Tony Snow gone at 53

I never met Tony Snow, though I had some interaction with him via email and on the phone. He was always as cordial and charming as his public persona.  What a loss to his family, of course first of all, and to our media culture.  And what a reminder how lucky we are to be alive.  What did that man say? “As flies to wanton boys, are we to the gods; they kill us for their sport.”

UPDATE:  Some pathetic projection from the Associated Press.
