It’s a shame that we have to resort to playing games in relationships, and there is a part of me that has always hoped being honest with ones feelings and emotions will always reap rewards – alas, I have been burnt once again for not playing the game. I am still a very young guy, and it’s only natural for my adventure through life to teach me lessons, some learnt in a harsher fashion than others – it’s just up to me as an intelligent life form to move on and advance from these ‘lessons’ ...

Ok, so - here is the deal, Tet was a couple of weeks ago, and that signafies the beginning of the Chinese new year. It is the year of the Rooster in 05, and according to the chicken, this ain't going to be such a good year for me. Well, no one likes the french, or their national bird, aptly named - 'le coque' and le coque can bite me. I am all down with Chinese philosophy and stuff, and I was born in the year of the Dog... how a Rooster can have a negative effect on a Dog is beyond me,...

I don’t know if I should thank Walt Personally, or the underpaid goon who came up with the script for some hopeless forest animals, but in the movie ‘Bambi’ there is a line where Thumpers mum remarks to her devious son of a Rabbit “If you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all” This particular line has resonated with me since I saw the movie – I don’t know if that is because my older sisters were Disney sadists, repeating lines whenever they could, or whether it’s because it was t...

I was a young lad at the age of 16 years old. I was in my final year of high school, and I was becoming a man if you know what I mean. I went to a Catholic school, where religious education was mandatory – sure, it was the 90’s, sexual liberation has come a long way since the old days, but still, at a Catholic school promiscuity was still not common. I knew all about sex, but I still was comfortable with it, considering all the risks involved and how the religious attitudes of sex had been dr...

As a citizen of the world, I knew the result of the American election would have a profound effect on me, but I never knew it would have the effect it has. Since George W. Bush won his second term in office, I have become completely apolitical. Political concerns have always been part and parcel of what I am, or was, alas, I have lost faith in the world and human nature in general. I won’t go as far as to say I am now an anarchist, but I would be brash enough to say that we deserve an ast...

Paris on headgear: "People act differently toward you when you've got jewellery on your head. Always act like you're wearing an invisible crown. I do." Paris on the perils of Internet porn: "Everyone does crazy stuff when they're young, but if you're an heiress, you have even more opportunities to mess up." Paris on attracting guys: "Guys do not want girls who are too nice to them, or girls they can walk all over and get too easily. Every guy wants to be with a woman who th...

Look out the window of the third picture down at this website I know that you may not find it funny, but I found it hilarious, and I want to share the love BAM!!!

I can tell you one thing my friends, Me and Osama have the same kind of relationship as I do with George W. Bush, I like neither of them, and If I were their biggest fans, I would be whispering similar sweet nothings into both their ears in regards to how I am in total disagreement with their methods. The reason for this blog was a comment made on the Muggaz appreciation thread – I was referred to as Osama’s biggest fan, and a coward among other things. Unfortunately, I don’t have the po...

Or so I’m told. More and more often these days. I take that to mean that people are under the assumption that I think I’m somehow better than they are. For the record, I don’t. The fact that this rarely happens to me in real life makes me think that the problem is not what I say, but the way that I say it. I enjoy lively debate at the best of times, and never more than with the variety of great minds on JU. Yet lately I have been feeling the effects of speaking my mind without the bene...

It happened again… My Mum has gone away for the week with her husband, and I have the domain all to myself. I moved out of home last November, and there was this pussy I used to see… let’s just name this pussy – Pussy X. Pussy X used to wander in and out of my room as she saw fit… Pussy X knew I would always be there upon return, and kind of took me for granted… Pussy X would come under the covers with me at the start of the night, but whenever I would wake up in the morning Pussy would be...

I recently got a bit hazy in one of my articles and I feel the need to justify myself… I just like Sharks ok – is that a crime? Everyday, I sit idly by, watching people lambaste and criticise the sharks, just for them being lean, mean, advanced predatory machines. Living in Australia, I hear about sharks a lot. Being a beach boy myself, I have encountered Sharks on more than one occasion. My grandma used to live in a quaint little beach town by the name of Cape Patterson – my auntie o...

Individually, Humans as a species have got the wood on the animal kingdom… If a monkey wants to pick a fight with a human, he can pretty much guarantee a career as a lipstick tester for the rest of his meagre life… some monkeys look good in lipstick, but I am sure they would much rather be tomfooling about in the forests!!! One day, humans are going to take it too far, and we will have a war of epic proportions on our hands. Independently, a bunch of lipstick shy monkeys don’t have much ho...

Here's to hoping. BAM!!!

Well… 250 it is… I saw CS guy is up to his 99th, and looking for ideas… When I write about blogging, I am always thinking what I want to achieve out of blogging, have I achieved that? Or am I even close? I have obtained more that I could have hoped for when I wrote this article I am glad as I read through it, that my goals have not changed. The sense of perspective I have developed whilst sharing my thoughts and feelings with you guys is amazing. For the people who have been here from...

America, Australia, England... all countries that have a diverse range of ethnicities. You would be hard pressed to come across an urbanised citizen from any of these nations who does not know at least one person from a minute diversity, hence, these people will all know someone who has suffered from being part of the minority... Racism, prejudice, all negative connotations coming from the other side of the fence... What about the racism and prejudice from the other side of the fence? It m...
