My wife could work as a spy. She notices everything. And since my eyesight is bad, she always fills me in on anything interesting she spots. So yesterday after the debate, after scanning the room, she said: - There’s Gorodnicheva standing over there. She got hair extensions. So of course, as I was walking past Gorodnicheva, I said: - Hi! Did you get hair extensions? Great. They really suit you. Have you seen the movie X-Men? There was that guy whose eyes shot out blasts of fire whenever he took off his glasses. That is exactly the look I got from the member of the Civic Chamber of the Russian Federation (a state-appointed consultative body). But I wasn’t reduced to ashes. I even found the strength to invite her to a debate. She said she’d come, but only if she had a “worthy opponent.” UPD. Yes, and one more bit of society gossip: She got married. “To a good man.”
