有关资料记载，在江苏太仓县曾有皇家的大粮仓，常年囤积稻谷，以供“南粮北调”。粮多自然雀患频生，每年因雀患而损失了不少粮食。管理粮仓的官吏为了奖励捕雀护粮者，便以竹制的筹牌记捕雀数目，凭此发放酬金，这就是太仓的“护粮牌”。这种筹牌上刻著各种符号和数字，既可观赏，又可游戏，也可作兑取奖金的凭证。这种护粮牌，其玩法、符号和称谓术语无不与捕雀有关。
例如，“筒”的图案就是火药枪的横截面，“筒”即是枪筒，几筒则表示几支火药枪。“索”即“束”，是用细束绳串起来的雀鸟，所以“一索”的图案以鸟代表，几索就是几束鸟，奖金则是按鸟的多少计算的。“万”即是赏钱的单位，几万就是赏钱的数目。
此外“东南西北”为风向，故称“风”，火药枪射鸟应考虑风向。“中、白、发”：“中”即射中之意，故为红色；“白”即白板，放空炮；“发”即发放赏金，领赏发财。
麻将玩法的术语也与捕雀护粮有关。如“碰”即“彭”的枪声。又如成牌叫“糊”，“糊”“鹘”谐音，“鹘”是一种捕雀的鹰。除此还有“吃”、“杠”等术语也与捕鸟有关。那么为何又叫“麻将”呢?在太仓地方方言叫“麻雀”为“麻将”，打麻雀自然也就叫成打麻将了。

( 3 / 1489 )最近听朋友的女儿弹钢琴，听到这首《Scarborough Fair》电影《毕业生》的插曲，有一种莫名的感动，可能是真的老了。 西蒙&加芬克尔还有其他两手大家耳熟能详的歌曲《The Sound of Silence》, 《The bridge over Trouble Water》, 歌词真的很美！请大家欣赏
"But my words like silent raindrops fell, And echoed in the wells of silence"
——————《The Sound of Silence》
Scarborough Fair
歌词：
Are you goin to scarborough fair?
parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there,
she once was a true love of mine
Tell her to make me a cambric shirt,
parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Without no seams nor needlework,
then shell be a true love of mine
Tell her to find me an acre of land, parsley,
sage, rosemary and thyme
Between the salt water and the sea strand,
then shell be a true love of mine
Tell her to reap it in a sickle of leather,
parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
And to gather it all in a bunch of heather,
then shell be a true love of mine
Are you goin to scarborough fair?
parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme
Remember me to one who lives there,
she once was a true love of mine
Sound of Silence
歌词：
Hello darkness, my old friend,
Ive come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence.
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of
A neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence.
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one deared
Disturb the sound of silence.
Fools said i,you do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you.
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed
In the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon God they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
And the signs said, the words of the prophets
Are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls.
And whisperd in the sounds of silence.
The bridge over Trouble Water
歌词：
When youre weary, feeling small,
When tears are in your eyes, I will dry them all;
Im on your side. when times get rough
And friends just cant be found,
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
When youre down and out,
When youre on the street,
When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you.
Ill take your part.
When darkness comes
And pains is all around,
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will lay me down.
Sail on silvergirl,
Sail on by.
Your time has come to shine.
All your dreams are on their way.
See how they shine.
If you need a friend
Im sailing right behind.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind.
Like a bridge over troubled water
I will ease your mind.

我的原则就是没有任何原则
现在中国最大的困境在于——中南海的政策出不了中南海！
我们产生一点小分歧：她希望我把粪土变黄金，我希望她视黄金如粪土！
承诺就像说“操他妈”，老说老说但总也实现不了；实现诺言就像真的要去“操他妈”，那真是比登天还难！
猪有猪的思想，人有人的思想。如果猪有人的思想，那它就不是猪了——是八戒！
别说吃你几个烂西瓜，老子就是在东大食堂喝免费汤都不要钱！
不要在一棵树上吊死，在附近几棵树上多试试死几次~
偶尔幽生活一默你会觉得很爽，但生活幽你一默就惨了~
心终于可以放下了，原来那100多个是人头不是猴头！不然死了那么多猴猴多可惜啊……
马化腾私下说：“学十年语文没有聊半年QQ效果好！”
早餐里吃到刷锅的金属丝很正常，这正说明我们后勤是严格按照先刷锅后做饭的顺序操作的……
大便的时候要留一半，免得饿得快~
发工资时，会计对俺说：“你半年领一次工资吧，现在零钱太少了……”
收入分四种：狂劳不得，多劳少得，少劳多得，不劳狂得。还好，我是第二种！
偶的脸洗的很干净，苍蝇趴在那里都得摔死。难过的是我口袋比我脸还干净……
女人拥有无数个QQ号只为了调戏一个男人，男人常用一个QQ号上面加满各种各样的女人……
爱我的请举手,不爱我的请倒立！
生活真TMD好玩，因为生活老TMD玩我！
中500万，除爹妈不换，其余统统换！
爱不能联通了，心就在移动了；所以，爱莫轻易移动，心才永远联通！
