Online Contract Archive?

ChrisKnight asks: "There are a number of places to search on the 'net when looking for a boiler plate software license. I was wondering if anyone maintained a site of boiler plate consulting contracts? I've been given a stock developer's contract to sign for a project that is just generic sysadmin work. I'm not 'creating IP' for them, so much of the contract is not appropriate. I'd like to find something I can counter with, something that treats what I am going to be doing similiar to the work of an auto mechanic. Any suggestions on where to look?"

I'm wondering, has anyone anyone been able to find decent contract work on sites like these? I check them out from time to time and I either end up finding that companies are posting full/part time job postings or they want you to move somewhere for a year or two. Or I end up being out bid by companies that own a bunch of developers and just assign them to contract jobs (happens on eLance alot).
How do you get a contract job to being with is what I'd like to know
