is this the end of Rico?"
This was posted over at the "Whiskey Bar".
I hope he's not taking down his dirty shingle.
He has done yeoman's work, and no one but the runner can decide when to quit the race, but I would miss Billmon more than a little.

I'll certainly miss him if he goes, (and I'd tell him myself, if he allowed comments.)
yes, he would be greatly missed
End of the year, perhaps?
He's 'quit' blogging and come back before. Let's hope he makes it back again.
Burnout, I am assuming.
He just got back from a month long haitus.
Billmon will be sorely missed.
I'd put him right up there with Driftglass and Digby, easy.
Mebbe he'' be back, who knows.

Billmon did really beat it down then
righteously wrapped it up in startling prose. The mans travel-writing was poetry.
May the Muse.
Old Sow loved his travel writing in particular too, though all his writing was exceptional. She hopes he will return to the waves, whether in an identifiable form or anew.

I think he's bi-polar and he's just recently crashed full-on into the "depressed" phase.
Billmon has quit before More than once, in fact. I've followed him for years, and it gets a bit frustrating, but since he has a regular job, I think it's asking too much to expect him to blog regularly. He may finally drop the whole thing, but I believe that loveandlight makes a good point - this may be an episode of depression (certainly his later posts seem rather despairing). He really should guest on someone else's blog if he wants to close his site but still post, as some have done. It took me years to beat depression and some people never do, so I guess I'll just await developments.
At least we'll always have Wolcott
fledermaus -
I occasionally break into cold sweats thinking how VF may one day see how popular Wolcott is and decide to "monetize" his blog by putting it behind a paid subscription wall. Notice how little Krugman is discussed anymore?
