Poor Little Rich Boy


It was announced today that Charlie Sheen will be utilizing the services of a sober companion. This person will shadow Charlie 24/7 and run interference between family; friends; and co-workers in an attempt to keep Charlie from any further destruction to himself; hookers; and hotel rooms. That's a tall order to fill.

These sober companions don't come cheap either, much like the female company Charlie likes to purchase, I mean keep. Although one could make the argument that his female companions are both cheap and expensive. His latest female companion insists she is not a hooker. She is a porn star. The difference being a porn star has sex for money while a hooker has sex for ..............money.

Regardless, the cost of the sober companion could run a minimum of $1800 dollars a day. That's chump change for Charlie who makes $2 million an episode for appearing on the sitcom Two and a Half Men. That's $250,000 dollars for an eight hour day. He is the highest paid actor on television, and he is literally blowing it all away. Well, technically, he’s blowing it up his nose.

The sober companion’s job will be to ensure that Charlie lives in a drug free environment-including hotel rooms, the studio, his vehicle and his residence and that Charlie remains abstinent from both drugs and alcohol; in other words, a modern day miracle worker.

God help both of them.
