A bevy is a couple dozen quail, right?

They used to call bimbos “birds” in the UK.

This could be hollywood's big chance to segue into Katie Couric's moslem sitcom.

They could script it so that while Charlie is in rehab his house goes up for foreclosure and is bought by a wealthy, devout moslem Pakistani physician. When Charlie returns after rehab, he hits on the doctor's burka-clad wife and laughter ensues.

If Hollywood actors were subjected to random drug testing as per conditions of being given a role, the place would become a ghost town.

“Sheen, 45
45, going on 65.

Dude ain’t lookin’ good. “

Time for Charlie to slow down. Maybe 1 Porn Star instead of 5 and let go of the blow and smoke some weed.

Two and a Half Men is an idiotic, trite, badly-acted vehicle for overgrown delinquent a-hole Sheen.
Just shows how easily amused, and how low people’s standards are in general.
That they should pay this degenerate a million per episode is appalling.
