on the work of Japanese historian Shudo Higashinakano, whose work included two books in the late 1990s claiming the massacre was a hoax.

A Chinese court last year awarded a Nanjing Massacre survivor 1.6 million yuan (US$200,000; €156,100) in compensation after ruling against Higashinakano and another historian for claiming she fabricated her account of the atrocity.

The massacre, brought to a worldwide audience in English by Iris Chang's book, "The Rape of Nanking: The Forgotten Holocaust of World War II," is widely seen as a gruesome symbol of Japan's bloody conquest of East Asia in most of the first half of the 1900s.

The massacre is a cause celebre of Japan's increasingly active nationalist groups, which are pushing to cull references to it in public school textbooks and discredit accounts of the slaughter.

Japan's rightists argue Nanking's population was too small to have suffered such a huge massacre, and they claim doctored photographs and exaggerated witness accounts have created the false image of Japanese soldiers as craven and bloodthirsty.

Wednesday's announcement coincides with this week's showing of documentary "Nanking," a study of the brutal Japanese occupation of the city, at Sundance Film Festival in Utah.

Mizushima said his project was aimed at countering that film, among others planned this year marking the 70th anniversary of the disgraced past.

"Keeping silence to a film like this would allow anti-Japan propaganda to spread around the world as universal knowledge," he said, adding that such works contribute to anti-Japanese sentiment by portraying his countrymen as "brutal barbarians."

 

 

    "what a day,nothing achieved."

The Americans and Russians, at the height of the arms race, realized that if they continued in the usual manner they were going to blow up the whole world.

One day they sat down and decided to settle the whole dispute with one dog fight. They'd have five years to breed the best fighting dog in the world and whichever side's dog won would be entitled to dominate the world. The losing side would have to lay down its arms.

The Russians found the biggest, meanest Doberman and Rottweiler ------- in the world and bred them with the biggest meanest Siberian wolves. They selected only the biggest and strongest puppy from each litter, killed his siblings, and gave him all the milk. They used steroids and trainers and after five years came up with the biggest meanest dog the world had ever seen. Its cage needed steel bars that were three inches thick and nobody could get near it.

When the day came for the fight, the Americans showed up with a strange animal. It was a nine-foot long Dachshund. Everyone felt sorry for the Americans because they knew there was no way that this dog could possibly last ten seconds with the Russian dog.

When the cages were opened up, the Dachshund came out and wrapped itself around the outside of the ring. It had the Russian dog almost completely surrounded. When the Russian dog leaned over to bite the Dachshund's neck, the Dachshund reached out and consumed the Russian dog in one bite. There was nothing left at all of the Russian dog.

The Russians came up to the Americans, shaking their heads in disbelief. `We don't understand how this could have happened. We had our best people working for five years with the meanest Doberman and Rottweiler ------- in the world and the biggest, meanest Siberian wolves."

"That's nothing," an American replied. "We had our best plastic surgeons working for five years to make an alligator look like a Dachshund."
