The briefest of comments on the pop cultural landscape

Did you ever read "No Country for Old Men" by Cormac McCarthy? Having seen the movie doesn't count, by the way. At its most fundamental level, "No Country for Old Men" was a reflection on how one responds to profound evil. At the end of the book the old sheriff chooses to simply step away from it.

That said, as God is my witness, I will never watch another episode of "American Idol" again.
