...finally make it over to Lucien's table at the back of the bar, I discover he's married. Also, he has bad teeth. I move on to Adam, who looks better in person than he did on camera, but his brother Alex, 23, is more my type. We flirt; he asks me for my number and wants to take a picture of us together. He pushes the camera button on his console, and the snap is instantly sent to www.remotelounge.com where we can check it out later (along with the 1,649 pictures taken by other Remote patrons that...
