to my friend Matt Welch, who just got a pretty major job at the L.A. Times, to make the opinion page better.
Rumor has it he’ll even sport the LYT-shirt at staff meetings from time to time, but that’s unconfirmed.
I don’t know how many of my regular readers are familiar with his work, but you oughta be.







I found him, just as I found you, through Ms. Seipp via Mr. Ford. Funny how that works, huh? I love his writing, and as Amy Alkon said in Cathy’s comments today, he’s for whatever is smartest or least dumb. What could be better than that? Not much, in this scary old world. I hope he wears “you” to the office.
