NEW YORK -- Brazilian supermodel Andrea Sande, best known as one of the
Heigh-Ho babes who escorts talk show host David Letterman onto the stage
at the beginning of each show, was married Saturday in a small ceremony to
Letterman uberfan Donald Giller.
Sande said she took up an offer from Giller to get all of her
appearances on "The Late Show with David Letterman" dubbed onto one tape
and fell in love with the 49-year-old Giller, nicknamed The Donz, who does
music autography and book typesetting at his upper, upper west side
apartment in Manhattan.
"Donzie is so much different than any other man I've dated," Sande cooed
at the wedding reception at Elaine's. "He's so complex, so brooding. And
he's so talented with his fingers."
Sande refused to comment on reports that the wedding was almost
cancelled when she couldn't get him out of his apartment to get a marriage
license, to get a tuxedo and to attend the wedding rehearsal.
"She got him out twice using the ploy that Rob (Burnett, Late Show
executive producer) would be there," said a source familiar with the two.
"That didn't work the third time, so she grabbed his Mac and ran out of
the room. He followed."
The wedding ceremony was peformed by Brother Theodore. The best man was
actor Bruce Willis performed in the band at the reception.

Dear Steve:
I am overwhelmed that after all of Donz's posts proclaiming the sanctity of
people's, expecially famous people's, right to privacy, that you still failed
to get his point, and flagrantly announced to the world his sacrosanct
relationship with Andrea, not to mention his agoraphobia. Now everyone knows
how reclusive and eccentric he is, as well as being an already married man
committing bigamy! He only left his apartment, not because of her charms, but
because she stole his computer, and he has some strange and abnormal love for
it. As to divulging the details of his wedding, I can only say, for shame!
Brother Theodore is a great Holy Man, who would only preside over a most
unusual coupling, and your mention of Bruce Willis brings to mind his dancing
in a wig and a bikini on the Late Show, again sullying a serious and sacred
moment in the Donz's life. Sure, I laughed at your post. I'm sure many people
did. But that doesn't make what you wrote right. I even now know where the Donz
lives--on the upper, upper West Side. I'll probably become a stalker, despite
my best intentions, and spend my time staring at the small, yellow glare of his
small window in the wee hours of the morning, with Andrea clinging to his back
as he continues to type away at his computer. So near, and yet, so far. I feel
dirty now, somehow, knowing that she calls him Donzie. It was just too much
information, Steve. I won't sleep well tonight. I'll be thinking of his
talented fingers...and thrashing guiltily on perspiration-soaked sheets.
Anyway, I hope they'll be very happy. She's got herself one hell of a guy.
Sincerely,
Sally

Larry Ryckman is an actual correspondent for The Associated Press.He might
be an editor now.
He was a classmate of mine in college. After college he travelled the
country working for The Associated Press. I went to work on a two-member
news staff for a daily newspaper. The paper still had the old teletype
wire that would print out stories on sheets of continuous paper. I'd have
to cut up the sheets of paper into individual stories and sometimes paste
together separate sheets to form one story. These sheets were then type
set. The wire was often garbled and if a story needed a byline for some
reason, like there was no dateline, and I couldn't read the name because
of the garble, I'd put Larry's name on it. So in this little podunk
newspaper, Larry might be writing about blue jeans sold under a fake label
in San Francisco and racial unrest in South Africa in the same day.
This concludes another insight that no one really gives a rat's ass about.

If this is a joke, just who *is* Donz honeymooning with? Perhaps the two
wedding stories got garbled, and our Donzie is in St. Bart's with Regina. =8-o

I just realized something. For someone who's into proofreading,
how could you miss canceled? :-)

Dear Steve:
He obviously made a deep impression on you. You do write like a real reporter,
albeit an amusing one. I doubt if AP would run your story on the Donz, however.
It would kill their credibility. Sorry I didn't mention Larry's name in my post
on your story, but it was your creation. :) And it was very well-written...so I
do give a rat's ass about your journalistic background!

John Bartlett, who designed Rosie Perez's dress, was a college classmate of
Conan O'Brien. (Harvard, '85.)

You too can write like an AP mastermind. Just follow these
simple steps.
1. Lead, (Or lede, as some spell it. I don't know which is the
proper spelling), The crux of the story. It answers who, what,
when, and where. Example, A Queens family was killed early
Sunday afternoon after a two-car accident on the Long Island
Expressway westbound at Exit 37.
2. Nut graf - This clarifies the lead. It's stuff you couldn't
fit into the lead, but is still important enough to mention...
3. Chronology - This goes through how the event happened step by
step.
4. Human Element - Quotes, paraphrasings, etc. This can be part
of the chronology or the Nut Graf. example: "I don't give a
rat's ass." said Bill Lehecka, a Long Island Native.
5. Conclusion - Something at the end of the story that will make
the reader think. Could be a quote or something else. It can
shock, amaze, or just leave you to ponder. Example: "It was a
pleasure to see Dave's comeback show," said Brad Hill, an
alt.fan.letterman NewsGroup member, "I cried like a little
girl." Of course if I misquoted someone, they can sue my ass
off. But we all know Brad would NEVER say that, right? Heh heh
heh...
By following these 5 simple steps, you too can fake an AP news
article... :-)
I can't believe I remembered all of this...

Neither can I, Bill, but I am impressed with your journalistic know-how. It
reminds me of the movie TEACHER'S PET. But you're a better teacher than Doris
Day. Do you give private lessons? Where did you learn how to write news? You
and Steve have a lot in common. I tried to get into Columbia's School of
Journalism, but (hee hee) encountered some sexism in getting in, much to my
innocent surprise. No kidding. I know it's hard to believe, but a few guys
decided that I could write, but my letters of recommendation didn't put me over
the top. I was naive enough to ask my former boss at ABC News to write a
letter. Ho ho ho. Lil ol' 22 year old me didn't know he was going to be
vindictive because I had said no to him. I managed to get hold of the letter
and read it. What a killer! No wonder they didn't take me. Anyway, I can vouch
for it, sexual harrassment is real, entrenched and deadly. But thanks for being
a good teacher over the computer, to both sexes. I enjoyed your advice on how
to write a news story. It was good.
