You are perhaps Peres’d out. Many of us scribblers have been linking to our pieces about Shimon Peres, and recounting our experiences with him. I have done the same, in a brief column. Terribly interesting guy. I learned that. For a time, I took him for a typical socialist dove — ho-hum. That wasn’t true. I am a Beginite, and a Sharon-nik, but I am glad for Peres’s life.

P.S. Is a Peres fan a Peresite? (I don’t think he’d mind a pun, under circumstances funereal or not.)
