Senator Clinton pic--provide a caption

I saw this picture of New York Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton on Matt Drudge's Website. The link below goes to a Boston Globe story regarding New Hampshire voters warming to Mrs. Clinton. I suspect it's an older pic. Was wondering if any blog readers care to suggest a caption for it...

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Zowie really your real name? Yes.

You're kidding, right? No.

How do you pronounce it? Rhymes with these words: wowie, Howie (as in Howie Mandel) and Maui.

Where did it come from? The Zowie family originated in Germany (Bavaria, to be specific). My grandfather's birthname was Sylvester Sebastian Zahnweh (pronounced "Tsahn-veh" and means "Toothache" in German), and a few years later his name was Americanized. He became Sebastian Paul Zowie.

When did you become a Christian? October 1981, reassurance of salvation April 1984.

You seem to be a quirky person with a bizarre sense of humor. Why? I suffer from a desire to keep myself constantly occupied and entertained. If I'm not writing or working on something that has to be done, then I say or do goofy things. Primarily, they're designed to make me laugh, but as I get older, I think I'm getting better at making others laugh. Still, considering the garbage that many Americans think is funny today (Knocked Up, for example), I tend to roll my eyes when people tell me my jokes aren't working.

Who are your favorite authors to read? Ray Bradbury, Harry Turtledove, Stephen King, Frank Peretti. Michael Crichton. Haven't read Ted Dekker yet, but I'm told he's very good.

Do you ever receive e-mail from readers? Sometimes. I received some very positive e-mails after a column about my cousin's death by a drunk driver was published. Another drunk driving column about a horribly-disfigured young lady resulted in an angry e-mail from a Wynonna Judd fan (I'd mentioned her since she'd been arrested on a DUI). And then, Imdb comments of mine about the loathsome show Seinfeld resulted in this kid writing me a very angry letter. I feel sorry for him and from the fan.

If you ever became famous, do you think you and your family would ever do a reality television show? Absolutely not.

Ok, so what are your favorite Papermate pens? Yes.

Seriously, what are your favorite all-time Papermates? Probably Pro-fit or Comfortmate.

Whom will you be voting for in November? Not Barack Obama!
