Goodness!

I'm blushing.

Well I'll have to watch the show to see you. :)

Pictures = fill the tip jar? Give us a peek and we'll show you the money!

She tried that once but lost her nerve. Still wondering what Megan would look like debating an item of clothing.

Of course, you realize this means we have to meet. ;-)

Somehow I always knew!

Look out Meg, I hear that Pejman is a real shark.

Especially once he hears the lady in question has the Instapundit "She's a Babe" seal of approval.

For "a rare and valuable picture" of the Reynolds-decreed babe, check out this from Dreck's erstwhile home: http://morethanzerosum.com/bin/nycblogfest.jpg

As it is written she's "front and center among the revelers." (http://www.morethanzerosum.com/archives/000904.html)

I believe I've found another photo of the camera-shy Ms. McArdle. Turns out "babe" was more literal than I had realized. She is cute though.

That was a cute baby, but I'm afraid I can't claim credit. That's actually the nephew of our web site designer, who was a little flummoxed when I couldn't find any pictures of myself.

Damn. Thought I had a scoop. Not even the right gender.

Posted by: Sean E on December 16, 2002 12:41 PM

Jane is very attractive, but y'all single folks beware that she's probably taller than you. Adjust your fantasies accordingly.

Posted by: Leonard on December 16, 2002 2:40 PM

Not taller than me. Heh.

Posted by: David on December 16, 2002 4:35 PM

Well geez guys, If you really wanted to know how much of a babe Megan is, you could have just asked me! I've gotten to *meet* her in public, and let me tell you, shes every bit the babe you'll see on tv and more!

Posted by: Nick M. (Arrogant Rants) on December 16, 2002 5:12 PM

Leonard - Not that I'm single, but I don't recall having anything against tall women. (I'm 6' 0", which is neither tall nor short for a man. I can't recall dating anyone taller than me, but I might have.) I had a few tallish cousins and they had something against dating short men. Is this a bigger deal for men or women?

EXT. COFFEE SHOP. Day.

JIM is sitting alone at a table, smoking a cigarette. He is dressed in black, but disdains a beret.

Ennui is palpable as he speaks.

JIM Yeah, I've seen Jane Galt. She's nothing special. I don't really know what the fuss is all about.

He takes a slow drag of the cigarette, exhaling it at passersby as they amble past the COFFEE SHOP.

JIM Nope, not really a big deal. I mean, come now. How attractive can someone that articulate and opinionated really be?

This last point JIM appears to feel is devastating and conclusive. He lets it rest for a while, smoking his cigarette in silence.

Then some thought motivates him to lean slightly forward, towards us. He looks nervous. He speaks, and as he continues, JIM occasionally glances left or right with narrowed eyes.

JIM There's no reason to maintain any undue interest in her. Plenty of other women out there, you know.

He is suddenly animated.

JIM Look, there's one now! What a hottie!

We PULL OUT to a view of the street. It is completely empty. A plastic bag is blown about the cobblestones.

When the camera returns to the COFFEE SHOP the table that JIM sat at is now empty.

At the edge of the camera's field of view, a TALL MAN and a TALLER WOMAN can be seen quickly rounding a corner, just out of sight. The TALL MAN is dressed in black.

JIM (distant sounding. barely audible) Hurry Jane.

The TALL COUPLE escape, lost to our view. We ZOOM IN on the streetcorner as if to follow, but too late.

An OFFICER of the law emerges from the same street. We are still zoomed in, so he is only seen from his belt up to his neck, his uniform filling the screen.

OFFICER Nothing to see here. Move along.

The camera angle is dragged sharply right, as if we are being hurried away. Footsteps echo in the distance, until we FADE OUT.

Jim - As long as you're dreaming, might as well dream big, or tall, as the case may be.

Posted by: David Walser on December 17, 2002 10:13 AM

Jim, that was utterly fantastic.

Posted by: d Smith on December 18, 2002 12:08 PM

Hear, hear.

Posted by: Jane Galt on December 18, 2002 4:49 PM

As applause fill the room, the actor who played JIM makes it to the podium. He's got some kind of unshaven-but-wearing-Armani look going for him. It probably doesn't work, but this is Hollywood.
ED NORTON
I'd really like to thank the Academy...
Talk of the town is that he wore lifts for the role. JANE, of course, played herself.

Posted by: Jim on December 19, 2002 12:23 PM

Hard to follow a post like Jim's. But I've just stumbled on a scoop of sorts: Doc Weevil caught the elusive 'Jane live from the WTC' on film. She's even wearing a nametag. But why the censored eyes, Jane?

And is that our heroine at the back left of this table? Dunno. www.doctorweevil.org/Blogapalooza/Palooza13.jpg
