Ian Spiegelman, former Page Sixer, milks his firing for hella column inches in this weekend's NYT. A similarity struck us with the recent NY mag article on Spiegelman, and we wanted to write in to say that we're concerned:

· NY Mag: "Spiegelman was four Scotches into the evening at his apartment in Forest Hills. There would be at least two more to come."
· NYT column: "He takes another sip of another Scotch on the rocks, one of five he will have in about two hours of a midafternoon."

Dude, seriously: livers are expensive, and rehab is really boring. (Trust me.) Maybe it's time to substitute beverages for a little while?
