There are lots of blogs that really are worth reading. The very personal tribute to William F. Buckley in my friend, Ben House's blog, is most assuredly the former and not the latter.
I have been taken aback this week by how much WFB's passing saddens me. I confess there were whole years in which I scarcely gave him a conscious thought, and yet knowing he is no longer minding rudder and mast in this tempest is deeply unsettling. Where is a man to fill such shoes in such a time as this? God knows.
Thanks for the link. Mr. House penned a lovely tribute.
What an excellent and insightful article.
