"William F. Buckley's publication continues to tweak libs and confound progressives while "standing athwart history yelling stop" (as Bill frequently said). It used to drive the communists crazy."
Yes, in fairness NR has some very smart people writing for it. I subscribe to it to challenge my own views.

I’ve read a number of Mr Buckley’s books- not political ones, but a couple of his books on sailing and an entertaining one called “Cancel your own dammed subscription “ or Something to that effect— letters from people who liked or hated his magazine.
He was a very good writer and, from what I’ve heard, a nice guy

As I've posted previously, two of my Classmates independently rode hotel elevators with the good doctor along with his unmasked security guards (Fauci was masked). I never asked either Classmate which hotel they were staying at but assure you that he didn't stay on campus. I believe at least of my Classmates volunteered what hotel they were at but, honestly, it went in one ear and out the other.

Twould be nice if Biden's cancer story yesterday had some Covid fog origins, something temporary.
It was bizarre and was the same story he told a while ago, with a different ending (asthma, not cancer).

No one ever said on their deathbed "I wish I had spent more time at work." Gave this some additional thought. Would Mother Teresa have been an exception?

I would think so, but she probably never looked at the service she game to so many as"work" in the traditional sense. Remember the old axiom, choose to do what you love and you'll never "work" a day in your life.

A friend who graduated from Dartmouth sometimes teases me that HC grads are workaholics and retire later than most people.
