“No moss gathers on a rolling stone.” Wow – this proverb is such a close translation that I suspect it’s a translation. I thought that perhaps it was biblical, but it’s apparently not – it’s attributed to Roman writer (and proto-stand-up-comic) Publius Syrus. Or is it self-evident enough that it evolved separately in the sinosphere (China/Korea/etc.)?
My old town, where I worked for one year, 2010-11, was in the news on CNN. Really.
Why? Because the humongous nuclear power plant there has cracks in it. Which some inspectors found alarming.
Ah, Hongnong. I took the picture at right during a hike on the hill behind the town in May, 2010.
What I’m listening to right now.

내 카드는 BLACK 무한대로 싹 긁어버려
이 노랜 CRACK 무한궤도 확 돌려버려
감 떨어진 분들께 난 한 그루 감나무
콧대 높은 분들께 기죽지 않는 깡다구

잘 나가던 망나니건 차별 없이 CRAYON
하나 둘 three four 왔다 갔다 돌리고
차분하게 slow it down
심심하면 좀 더 빠르게 달려라
서울 대전 대구 부산 손뼉을 치면서
노래를 부르며 즐겁게 같이 춤을 춰
링가링가링 파트너 바꿔
머리 어깨 무릎 발
