So long Jim,
MLB

The man who inspired the phrase "Jane, you ignorant slut...."

Also, a forerunner to ther Carvill-Matalin marriage, he was married to liberal-minded columnist Marianne Means.

"Point-Counterpoint" was the Sunday night background to making lunch sandwiches for the coming week's field work, sitting in the kitchen, peering back into the living room to watch him spar, first with Nicholas von Hoffman, and then with the late Shana Alexander..

R.I.P.

I used to love his columns on writing. I read them every week, hoping to improve my skills, only to move forward into a time where it's bexoming a lost art.

RIP Mr. Kilpatrick and thank you for the education.
