Excerpt from the President Pig's report to...the Authorities

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY OF HONGKONG TRIP 3-5 AUG 2007
Upon immediate arrival of the Singapore (SG) Pig last Friday night, the two pigs went clubbing and got ABSOLUTELY smashed, lost all recollection of the night before, had mothers of all hangovers the next day but still stumbled into town to eat roast goose, then travelled all the way to Mainland China to spent 6hrs at a spa where the HK Pig scolded her masseur for not massaging her hard enough <>, ate Hainan bacon and fried sotong, travelled all the way back to HK at 1am in the morning, woke up take the first ferry to Tung Lung, hike to the other side of the island, rockclimb a cliff next to the sea in the freaking rain for the next 6hrs, rushed back to HK, showered, ate wantan soup, put the exhausted SG Pig in the airport train who fell asleep and woke up just in time to run from one end of the HK airport terminal to the other and barely made it into the plane 5 mins before it was due to take off for Singapore.

And they gossip all the way in between.

INTER-view, my ass

The word "interview" gives the connotation of a mutual process, ie. 2 parties viewing each other. But of course we all know that's crap when it comes to job interviews; the viewing is all one-sided and if you so happen to be the viewee, good luck on emerging unscathed from beneath the microscopic eye and hope you didn't leave any legs behind while escaping..

Which is why notwithstanding (1) its Friday night, (2) my BFF is flying in to town, (3) we're scheduled for a party night tonight, (4) dimsum, spa and shopping tomorrow, (5) our favourite activity the day after... I am feeling like sh**t... demmit! The last time I did a franchising agreement was 18 mths ago can!!! I can't for the life of me remember what else I'm supposed to look for besides territory, exclusivity, governing law, agency ...uh, governing law?? Freek... I'm not just missing a leg, I'm missing a head!
