Belly, Kobe and Tennessee Williams
Today The Great PD, 5H and BB are looking for a new apartment in Battery Park, the oldest part of Manhattan Island, where the Dutch set up their original colony, building a wall at the upper end to keep the natives away. This wall is today called Wall Street and we all know how that turned out.
Manhattan rentals have come down so much that it is possible, at least in theory, for three people to live there if the third person is only two and not yet earning twelve zillion dollars a year.
Kobe is earning every penny of his twelve zillion. Plotnik hopes you are seeing the fourth quarters of these games. It's coming down to sheer will.
Plot had to DVR last night's game because first he and Ducknik saw "Three on a Party" at the Theater Rhinoceros. It's a pity that the publicity for this show centers around its gayness, the gay writers and the gay-themed stories. The pub photo the Rhino is using is a boy kissing another boy, which lasts perhaps two seconds in the two hour evening of terrific literature. They ought to look at their empty Saturday night seats and realize this niche marketing is underestimating their potential audience. The Tennessee Williams story, one of three presented in the Word for Word production, is pure theatrical magic.
You can read the San Francisco Theater Blog review here. The theater is tiny and a ticket is $20. This is cheap theater. It's well worth it to see stories by Williams, Gertrude Stein and Armistead Maupin.

A friend just negotiated her UWS rent down by $600/mo! Of course, she was paying too much to began with, but...things may indeed be looking up here (or down, depending on your point of view).
Btw, that photo of Isabella pointing to Wall Street saying, Oh!, is priceless. It could become iconic of the era.
That really is a great Belly picture. The NBA playoffs are pretty interesting (even if I don't get to watch most of them). The Cavs are one list second shot by Lebron away from being down 0-3. As it is they may not make the finals. The Laker's win Saturday surprised me and may be enough to get them to the finals.
Kobe really is pretty good (and I really hate to say that).
