An alert FrontBurnervian points us to the Facebook page of Madeleine Johnson, whereon you will discover that she is engaged to newsman Brett Shipp. Johnson is in-house counsel for Southwest Airlines, but she used to work in the city attorney’s office in Dallas, which is where we presume the happy couple met — Shipp filing gratuitous open-records requests just so he’d have an excuse to visit Johnson and pick up the documents. If Zac weren’t writing the cover story of our February issue right now, I’m sure he’d give us the first couple pages of the meet-cute romantic comedy about Shipp and Johnson. Print deadlines are FrontBurner’s worst enemy. You’ll just have to make do with this Q&A Johnson did with Inside Counsel.
