...sisters could hardly be more dissimilar-on or off the slopes. Christine's skiing form is immaculate: body bent in the classic "comma" position, skis and poles perfectly controlled, she is the picture of grace as she zigzags through the slalom gates, rarely even brushing the marker poles. Bah, snorts Marielle. "Skiing beautifully is an unimportant matter"-and she attacks a slalom course like a fullback, flailing furiously with her poles, bowling over the gates, diving headlong across the finish line. Her hell-bent style has its disadvantages: Marielle has broken her left leg three times-while Christine...

Beamed Lyndon, "That means more to me than anything." She is not even slightly domestic, shrugs off kitchen skills, saying, "I can always learn to do those things." She is fascinated by politics, often dons a bathrobe, pads across the hall to sprawl on the President's bed and talk over the morning headlines. Once determined to be a history teacher...
