Oh the progress I have made, or what Kyle Smith told me recently at our editor’s wedding
Smith: You look glamorous.
Me: Thank you.
Smith: You’re welcome.
Me: Yeah, when I moved to New York a few years ago I was kind of screwed up.
Smith: Huh. Now that I think about it, I guess you did look a little rough.
Me: Ha, thanks.
Smith: Like you used to do heroin.
Me: Wow – seriously?
Smith: Or like you knew people who did heroin.

1st show (and tell)
WANT to know the one question that unlocks the deepest, darkest secrets of someone’s past?
Forget “Where’d you go to college?” (too obvious), and “What Strawberry Shortcake character did you most closely identify with growing up?” (too cliche, and obviously – Blueberry Muffin).
Forget “How many people have you slept with over the course of your entire lifetime?” (too subtle).
