    41

    Artie is the editor of the MadAtoms blog and constantly gets called into the boss's office to get yelled at for the filth that's posted here. He's from Los Angeles (Glendale), so punk police are afraid of him.

    42

    Randy Crenshaw's largely foolish belief that he will succeed in this industry stems entirely from a single incident in high school where he came up with the exact premise to Quantum Leap without ever having seen an episode of that show. He's been to the top of both the real Eiffel Tower in Paris and the ½ scale replica in Las Vegas.

  • Katy Rae

    Katy is equal parts pirate and ninja; but she is also pretty clumsy. So you would probably stand a good chance of winning if you were ever to duel.

    Katie F. Ward has lived in a bunch of places so, she roots for several different football teams and has a ranking system only she can understand. She tries to eat organic food, but hasn't ruled out Restylane. She loves Jay-Z, Jeff Buckley, and Celine Dion equally. Oh, and she's a hott mess. Seriously.

    Martha considers writing for this site to be her real job, which earns her just enough to pay her friends to hang out with her and listen to her constantly whine and complain about dudes in LA and not having a real "real job." She is extremely good-looking.
