He always has at least one

He always has at least one hilarious thing even when writing about this.

"terminal melanoma of the G-spot" made me snort laugh.

 

I do find this piece a tad on the boorishly hypocritical side.

Hitchens has my admiration for many of his deeds and words, some of which are less than mannerly even to me.

The idea that he would simply acquiesce to the bludgeoning pratter of some half-witted, wanna-be empath disgusts me and ruins my ideal of him.

Hitchens at his irascible best, facing death with his usual zest for living!
