Stealing Light

Bedtime Stories  Nov 01 09

*Shhh*Speak of it to no one but it seems as if I've been breaking the law. Thoroughly unbeknownst to me, I've actually been living on borrowed electricity. Well, borrowed as in my shady contractors have connected the power line without informing the source. Oddly enough, the said electric company doesn't seem to be in any hurry to correct the problem. Let there be light? Even when I found it timely to inform them a month ago that the power bill hasn't arrived in my post box for several months! Rather than call out the dogs, the call centre only told me to twiddle my thumbs and wait in the most cheerful manner. Full story...

Secretary for Hire

Bedtime Stories  less than a day ago

Didn't really hit me until today that I might be in charge one day. Certainly makes it sound as if it's some uncertain date in the far misty future - rather than by the end of the month.

How I Became a Mullah

Bedtime Stories  3 days ago

Looked at myself in the mirror today and still couldn't find the resemblance. Seriously. Didn't I get mistaken for a porn-obsessed sexual perv just a month back? When did I suddenly turn into a turbanned and mustachioed religious cleric? Then again it was dark, I'd grown a beard and I was eating kosher food.

Don't Stand So Close

Bedtime Stories  5 days ago

Very few things make me squeamish. Okay, maybe torn hands dangling by the ligaments. And possibly tapeworms.

Gay Man Scorned

Bedtime Stories  6 days ago

Jealousy. It's an ugly, selfish emotion that has crept up on the best of us. Even knightly Arthur himself wasn't spared the sly, green-eyed demon when Lancelot made the moves on his queen.

Old Porn Becomes New again

Bedtime Stories  Nov 18 09

Just today, I stumbled across an old porn film that I first watched years - and years back. An incestuous lil gay porn that involved three virile, highly adventuresome ( and shockingly inventive ) brothers.

That Dirty Lil Scorpio

Bedtime Stories  Nov 16 09

Seems even the fates are conspiring against us. Feel terribly victimized with our already tattered reputations slandered and besmirched by those who don't know better.

Take A Slice of Pork

Bedtime Stories  Nov 14 09

With an education partly based on the misguided teachings of Islamic-inclined tutors, there has been much argument on the feasibility of consuming pork.

My Ten-Dollar Weekend

Bedtime Stories  Nov 12 09

Start cracking those books, kids. Cutting coupons to buy groceries simply isn't fun. If there's a valid argument for studying smart to get into an economically viable course such as geology ( forget about medicine which is purely altruistic! ), it's that being poor actually sucks.

Once Upon an Ex-Gay

Bedtime Stories  Nov 10 09

Seriously. Forget about saving the whale. Forget about saving the orang-utan. Forget about staying away from shark's fin soup.

Pride & Prejudice

Bedtime Stories  Nov 09 09

We come to love not by finding the perfect person but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly.
