I’d expect the Corner to be a bit slow today since much of the NR universe is heading to the WFB memorial service in NYC today (I’m on the train heading there now). Obviously, it’s not a joyous thing to say goodbye like this, but I must admit I’m looking forward to participating in something physical to celebrate the man’s life. Everything so far has been on TV, on a computer screen or on paper. I’m eager to see real human beings get together to show their appreciation and affection for Bill Buckley and his accomplishments. It feels somehow inappropriate to look forward to something as funereal as a memorial service, and yet I must say that’s exactly how I feel — hopefully for all the right reasons.
