<description><![CDATA[<p>It is possible that this is not the gayest outfit ever. But it has to rank in the top 5, for sure. I think it just short circuited by gaydar.</p>

<p>Oh, and I *heart* Public Intern. Too funny.</p>]]></description>

"interest in [your] assignment" and the request for "bottled water" may mean he's thirsty...but it's for something else...brb, need to grab a "drink".</p>]]></description>
