It’s good to be back!
Monday Night Football, in the dark.
More Hitch. I may spend all day watching clips of him pissing folks off.
Take 15 to listen to some rhetoric from the gifted Christopher Hitchens, who died yesterday.

Two of my favorites: Andrew Sullivan and Christopher Hitchens together in 2002. More from the session here. (from the Daily Dish)
One of our lunches, at Café Milano, the Rick’s Café of Washington, began at 1 P.M., and ended at 11:30 P.M. At about nine o’clock (though my memory is somewhat hazy), he said, “Should we order more food?” I somehow crawled home, where I remained under medical supervision for several weeks, packed in ice with a morphine drip. Christopher probably went home that night and wrote a biography of Orwell. His stamina was as epic as his erudition and wit.
Thank you, Heart.
