Here he is with Jenny Kijowski leaving the office with a box of stuff cleared off of his desk. (Partial list of said box: Tongue Joy, tongue mounted vibrator and attachments; Viagra sample pack; Penis extender weight kit with instructional video; Family pictures; CB2000 male chastity harness; AC/DC figurine and “ The Accommodator” chin-mounted dildo.)

Grant was very nervous about having to deliver a bunch of corny (and in some cases outright offensive) lines to a gaggle of models, so Carrie offered to help out by letting him practice them on her at the office. Check out Carrie feigning modelesque-indifference as she puffs her imaginary Gauloise.

Here are just a few of the choice lines he was rehearsing:
"I'm going outside to make out. Care to join me?"
"Honey, your dad doesn't have a penis. He's got a paintbrush!"
"You give me the hardest semi I have ever had."
"Hey baby, wanna go halfsies on a bastard child?"

And let's not forget my personal favorite:
"You are, by far, the most interesting piece of ass i've talked to all evening."

Yeah, all of a sudden his trepidation is starting to make a little more sense, right?

As Grant and I were leaving the office for lunch, Grant went over to speak with John K., one of Nerve's programmers, who from behind appeared to be reading a book on the couch. Upon closer examination it was revealved that he was playing the old "taking a nap while pretending to read a book" trick. So after several failed to attempts to wake him (note the earplugs), Grant decided to not bother with the question and instead decided to...

I earned $50,000 from the National Enquirerer for capturing photographic evidence of Michael Martin's social life. Seriously, this guy's more elusive than the Yeti.

Not about to be upstaged by a non-employee, Alisa and Emma whipped out their boobies and repped for Nerve.

So a few minutes after Alex made out with Noah, we noticed him hanging around Lisa - yet another intern. *gasp*

Bwa-hahahaha! Here's Grant surreptitiously giving Alex the ol' "Get a Load of This Guy" face for the cam. (Bonus points to the guy over Grant's right shoulder laying down the double-ironic "Who does this guy think he is making fun of that other guy" face. Ha!)

And then the next thing you know he's quasi-passed out (check out the open mouth - noice!) on Nerve intern Noa, who tried to resuscitate him with a firm grab of his titty.

Early evening at Pierot. The free booze was flowing like mud at this point so a few us told the bartenter to just keep putting shots of vodka on the bar and we started passing them out throughout the party. Things go ugly quick.
