Well, in the 1980s, I was a very heavy drinker.

And there was a restaurant.

Anna was not the editor of Vogue yet.

And I was tipsy.

And when I was tipsy, I also thought I was, at best, bisexual.

So I started flirting with Anna.

Many years later, she became the editor of Vogue.

I've never told you this story, have I?

And I think that, not to digress, but I think if you're a gay man and you think a woman's beautiful, it can be the highest form of friendship.

So she became the editor of Vogue.

I always wanted to work at Vogue.

I had a cousin in the old days.

You know, Vogue used to be twice a month.

And she was an illustrator, and she said, come visit.

So I worked at Vogue.

But concurrent with that, which was called the British model, I had a newspaper job.

And from 1985 to 1991, I wrote something called the William Norwich column in the New York Daily News.

This is analog days.

And then two years at the New York Post.

When my office in Vogue and I would close the door, perhaps a conflict of interest, and write my column, 1,200 words, six days a week.
