  1. Slopie, it might well have been Charlie Sheen. But Charlie isn’t bailing out half of Europe. This f@#ker actually could have diplomatic immunity because YES he was on IMF business. It is an archaic rule on the books, but it is legally possible although his “immunity” is more restricted than that of diplomats.

    None of you seem to think anything of this.

  2. well, then you should be interested in this brownstoner posted earlier.

    I went to see King Lear with Sir Derek Jacobi at BAM and I was really impressed. It was really dynamite, so beautifully acted. My friend and I agreed, poor King Lear had one hell of a shitty retirement. It’s there till June 5. The NY Times liked it:

    I also went to another event there this week, called Eat Drink and be Literary and heard a Cuban American writer Cristina Garcia read from her books including Dreaming in Cuban. Also excellent.

    BAM has impressive programming — even the movies at Cinematek…love it.
