     There was much talk at The Party Of The Year on saturday night. My rather heebish friend Scott was bonkers over a girl whose name I dare not mention, save that he was rather drunk and refused to refer to her as anything but "The shikse Goddess". She reminded us all of Diane Keaton in Annie Hall. He was beside himself.
