About Me:
Note my Chairman Mao-chic clothing and my lofty sneer. I
am the supreme ruler of a small East Asian meritocracy,
where merit is defined by how willing you are to sacrifice
for the party. I like to be addressed as "Dear Leader". I
am 5'2" tall,
drink Hennessey cognac, and own a collection of 20,000
movies which includes the complete James Bond series. I
possess several nuclear devices, and would like to discuss
trading them for humanitarian aid. Also: I will turn your
house into a sea of flames. Juche!

Who I Want to Meet:
Various South Korean and Swedish actresses. I have several movie parts I wish to cast. Please make time in your schedule to meet with my casting agents... or my black-clad, heavily-armed abduct-you agents. It's your choice. If you accept my offer, please flash the lights in your house twice.

we ask him "Josh, who wins: whale or
shark" and Josh answers right off "I've
actually thought a lot about this. It
really depends on whether it's on land
or in water. If it's on land, really the
only chance the whale has is to land on
the lion right off. Or possibly roll on
the lion. But either way, the lion's not
really going to be able to do anything
to the whale." We were all blown away.

discovered his identity and threatened
to kill him, he gave me a number and
told me to wait in line. I was number

When I told him that under no

beautiful necklace of origami cranes)
and sent it from New York, anyway.
When my high school boyfriend dumped
me and I hated all of man-kind, Josh
sent me a book called "How to Heal the
Hurt by Hating," and mints with a note
saying "See, maybe we're not _all_
that bad." Josh may be smart and and
funny and know lots about war and
