The Boyfriend Contract

Crikey! I'll think twice if I have to sign a Male-Female Fiduciary Relationship Agreement such as the following, everytime I get into a relationship. It's scary! From thisisby.us:

II. Duties

The Boyfriend is expected to, using all reasonable capabilities and faculties, at any cost to oneself, provide consistent and satisfactory pleasure to the Principle at any time such pleasure is demanded, of any nature such pleasure is demanded.

The undersigned stipulates that under no circumstances may he refuse to provide such pleasure. Should the Boyfriend choose to violate this stipulation, it is to be deemed a full and automatic surrender of any current and future compensation to be provided for said services, whereupon the execution of such termination will be deferred to the Principle.

The undersigned agrees that the Principle does not need to disclose what pleasure she is expecting from the Boyfriend. It will be mutually understood that the Boyfriend must be able to read the mind of the Principle, and therefrom infer what pleasure she is seeking, and upon discovery, provide said pleasureable activity immediately to its fullest force and effect. Failure to abide by this stipulation my invoke immediate cancellation of this agreement pursuant Article II, paragraph 2 of this agreement.

Singapore is the world's first BookCrossing country

Steve Lenoff of Huntington Beach, California (and a long time reader of this blog), just informed me in an email that Singapore has recently become a BookCrossing Country. Ha! I didn't even know that mate. My bad. Steve has been a member of BookCrossing since it began. From BookCrossing.com:

We weren't kidding when we said the entire country is now an Official BookCrossing Zone! As part of the initial launch, thousands of books were released in over 2,000 SMRT Taxis, all Café Galilee and Café Cartel outlets and other various public locations in Singapore. The initial group of books released were English language books and included mostly fiction titles, some story-based non-fiction books, motivational and inspirational biographies and memoirs. BookCross@SG (BCSG), a joint initiative to promote literacy that also makes Singapore the first country to support a country-wide. The second wave of books to be released will include other world languages. The general public can also donate books to be shared in the project by dropping them at any of the 23 NLB public libraries.

Links to Scott's (BookCrossing CEO) entry and the BookCrossing Singapore website. I'll be taking a look at my book collection to see which books I can donate to this exciting project. You guys take part too aye.

(Thanks Steve)

The X-Files movie is coming!

Ok, I just got so excited during the past few minutes when I found out that my favourite X-Files will be coming to the big screens again. Yay! Mulder and Scully, I miss you! From E!News:

Duchovny reports that Gillian Anderson, will reprise her FBI agent/skeptic role, and series creator Chris Carter is due back to direct and cowrite the film with series vet Frank Spotnitz.

"Chris is going to direct it. Gillian is on board and I'm on board," he said. "I've been talking to Chris and he has been giving me progress reports. He actually called yesterday and said next week you should have something to read.

"I'm really looking forward to seeing what he did."

Production will likely ramp up after that, with Duchovny anticipating getting in front of the cameras as early as this fall.

"I think it's November for a summer [2008] release," he said.

I enjoyed the first X-Files movie back in 1998 although it wasn't that good a script but seeing Mulder and Scully on the big screens for the first time was orgasmic! I'm just glad that they will not be focusing on the X-files alien mythology for the movie this time.

The Cerne Abbas Giant (fertility legend): Oh really? Wait till I get my pagan followers to start doing some rain magic and wash you away, you fatso! Wahahahaha!

(Lightning flashes. Thunder roars. )

Homer Simpson: Doh!

Will Homer defeat Mr 10 inch dick? Who will win this epic battle? Background on Homer vs. Fertility Giant here.

NASA misspelled name of Space Shuttle

The folks at NASA spend billions of dollars to send men to space but they can't even make sure that the name of their Space Shuttle is spelled correctly. It's Endeavour not Endeavor, NASA! Before and after pics here.

How to protest the South Korean way

Here are several ways to protest like the South Koreans: 1) Drop your pants 2) Eat a flag 3) Throw shit 4) Severe several dog heads 5) Rip apart live pigs 6) Commit hara-kiri 7) Chop your fingers... More here with pics! But kids, please don't do any of these in Singapore because it is illegal to protest here.
