You know what's really hard to write? Something that tries to honour a friend, but that you know he would have hated you to do. John "The Ghost" Miller has joined the Choir Invisible, and he didn't acquire that sobriquet for nothing. As editor of the Ulysses motorcycle club journal, Riding On, for decades, his most obvious characteristic was always that, like Macavity, he was not there - not when anyone was looking for him with praise or approval, anyway. John kept his own standards, and it was a good thing indeed for the Club that they were high; extraordinarily so.
