Especially your tagline:Think Victorian, act Pagan. For some odd reason, it makes me think of Godiva going at a tear, starkers, through the blogosphere!!! Go for it! BTW: Dontcha think some Chinese legends are nice, too. For example, in Xiyuji (journey to the West), the naughty Monkey raises havoc after he crashes the heavenly palace of XiWangMu, the Heavenly Queen of the West, and steals the fruit of immortality, the ...peach.

She just confirms all the allegations that she is herself pretentious, vain, foul-mouthed and vapid. Great advert though, if I want to read about ass-sniffing, I'll read her site. Honestly though, you can't really ask people to always vote based on the quality of the content, it's like me asking myself why I love listening to Mariah Carey while driving.

I'm pleased that the anti-XX vote seems to be uniting behind mr brown. He does have a good site and is a true pioneer of blogging (over eight years now). It is very Singapore-oriented and much of his humor is isn't obvious to those with no experience in the city state. XiaXue’s dominance was expected.
