I fall in lust watching C-Span’s Book TV. The last time it was a prim and proper historian who I believe was talking about Robert E. Lee and I just wanted to drag her down from the podium and perform very inappropriate acts all over her in front of the charmingly stodgy crowd that she was speaking to. Attractive women and ideas absolutely melt me. (editor’s note: the lady in question reappeared on Book TV. Elizabeth Brown Pryor…sigh )
As a Texan, I was appropriately spending some worship time with my Dallas Cowboys this afternoon, but I zip back and forth and suddenly…oh my goodness…there she is……Amy Chua. No. 1, I want to get her book “Day of Empire”. Secondly I’d love to sit in on some of her lectures at Yale Law School where she teaches as she’s a gifted communicator. But thirdly, I want a wild weekend with her. Or a hall pass to watch as she has a wild weekend with somebody else..preferably a coltish undergraduate Yale lass….you see I’ve been thinking this through as I’ve been watching her on ‘After Words’ on Book TV.
I want her appointed as the next Attorney General of the United States so I can think unclean thoughts when she testifies in front of Congress at her confirmation hearings. And…I’ll secretly fantasize about her water boarding me, wearing some sort of leather dress….or most anything from Condi’s wardrobe….
Other than that, I’m going to buy her damned book. Brilliant mind and….well you know…
