Secretary of State Parties With Kiss

When the contents of President Bush's iPod were scrutinized a few years ago, supporters cautioned against too much psychoanalysis of his affinity for country incorrigible George Jones, the Knack's ode to an underage girl ('My Sharona') and John Fogerty's painfully dorky baseball tune, 'Centerfield.'

So what are we to make of the revelation that the ever-composed Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice digs Kiss' 'Rock and Roll All Nite'?

Rice recently conducted some high-level talks with tongue-flicking Gene Simmons and the rest of the aging, dragon-booted hard rock band. Both of their entourages were in Stockholm, Sweden last week; the band had a gig, and the Secretary of State had the fate of the free world to discuss at a conference on Iraq.

When the band invited her to a late-night gathering in the executive lounge of the local Sheraton, she readily accepted. Condi, who is a classically trained pianist, told reporters her musical taste ranges from Beethoven to Bruce Springsteen. Kiss, apparently, falls somewhere in between.

No doubt she's unaware that some fans believe the group took its name as an acronym for Knights in Satan's Service. She could, however, take some helpful advice in dealing with her boss from another long-rumored origin of the band's name -- Keep It Simple, Stupid.
