Susie Bright on RU Sirius show

Mark Frauenfelder 4:33 pm Thu Feb 22, 2007

The RU Sirius Show just ran two consecutive really
sharp
and funny
interviews with my friend, the great sex writer Susie Bright. Then they
published a transcript of the first show on 10
Zen Monkeys. (They say part two will be posted in about a week.)

Susie Bright: … some of us have started Bet on Ted [betting pool]. You just pick your
date. We're going to give it a year. Any time this year. And to win,
something has to happen with Ted [Haggard] that gets into the news or into the
courts. We've come up with a list of things -– all of them involve Ted
cracking, and it hitting a news report. If you have the lucky date,
then you win half the pot and the other half goes to our worthy cause:
LYRIC.. If nobody gets the
right date — or Ted sneaks by all year and nothing comes out — then
the whole pot will go to LYRIC too. So bet on Ted! I'm hoping we get
somewhere with it.
