Gregory has put up a post of a Sky News broadcast which includes my blog godfather, Tim Blair. Here's Greg's post.
As I told Greg in the comments, it looks like Tim must be in a witness protection program. Didn't recognize him with the beard, and he seems to be sitting in a secluded cabin (kind of like the place where Jimmy Cagney and his gang hid out in White Heat).
Well, Tim *does* look to be in good health! And certainly in command of himself (unlike a certain person occupying a certain office in a certain national capital).
ReplyDeleteTim came close to filing his last story over the New Years period. He had a major heart attack and it was touch and go for a while.
ReplyDeleteHis healthy looks are probably because he quit smoking fags and swallowing booze. And he has the hide to still call himself a journalist.
Wow, Mick, I don't recall hearing that he had a heart attack. Hope he's fully recovered.
ReplyDeleteHe seems to be back to his witty best. He wrote a good story about his adventures in the Quadrant.

It was a period when it seemed all of my favorite bloggers were having health problems.
Your good self, Mark Styne, Gearald Vanderleun at American Digest and then Tim.
Tim Blair. Now that's a name I've not heard in a long time. A looonng time.
ReplyDeleteThe Obi Wan of bloggers.
Glad I could pass on some Tim news to all the Blairites here.
