Wise and otherwise I just got an idea to do a review of advice columns for my blog. Aside from Miss Manners, Dear Abby/Ann Landers, Salon's Cary Tennis, and AskMe, whom/what should I review?

Ask Amy, Ann Landers' successor.

God, she sucks.

There's also a lot of wedding advice at IndieEtiquette (aka Ask Elise).

I've always wanted to do a sort of Gene-and-Robert advice column. Find some articulate person whose opinions aren't much like mine, take a few questions, and then we argue.
