The gas station nearest my house happens to face a strip
club. It is apparently a very successful strip club, as they could
afford to install a LCD screen on their roof that might be visible
from the Space Station. It's certainly visible from the gas
station. At some point my eyes will drift up while pumping gas,
and
there
will
be
a
one-story
image
of
a
young
woman
in
some stage of near-undress.
离我家最近的加油站对面碰巧有 一家脱衣舞夜总会。
这家夜总的
屋顶装了一个巨大的
LED
屏幕，说不定在太 空上都看得见。能够支
付这样的费用，看来经营得非常成功。不用说，在加油站也能看见那
块屏 幕。在加油的时候，我会不经意地往上看，一层楼高的屏幕上显
示着一个几乎一丝不挂的少女。

As
I
was
getting some gas
this morning,
I
wondered for
the first time what a woman pumping gas thought when she
looked at that screen. Though it would depend on the woman,
1

I
thought.
A
woman
who
had
once
been
an
exotic
dancer
herself
would
certainly
look
at
that
image
differently
than
a
Catholic nun. < br>今天早上，
我又来到这里加油，
脑海中突然有一个问题挥之不去：
一个女人来加 油的时候看到那块屏幕会有什么想法呢
?
我觉得那要看
她是个怎样的人。
曾经 当过脱衣舞者的女人和天主教的修女肯定会对
那个图像有不同的看法。

The image would look different to each of us. And when I
say look different, I mean we would be seeing what amounts
to a different image. For while the young woman's pose
and attire that I see are identical to the pose and attire that
every other man, woman, and child sees, the story that image
tells me is told uniquely by me, by my own ideas about women
and advertising and maybe even gas stations.
那张图像对 每个人来说都是不一样的，
这个不一样是指我们会产
生不一样的想法。虽然那个少女的姿势打扮 在每一个男人、女人、小
孩眼中都是一样的，但是我在那图像中捕捉到的故事是独一无二的，
是 由我自身对女人、广告、甚至是加油站的想法创造的。

The
image
is
nothing;
the
story
is
everything.
Good
to
remember
if
you're
a
writer.
Writers
don't
report
the facts. The fact that there is a strip club with a giant LCD
screen
blazing
near-nudity
for
all
to
see
means
nothing
in
2

reality.
All
that
ever
matters
is
what
a
person
believes
when
they look upon it. What a person believes is the terrain of the
storyteller.
图像本身什么都不是，故事才是 一切。如果你是个作家，你会知
道作家并不是描写现实。
那儿有一家脱衣舞夜总会，
屋 顶上有一块巨
大的
LED
屏幕，屏幕上显示着几近裸体的少女，这是现实，没有意义的现实。
真正有意义的是人看到这个景象时萌生的想法，
人的思想
是创作故事的 土壤。

And
by
the
way,
it
is
the
only
terrain
of
the
storyteller.
Storytellers,
whether
they
are conscious
of
it
or
not,
wish
to
alter reality. We are not so interested in changing the image
that
flashes
on
the
great
LCD
screen
of
the
world.
Mostly
that's beyond our control. We could march, or protest, or
fill out petitions to get the screen changed, but it's faster,
ultimately, to tell ourselves a story about what we see there.
而且，
思想是创作故事的唯一土壤。
讲故事 的人会有意无意地想
去改变现实。
我们不是想把现实中大屏幕上惹眼的图像换掉，
大多 数
情况下我们都是有心无力。
我们当然可以游行示威，
写信请愿把那屏
幕换掉 ，
但说到底，
更快捷的办法是给自己讲个跟眼前的事物有关的
故事。

I sometimes forget I have to power to change that story.
My
mind
drifts
as
idly
from
thought
to
thought
as
my
eyes
