Unfortunately, the real reason is alot less exciting (and doesn’t involve sex) though nevertheless necessary, and if done well, should turn out to be slightly more fun then Sunday Dateline Fiji episodes.
A quick cursory glance at the right side of the blog will reveal that we’re nearing our momentous 100th post, this one being the 94th. Also, we’re nearing our 1st year Anniversary. Now while more established blogs tend to go all out and celebrate with no holds barred, we unfortunately do not have a budget to encompass both hired people with loose moral values as well as beer to be poured on said people’s chests.
However, we can commemorate our infamous 100th post as well as our 1 year in running with at least something since cheap skates we are not, and with that I can happily announce our very first contest!
Paradise Not Found: Abort, Retry, Fail? Slogan Competition
Here at Paradise Not Found we’re celebrating our upcoming 1 year in running by offering you faithful readers (yes, all 3 of you!) a chance to win one of these T-shirts!
All you have to do is to email us at failedparadise@gmail.com and give us your wittiest slogan that you think best describes this blog. This slogan will go at the top of the website underneath the banner, and will be a shining example of your ability to humour the world, with the T-shirt for bragging rights! A classic win-win situation if I may say.
Before you get your cerebrals cracking, there are a few conditions:
- Only one shirt is up for grabs.
- Email your entries to failedparadise@gmail.com, along with your name and postal address, as well as which T-shirt you’d like to take home should you hit the jackpot. Don’t forget to include your shirt size.
- You can come up with as many slogans as you like – the more the merrier
- This competition will end February 14, 2008 at 9pm PST.
- The real kicker – this contest is only open to residents of the Fiji Islands. No international entries will be accepted. The day we start getting six figure bank accounts to be able to mail stuff overseas is when we’ll make our contests worldwide
- The winning entry will be picked by a panel of judges – namely us – and the decision is final, with the winner notified via email.
Looking forward to seeing some interesting stuff

If you have a look at an article on the Fiji Times website today (Tuesday, January 15, 2008), there is an interesting article titled “Whore you fooling: Dass” and can be found here: http://www.fijitimes.com/story.aspx?id=78633
