Startling Start, Endless End

The Practice S08E17:

Denny Crane: What with the red tie, soldier?
Matthew Billings: Denny.
Alan Shore: I beg your pardon?
Denny Crane: Around here, we wear cold ties—blue, black. Hard colors, tough colors. Red is soft. Soft does not work around here, sailor.
Matthew Billings: This is Alan Shore, Denny. He's not an attorney here; he's a client.
Denny Crane: Oh. Red's a soft color, pilgrim.

Alan Shore: That's Denny Crane? The Denny Crane?
Matthew Billings: Don't be fooled. Once he's in the courtroom, he's every bit the icon. Now, can we get back to you?
Alan Shore: They moved for a T.R.O. before Judge Gleason tomorrow.
Denny Crane: What's this I hear on Ryan?
Matthew Billings: He's holding at 120. His attorney'ss due in any second.
Denny Crane: Send him into my office, will you?
Matthew Billings: Yeah.
Denny Crane: Good man—Gleason. Shot ducks with him on Saturday. He's a good man.

另外一些话。

现在是2009年。10年前，1999年，是一个非常好的年份。我20岁的时候，就在听以下这些专辑：

卢春如《我不是她》

江美琪《我爱王菲》

侯湘婷《秋天别来》

萧亚轩《萧亚轩同名专辑》

五月天《第一张》

范晓萱《我要我们在一起》

杨乃文《Silence》

林忆莲《铿锵玫瑰》

蔡健雅《蔡健雅》

王菲《只爱陌生人》

当中的好些人，当时是第一次发行专辑。而其中有几个，可能现在再也等不到他们的新歌了。无论在KTV我们还会不会唱起这些歌，它们都已经十岁了。另外那许多首名字里带1999的歌，例如《伤心1999》、《谢谢你的爱1999》、《边界1999》、《走过1999》，我可搞不清楚它们究竟是几几年发行的。

至于把我和chocobo联系在一起的那首《Hello》，倒是要等2000年才发行。虽然记忆里都觉得好远了，但还是老不过世纪末哟！
