More Lileks?
He said on Hugh Hewitt's show that he's going to start some new blogs to write screeds, political comments and pop culture commentary. The Bleat will remain as a personal diary. I've thought that it was conceived as a diary of Gnat's childhood from James' POV, which is an admirable project. I've tried keeping a journal, but people with depression should probably not do that. Whenever I would read it, I'd destroy everything I'd written. It seemed too whiny and bathetic.
That, being said, I look forward to reading his political comments and screeds. They've always been most entertaining to me. He's a great writer but his metier is invective and sarcasm and I find that wasted on stuff like Regrettable Food and Interior Desecrations. Bring it on, James!
