<\/span>She [<\/span>Dorrit Moussaieff]<\/span> <\/span>told me she was friends with Katharine Graham. Then she tried to bring me onto the floor, where 14 large Icelandic men were glorying in the craziest athletic accomplishment in their country’s history.<\/p>\n

„I don’t think I can go this way,“ I said.<\/p>\n

„Yes you can; if you’re with me you can,“ she said, approaching the arena guard. „I’m the wife of the President; that’s the President,“ she said, nodding at me while dragging me past the guard.<\/p>\n

And so I passed through the tunnel and onto the floor, nominally the president of Iceland, allowing for a pretty direct look at Nordic joy. A few minutes later, I asked the players to describe this happiness, this bliss that they had brought to their 300,000 fellow citizens, who have never tasted Olympic gold.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
