Spitzer VS New York Wives

Last week I commented on the ridiculous series, Wives of New York or whatever, on Bravo. One of the points I went on about was the fact that these ladies did not compare to the exploits of other new yorkers. They just don’t have the energy, the passion, the drive, or the decadence of New York city.

This week we saw such a car wreck. This week we saw Governor Spitzer crash and burn. Governor Spitzer, the sheriff of Wall Street hiring call girls-allegedly spending $80,000 on such encounters. This is a New York City story. One that perhaps the city would prefer not to be associated with, but certainly a more honest picture of wealth, arrogance, and decadence in New York than any stupid TV show.

Once again the reality just puts the imagination of writers and reality TV to shame. Like Rock n Roll, in New York, you never know what the fuck will happen.
