Honoring Mr. Ron Taylor

TONIGHT WE HONOR A GREAT MAN!  This is an interesting day because this evening at Manuel's on the mighty North Avenue in Atlanta we all honor the great Atlanta journalist, Mr. Ron Taylor.  Last Thursday, Ron Taylor passed and all of us grieve.  We miss his incredible sense of style, his tremendous writing and editing.  The man was a wonderful  soul in the pantheon of Georgia journalism  He came out of the marvelous North Georgia town of Summerville and went to the University of Georgia.  He did awesome work there on The Red and Black, the college paper.  Later, he went on to Atlanta and became one of the top men of The Atlanta Journal.  This man, Mr. Ron Taylor, was my friend.  He was a great soul, a fellow with a great laugh, grand style and most importantly he had a terrific PASSION that he brought to all his endeavors.  He was a GREAT ONE!

Nice Writing

THE GOOD terse writing of Ernest Hemingway is a real joy.  He does not use too many adjectives.  His 'Torrents' is a fine tome.
