(Condi) Rice compares work to love
Edited on Wed Dec-07-05 07:05 PM by sonicx
KIEV, Ukraine -- Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice told university students Wednesday that finding one's ideal major in college or the perfect life's work is like falling in love.

Rice struck an easygoing, sometimes jocular tone with an audience of mostly English-speaking students at Shevchenko University in the Ukrainian capital. She told a story about going off to college intent on studying to be a concert pianist but finding herself seduced by the study of the Soviet Union.

"I don't have any Russian blood that I know of. I had never been to the Soviet Union at that time and yet I became very, very interested in it," Rice said. "It's a little bit like love. You can't explain why it happens to you."

She advised the students, "Find what it is you love. Find what it is you're just interested in because you're interested in it and you'll be better at doing it."

Rice, 51, is unmarried. She is sometimes squired to formal events by former pro football player Gene Washington.

2. Bush's Black Mamba is at it again!
Rice, 51, is unmarried.

I am sure she takes BOB with her wherever she goes (BOB = Battery Operated Boyfriend).

Her nazi dominatrix wardrobe leaves little to the imagination.

Like the poisonous Black Mamba snake, Condi is truly wicked and deadly!
