protractor vs. contractor

Refers to the debate over the benefits and drawbacks of using engine-powered vehicles instead of livestock to pull processing-implements for crop-fields. A protractor is a geometry device used to create/plot charts and graphs showing the various advantages that gas/diesel/electric motive-power has over horses or oxen, while a contractor is a hired professional whose job is to present the negative effects of motorized farm-machinery.
The whole protractor vs. contractor issue is not one that has an easy answer or solution --- on the one hand, modern farm-machinery is easier and simpler to operate, but horses and oxen do not cost nearly so much to purchase or maintain.

contract movie

A contract movie is a movie so emasculating, that if a guy is talked into seeing it with a female (since let's face it, that's the only way), it says in writing that the guy is getting action. That way, she can either make good on the contract or said guy can sue for breach of contract. Either way, he's getting reimbursed for seeing that piece of crap.
