I have since looked him up. He has led a rather charmed life.

Lately the most interesting things I've read in the New Yorker were online. When I tried to find them in the magazine, they weren't there. Here's an example, an actually amusing Shouts and Murmurs.

I have the impression that print version is a week behind the online version. At least, occasionally a NY piece appears to show up in my news feed, and a week later it shows up in my print copy.

Seems likely. At my newspaper, the digital version comes out the day before the print.

I put off reading Thomas Mallon's diary from the December 12th issue but finally read it and I'm glad I did. He's the same age as I and while I was navigating the typical ordeals of young adulthood, he was in the midst of the AIDS crisis in New York City. If only I had read his diaries as a young woman I would hope I could have offered friendship and help to my gay acquaintances sooner rather than later.
After finishing it I ran to my computer to find out if he succumbed to AIDS like so many of the people he came into contact with. There were several presumably straight Thomas Mallons whose obits were posted but he is well and alive and living with his long-time partner in the DC area. And still publishing. :D
