A few funny gems in there: whatever I want written on some girl's body in chocolate (tried to get her to write Maxwell's equations, but she said no) something from a gay porn star. I was afraid to dig through his twitter page to find the original contest...

    It's surprising how British Isles centric this is (if you include Ireland). LA is the only exception, though the 'city' may be a appendage for places like Mexico City. Do us Brits(/Irish) run more competitions?
