“I must slow down now, which is why I'm taking what I like to call "a leave of presence."”
What in the world is a leave of presence? It means I am not going away. My intent is to continue to write selected reviews but to leave the rest to a talented team of writers handpicked and greatly admired by me. What's more, I'll be able at last to do what I've always fantasized about doing: reviewing only the movies I want to review. … So on this day of reflection I say again, thank you for going on this journey with me. I'll see you at the movies. <br class="br"> "A Leave of Presence" (2 April 2013) http://www.rogerebert.com/rogers-journal/a-leave-of-presence

Song lyrics, Don McLean (1972)

We all slow down.
