First Lady

While walking around New York a few weeks ago, you might have seen a photo of Jackie Kennedy on the cover of New York Magazine, and thought to yourself, "When did Jackie O look so... mannish?" Of course, upon closer inspection, you realized it was President Clinton in drag, with the headline, "Bill Clinton: First Lady." This isn't the first time, as Steven Tyler puts it, the dude looks like a lady:

"I haven't been in drag in 50 years. In my high-school yearbook, there's a picture of me and a buddy of mine wearing dresses, and we're, uh, holding each other," --Bill Clinton, New York Magazine, October 22nd.

So nice to see the ex-prez take it with such good humor. By the way, and this is kind of random, but did you know Bill Clinton is a crossword enthusiast? He even wrote the clues for one of the NYT crossword puzzle a few months ago (thanks Dawne!) but a word to the wise-- it's a really tough one. Take a shot at it. New Yorkers can tune in to Ch. 13 (PBS) tonight at 10pm to see President Clinton in Wordplay, a documentary about crossword puzzles and the people who love them. I saw this film last summer and it's great. It's also kind of nice to see public figures outside their element as well. For a few moments they are unfazed about the state of world politics, or the speed of that last four-seam fastball. Rather, their entire existence rests on knowing what is that five letter word for a chocolate substitute (!?!?!)

Should I give you the answer? It's kind of an easy one...
