One of the girl friends and I went to perve on Johnny Depp a while back. Well, that was how she put it and ordinarily it would be the case had we chosen one of the more perve-friendly Depp flicks such as, you know, Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Johnny Depp’s Chest, or something along [...]

Anybody else wonder, during all the BrisConnections/Nicholas Bolton/Greenmailing thing hitting the business press last week, that it wouldn’t have travelled quite so high up in the non-business headlines as well if Mr. Bolton hadn’t also been so darn hot?

In case you hadn’t noticed, I work in the corporate world.
Well, mostly. I do a bunch of things really, especially these days when I’m branching out more, but traditionally I’ve been a corporate whore… oh, sorry, a loyal corporate employee doing my utmost to increase my employer’s profits for the good of all humanity… no, [...]
