Whither Condoleeza?
Oh I cannot tell you how glad I am Valentine's Day is over. Never has a holiday demanded so much expectation and subsequent nausea within 24 hours since Christmas and New Year's, so lots of us are in recovery. Needless to say tears were shed, chocolate was eaten. A friend and I embraced yesterday, we could say nothing but wimpered like children. "It's over... it's ok.." Don't get me started on St. Patrick's. But anyway, what with all that's going on in the world, why should we care about 'i didn't get flowers' 'he bought Russell-Stover' 'is it still raining? by the way let's just be friends', i really think we need to know how Condi spent her Valentines Day. Did Henry Kissinger come over for Russell-Stover? Harvey's Bristol Cream? Did she practice her piano? Go running with George Bush? Did she watch Napoleon Dynamite on TBS? Shovel Snow. These are the things I want to know. I mean i KNOW Hillary Clinton didn't have a great Valentines Day. But what's the poop? Welp, here is some info. Not riveting, but fun nonetheless.

WMA signs Condoleezza Rice
Agency pacts with outgoing Secretary of State
By TED JOHNSON
Rice
Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has signed with the William Morris Agency, the first step in what is being called the “reinvention and evolution” of her career.
The agency said Rice will focus on books, lecture appearances, philanthropic activities and “new business initiatives in the media, sports and communications sectors.”
Rice will be represented by WMA chief Jim Wiatt and Wayne Kabak.
Kabak said that Rice will be writing two books: One will focus on her diplomatic career, and the other will be about her parents, the Rev. John Wesley Rice Jr. and Angelena Ray, whom her daughter has referred to as “educational evangelists” for their influence on pursuing academic excellence.
The diplomatic memoir will probably be written first, Kabak said.
If the past is any guide, Rice will be among a flood of former administration figures pursuing book deals and other projects.
President Bush says he is planning to write his memoirs, and Laura Bush recently landed a deal with a publisher for her tome.
The agency currently represents House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Sen. Byron Dorgan, Sen. Jim Webb and former Sen. Fred Thompson. In the past the agency has repped former President Gerald Ford and his wife Betty, Gov. Mitt Romney and Sen. John Edwards.
GERALD FORD??!!!!
