Vanity Fair columnist/career contrarian Christopher Hitchens once told an acquaintance of mine that the "four most overrated things" were "champagne, lobster, anal sex, and picnics." NY Post gossip columnist Cindy Adams seems to share the Hitch's irrational hatred of picnics (no comments on lobster, champagne or anal sex) and uses the entirety of today's column to rail against the evils of picnics. No gossip. No celebrities. Just picnics. If she writes another column like this, I'd suggest her employer threaten her with a picnic.
