Vidal—Never More Vital

Thank you, Doug Ireland, for pointing us to what looks to be a good book about a great man!

Am delighted to have discovered not only your post but ironically I posted an item only yesterday honouring the incomparable Gore Vidal in my blog http://neilemacview.blog.ca/main/ entitled “Time to revisit Gore Vidal for the answers.” Please drop by and say hello. I’m delighted to say “In These Times” is now loaded in my blog.ca’s RSS feed and will be used daily to keep up with your timely news. Thanks for honouring Gore Vidal too. namast

I’m using this vehicle to express my deep gratitude to Mr. Vidal.

His collection of essays have put a mighty wind in my sails, many times when the whether was dank and cold and I couldn’t see the shore.

Ok, enough, already.

I do hope GV reads this, soaks up some of the good stuff laying out and about in the hinterlands—it’s here, all right. Just scrape off the mold.  THERE!

GV is America’s greatest and most honest social treasure. I fear that when he is gone, there will be no one to take his place.

To vidal or not to vidal is not the question, it’s the answer. I’ve created a verb from his name. Ever since I read his “Imperial America Reflections on the United States of Amnesia”, I’ve also begun a new blog. “vidalism’s apprentice.”
Drop by and say ‘hello’. Come on, be ‘vidalic’, flaunt me some facts.
