Sag Harbor residents shocked Justin Timberlake’s friends let him drive drunk

Sag Harbor residents shocked Justin Timberlake’s friends let him drive drunk

Listen to our better angels

Sag Harbor is sinking. Stunned that friends let Timberlake get in a car. To drive. Alone. Area.

Maybe feeling a little bit their fault. Not as if they hadn’t seen him dazedly leave the busy bar at the town’s American Hotel.

Maybe towards Jimmy Fallon, my friend from East Hampton. Obviously too zoned out to drive.

Fame can be difficult. The years don’t stop. Not all the gyms, retouchers, press agents, assistants, drivers and PR types savvy enough to take you to Italy where there is no 4th of July and you can still get a newspaper to make you tan.

Kids today don’t know the name Clark Gable. Tom Cruise will then jump from a moving train with a cane.

Take the latest with the latest marriage crash of multi-divorced, multi-married Ms. Ben Affleck.

Every new guy is a temp. There is despair. His personal project was nothing. Movies, nothing. Don’t turn anything. Only the PR, the weddings and her panic – plus the PR she generates herself – are anything.

Maybe there are demons inside Timberlake. Hunter has them, DA Bragg has them, temp Mrs. Affleck is gutted. We must control them all.

Uplifting news

Meanwhile, PDO Thread Lift is a new, minimally invasive in-office procedure between fillers and facelifts.

It’s the “Summer Lift” without losing the fun of summer.

In 20 minutes, PDO threads lift and tighten the skin, stimulating collagen without surgical interruption.

Manhattan and Woodbury plastic surgeon Dr. Jon Turk, after doing this 1,000 times, says the results can last a year.

Which are intensified quickly

Broadway. The fewest viewers EVER tuned in to see what the Tonys were crushing.

Friends wanted two tickets to “Merrily We Roll Along” with Daniel Radcliffe. Hudson Theater.

No new original musical. A retread. Opened in 1981. Ticket lines no longer extended to Utah.

The crowds at the Saks Off on East 57th, just to buy last season’s discounted jeans, were larger.

And when people, except the Bidens, are not doing well financially – the price of tickets to this show? Ready? $750!

The first Tony Awards were held in 1947. Ticket – $7. The shows were “Finian’s Rainbow”, “High Button Shoes”, “Brigadoon”.

A four-door Buick cost $750, toilet paper was a cent, and a t-shirt was $2.99.

We are doing great – or what?!

What a beautiful city

4th July. After the great shining sea water of Hiawatha, after George Washington, came Nathan Hale. The first American spy.

Yale graduate, Yale professor, spied on the United States while he graduated from Yale (no change, Yale is still politically demoralized) and got himself hanged as a traitor on 66th and Third.

1762. Fraunces Tavern, G. Washington’s first restaurant. He left. The tavern is still there. In 1884, the 72nd and CPR brought the Dakota, the most opulent building in what became the greatest city in the world.

1881. Statue of Liberty. Empire State Building. Uptown, Downtown, Crosstown, St. Pat’s, Bronx Zoo, Diamond Center, Central Park, Radio City, Mayor Eric.

A friend from Jakarta asked him what he should see here. I told him, “You only have three days. Just try to cross town.

Only in New York, kids, only in New York.
