If it were not a joyous luxury to blog, I would not do it. It’s so nice to find that such an influential person as Peggy Noonan feels just as privileged to be able to read a blog, as I feel to write a blog.

I remember what the late great Christopher Reeve said on "The Tonight Show" 20 years ago. He was the second guest, after Rodney Dangerfield. Dangerfield did his act and he was hot as a pistol. Then after Reeve sat down Dangerfield continued to be riotous. Reeve looked at him, gestured toward him, looked at the audience and said with grace and delight, "Do you believe this is free?" The audience cheered. That’s how I feel on their best days when I read blogs.
