Scott Locklin on the death of Marty Halpern

In his blog, Scott Locklin reminisces about the death of his buddy Marty Halpern. A sweet manly friendship. The only thing I can add is that to the best of my knowledge,  I do not tell jokes. That must have been the famous Cvitanović.

Now that I'm on Scott: Scott finds Mussolini a more talented writer than Hitler. I dunno, but that's a low threshold. I believe every thinking person should read Mein Kampf not for its literary value, but to understand that he wrote down everything he would eventually do when he was still just another freak in the Weimar Republic freak show. And still, the moron industrialists put him in the position of total power. They clearly did not read Das Buch.
