Oh, at first it was confusing. Just the idea of computers was like — whoa! I'm eleven hundred years old! I had trouble adjusting to the idea of Lutherans.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Well, all I can say is, boxy suits are the best thing that ever happened to Madeleine Albright; if she's tried to pull off the Matrix-wear, tragedy might have ensued. Also, by all accounts, she did not need to intimidate with her clothes; she could skewer a guy just by looking.

I do think it's pretty weird how much attention Rice's clothes get, though. Like, I know she's a woman and therefore everybody has to bring up the fact she's a woman, but that's more detail than I could tell you about what I am wearing today myself, you know?

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I note that oral-sex-with-condom is the preferred safe sex version, and it would not seem too outre -- if indeed a bit fussy -- if a lady doctor insisted on Very Safe Fellatio. Note that the aftermath of such a thing is usually the disposal of the rubber in the nearest garbage receptacle.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The only comparable female's fashion I can think of is Madeline Albright. Well, and Margaret Thatcher. Who are Condi's fashion contemporaries?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

That, or out the car window.

What?

The evil is this way?

Who are Condi's fashion contemporaries?

Other women politicians -- Hillary Clinton, Laura Bush, ...

I dunno. She's in her middle 40s, and all I can think of are women a decade or more older, and Hollywood people, who don't count. I suppose part of it all is that Rice is slim, and likes to show off that part.

Which, you know what? I bet that the person who waxes the Secretary of State's legs has to have security clearance. Heh heh heh.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Who are Condi's fashion contemporaries?

The Mesdames Bush and Clinton; Nancy Pelosi.

Didn't she just turn 50?

Maybe the thing that bugs me the most is that I hate Condi, but after reading the article and seeing the picture, I do see Condi as sexy and powerful.

I feel dirty....

I defer to the Capitol Hill fangirl. If Clinton and Nancy Pelosi are her cohort, then yeah, an avoidance of pink peplum jackets is rather the departure. Can't complain, really, as long as the Matrix thing doesn't actually extend to real foreign policy.
