Pile On has his own take on Dr. Rice's confirmation hearings:

SARBANES: I think the secretary who adopts a unilateralist approach in the international environment may miss important opportunities to prevent conflicts and to build alliances. And in that regard I just note that it's not enough to have the ear of the president. I think the secretary of state must also win the ear of the world. Are you going to make friends abroad?RICE: I already know an awful lot of people and until one of them dies I couldn't possibly meet anyone else.
If you do nothing else today, read the whole thing.

Thanks for the link Miss Attila.
There is a cold beer waiting at the Institute visitors center for anyone who can name the movie and actress that delivered the Rice line quoted above.

Make that Audrey Hepburn.
Can you deliver the beer to Ms. Attila for safekeeping until I get to it?

Great idea. I'll give it to one of your kids, with instructions to hand it to dad.

Aww shucks. I was going to say Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's and then I read the comments.
Charade is a great film. The best line is from Tex (James Coburn) "Momma didn't raise no stupid children" this shortly before he is murdered of course.
Also the scene of Cary Grant taking a shower with his clothes on is priceless.

I'm pretty sure LMM didn't Google it, until it came time to verify the spelling.
