Take one part vacuous beauty;
add one part vanity and two parts ego.
Spray with ozone-depleting hairspray,
cover with two layers of makeup,
pour into a tight dress and stilettos
then let stand in the elements
for at least twelve hours overnight.
Allow to queue, headshots in hand,
eagerly anticipating imminent fame.
Wait until the rush starts,
then add a car with pollution issues
and a healthy dose of NYC paranoia.
Stir in a few brave bag-snatchers,
mix in the last minute rush,
then stand well back.

Mike, thanks mate. I'm still laughing about the original story (and thankful no one was seriously hurt).

Jen, thanks very much. The story was so fantastical, I couldn't help be inspired.
