Transitions :: Jim Capozzola

Jim Capozzola died today. He was 44 years old and funny and a great writer and the constant and loving companion of a bulldog. And he was our friend.

Much of his works in the blog form are at The Rittenhouse Review, a Philadelphia Journal of Politics, Finance, Ethics, and Culture.

I'd like to write that the news of Libby's commutation killed him, or that he died laughing, but it was a lack of health care that killed him, an undiagnosed illness and the accidental combination of a minor blow to the head and an anti-coagulant.

Note from MB: Susie has a wonderful eulogy.

Jim was my best friend, and I can't believe he's really gone. What am I going to do without my daily dose of Jim e-mails?

But I know he'd like to have people think that the Scooter Libby commutation did him in rather than the nasty fall he took six weeks ago. Better story.

It's just a shame, that's all.
