I generally ignore them. Brooks especially, beams his columns in from the surface of Mars, i totally gave up.

Brooks wouldn't make it on Mars. Ask Edgar Rice Burroughs and Michael Whelan.

I kind of want a reality show: "David Brooks Doing Things," a cross between his tedious columns and the lately esteemed JACKASS. David Brooks cigarette boat racing, David Brooks wrestling alligators, David Brooks participating in gunfights in small, dismal towns on the Mexico-U.S. border.

David Brooks talking to somebody in a fly-over state greasy spoon who doesn't know or care who David Brooks is.

I want a reality show where all of the NYT op-ed columnists who called for everyone to take to the streets (Blow, Goldberg, and Manjoo for starters) actually have to organize protests and show up for them.

Whatever happened to the Jackass guys anyway?
