Art Buchwald, RIP

On his own terms. I heard him tell a story that I just love, about visiting France and being thoroughly reamed by a taxi driver and responding, "Oh je suis, suis je?" There there's his hilarious auction introduction, more rant than pitch, to a famous Bill Newman painting—and those are just things that people overheard him say, not even published writing.

Yeah, I always liked him. A marvelous antidote to the serious-minded, he often actually seemed subversive, to me.
