...stepped into Japan's national nightmare. A former British Airways stewardess who prided herself on being, "chic, sophisticated and smart," Lucie sometimes did her hair even before going to the gym for a workout. So it made sense she would have her hair freshly coiffed now, the natural blond mane cut straight and falling across her striking, almost patrician English features like a curtain of glass beads. Concealing her blue eyes were a pair of oversize, Gucci-style sunglasses. Her nails were perfect little half-ellipses, the cuticles neatly trimmed...
...John S. McCain (R-Ariz.) is on a crusade to rescue democracy in America. With his rakish grin and heroic silver mane, McCain promises to deliver us from the ills of a corrupt campaign finance regime. His ragtag band of rebels, including those muckraking scamps at The New York Times and the Washington Post, wages a guerrilla campaign against the Establishment. The amazing thing is that he hasn’t yet been offed by The Man, a fat fellow smoking Cohiba cigars in a cavernous K Street office who commands legions of anti-McCain lackeys—a deceptively...
...wasn't an overnight success. At 18, Orville Richard Burrell (his oft untamed mane earned him the nickname Shaggy) left Kingston, Jamaica, for Brooklyn, N.Y., to launch a singing career.

Fried casts a perfect Southern golden boy look with close cropped, blonde hair whereas Kolarik's black mane flows all over the place. Fried hails from Georgia, the son of a doctor (and the co-owner of the Macon Whoopee of the East Coast Hockey League), and Kolarik was born into a blue-collar home in Pennsylvania...
When running for the Senate, there's a problem in being the Congressman Most Likely to Be Mistaken for a Page. You may no longer need a stentorian voice or mane of white hair to graduate to a seat in the American House of Lords, but a little gravitas, a bit of Olympian detachment or at least a few outsize personality quirks help. Hillary has the latter in spades and rock-star fame. And while Rudy Giuliani may have been too knee-in-the-groin nasty to attract all the anti-Hillary votes, the fresh-faced Lazio could be just...
