Every delegate under the age of 25
was on the fifth floor getting loaded.
:11:06
Drugs, binge drinking,
hookers--
:11:08
it gets pretty ugly.
:11:12
- Sounds great, Steve.
- So does yours.
:11:17
Okay, well, l gotta get back to work.
Have a good lunch.
:11:21
Thanks.
:11:23
Hold it. Have to give myself
a demerit for poor scene setting.
:11:27
Let me explain. A year ago,
Chuck Lane and l were peers.
:11:29
He hadn't become editor yet.
:11:31
Michael Kelly was editing
the magazine then.
:11:33
Sorry, Mrs. Duke.
l know how you feel about clarity.
:11:43
We've got to start calling
some other places.
:11:46
l don't think l can
eat this stuff every day.
:11:48
lt was the Cannon Building.
You had it as ''Russell.''
:11:51
l fixed it.
:11:53
- Thank you.
- l really liked it, Ames.
:11:55
But boring, right?
:11:58
No. No. l really,
really liked it.
:12:01
- Ahem--
- Yes, dear?
:12:05
Somebody for you on three--
someone from Harper's.
:12:08
When did you start
talking to Harper's?
:12:10
l'm not. lt's probably nothing.
Could you send it to my voicemail?
:12:13
- Very good.
- By the way, Glo',
:12:15
that lipstick is the bomb.
:12:18
- Thanks, doll.
- Was it ''Midnight Mist''?
:12:24
- l've really got to stop doing that.
- What?
:12:27
All l do is give people
more reasons to assume l'm gay.
:12:30
l mean, lately,
it's everyone.
:12:32
The other night, l went out to dinner
with this guy from The Post--
:12:36
- Who?
- l can't tell you, he made me promise.
:12:38
Anyway, we're walking afterwards,
talking about Medicare for God's sakes,
:12:43
the next thing l know is we're standing
on the corner of 18th and ''T''...
:12:48
and he somehow managed
to slip his tongue down my throat.
:12:54
And l'm like, ''Wait a minute,
how'd this happen?''
:12:58
l don't understand.
- Neither did l.
