Bottled Promise

From Beautiful Girls

By Scott Rosenberg

Paul: Super-models are beautiful girls, Will. A beautiful girl can make you dizzy, like you've been drinking Jack and Coke all morning. She can make you feel high; full of the single greatest commodity known to man--promise. Promise of a better day. Promise of a greater hope. Promise of a new tomorrow. This particular aura can be found in the gait of a beautiful girl. In her smile, in her soul, the way she makes every rotten little thing about life seem like it's going to be okay.

The super-models, Willy? That's all they are. Bottled promise. Scenes from a brand new day. Hope dancing in stiletto heels.
