"Buddy"

[Joe Hironaka <j.hironaka@unesco.org>]

Hi:

I enjoyed reading Michael Holley's latest Globe article about
Swampscott's Harry Bane, a 12-year old little leaguer battling a rare
form of cancer. The url is:

http://www.boston.com/dailyglobe/globehtml/218/At_12__he_won_t_stop_for_cancer.htm

These days I read all of the guy's articles, regardless of subject. I'm
glad he's covering next season's (53-win) Boston Celtics! I'd take him
over Mike Barnicle any day, and not just because he's a minority.

As far as I'm concerned, our Holley is as good as "Buddy".




p.s. Sorry to non-New Englanders, Mike Barnicle is the second Boston
Globe writer to get fired (in this case for plagiarism) in the past few
months.
