SOS. Snarky, Opinion, Storytelling. Ray Buck receives e-mails each week addressing him as "Buckshot," as though that’s his name, not just the name of his reader-feedback column which appears every Monday (since 2003) in the Star-Telegram. While there's great satisfaction in getting the last word with a snarky reply to a reader’s opinion, storytelling is really what's up Buck's alley. He joined the S-T in 1999.
