While there’s a great deal we complain about when it comes to the Register’s editorial/opinion pages, make no mistake that it comes from a position of respect. Sure, we wish the Reguister had one center/left columnist and sure, we wishe there was more balance in the content. And we’re likely not to get our way.
That said, columnist Alan Bock announced his retirement in a column yesterday. Alan is 67 and is facnig some health issues that he shared with honesty and candor. And while we probably don’t agree with Alan on most matters political, he’s a nice guy and deserves our good wishes, support and prayers has he deals with his health issues.
We do hope Alan overcomes any obstacles in his path and has a long and happy retirement and comes here often to tell us what he thinks.
Godspeed Alan Bock.
I’m a hell of a lot further right than you or the rest of the LibOC clan will ever be and I almost never agree with Bock. Still, intelligent discussion has always prevailed in his eloquent writing. God Bless, Alan, and may your life be full and happy in retirement.
