Sunday morning coming down

I probably spent too much time with the paper version of the WSJ yesterday, but:

  1. P. J. O'Rourke's article on cars nearly brought tears to my eyes. Though not from laughter as one would expect from his work - although it was funny. This was a unrequited love story, so they were (nearly) tears of sadnesss. P. J. is a terrific writer. Everything of his is informative, funny, well-crafted and surprising.
  2. Also, Peggy Noonan chimed in on Judge Sotomayor. Peggy's speaches, when delivered properly, are a real thing of beauty. How can her prose meant for reading be so . . .so . . . just above average?
