The good news is that he's going to get help

. . . from the Governor of his state, Tim Pawlenty:

Hugh Hewitt: Well, it's a pretty long list. I've got three things I need, I hope you'll consider. First of all, Lileks, the Minneapolis Star-Tribune columnist and blogger, has now twice in a year backed into his garage when it was closed. And this is obviously is not a citable offense, because it's his garage. He just backed into it. Is there any way we can get the state police to swing over there and maybe test his driving or something?

Governor Tim Pawlenty: Well, you know, kind of recurring incidents, traffic incidents and others, I'm told can be a sign of other problems or issues than life, Hugh. So it may not be so much a law enforcement matter as it could be a social intervention. But it certainly seems to be a cry for help. And I think you, and his friends, and others might rally to that cause.

Background kinda explained here. Kinda.
