#1 Translation:

I need more drug and hooker money.

#2 Producer Lorre can pay up or shut up. The show is CBS's biggest hit and wouldn't be the same without Sheen, drunken addicted whoremonger that he is. My hero! Sheen could retire in comfort right now if he wanted to. If Lorre and CBS don't want to make a crapload of money from a hit show with a proven track record, it's not Charlie's fault. He's sobered up for the time being, as they required. Now the ball is in their court. If they don't want him to work, he might as well get back to getting high and screwing delectable porn stars.

#4 You make drunken, drug-addicted whoremonger sound like something bad.

#5 ever notice how funny and entertaining Charlie is when he's not reading funny and entertaining words written by someone else? Me neither. Dead pool 2011.

#6 Nah. Guys like him live forever.
The only thing that will really screw up his life is if he kills somebody else. Which is a pretty good possibility...

#7 His best bet would be to start an indy film studio, to crank out half a dozen movies, both with him in them, and him behind the camera. Low budget, but heavy emphasis on good writing and acting.

He could get good actors shunned by Hollywood, some because of age or other reasons, and some top notch up and comers.

Distribution through Lion's Gate, which is the big indy distributor, and even though each picture would probably cost less than $10m, his margins would be astronomical.

#8 You make drunken, drug-addicted whoremonger sound like something bad.

As the releases from the old FBI files indicate, qualifies him to run for multi-terms as Senator for Massachusetts. Charlie still has yet to rent an entire brothel. So there's room to grow.

#9 I think we are missing a great opportunity for an ambassador to Libya.

You want the crazy moomar, we give you Topper Harley.

#10 The show was pretty much a documentary of his life so he didn't have to act very much. Lorre should counter an offer on $500K a show and a public apology. Trust me he will run out of money and then the hookers/porn stars will run out too.

#11 I enjoy the show, but crack-pipe crazy charlie is giving me more bang for the buck right now.

That's entertainment!!

#12 This is more entertaining than the actual show. Winning!

#13 Yeah, he's just a "fun guy"...

Charlie Sheen's estranged wife Brooke Mueller obtained a restraining order to keep the actor away from her and their sons because she was afraid of violent comments the actor had made in recent days, including threats that he would stab her in the eye with a pen knife.

According to a sworn declaration filed in the case, Mueller said Sheen told her in a phone call Sunday night, "I will cut your head off, put it in a box and send it to your mom!"

In addition to threatening to stab her in the eye with a pen knife, Mueller claims Sheen spit on her feet and punched her on the arm during a recent trip to the Bahamas. She also claims he knocked her unconscious in October 2009 after shoving her to the ground and causing her to hit her head on a couch.

#15 He needs a raise, all righty: someone needs to raise his Haldol dosage to a theraputic level.

#16 Charlie Sheen is a 9/11 Truther: 9/11 was 'an absolute fairytale, a complete work of fiction'

Take the Sheen-Gaddafi quiz.

Good to know there was more than his general repugnance that kept me from watching his show.

#17 "#5 ever notice how funny and entertaining Charlie is when he's not reading funny and entertaining words written by someone else? Me neither. Dead pool 2011."

Actually, I have seen him many times in "real life" and I must say that he is funnier than sh-t every single time. the humor flows from this guy.

#18 he is funnier than sh-t

746, is this sarcasm or does your sense of humor have a reeeaaaaallllllly low threshold?

Last time I looked sh-t isn't very funny.

#19 I'm no shrink but from watching the guy in TV interviews I think his problems go beyond booze, drugs and whores. If he's bipolar manic-depressive he's gonna be in a world of hurt when he reaches the other end of the cycle. Lorre could find his star someday in a garage full of carbon monoxide.

#20 Alan Cramer, you ever seen the guy for real and listened to him? By the way, "funny as shit"is a modern Colloquial saying in the United States.

#21 He's starting to look and act more like Dicky (the bad years) in The Fighter.
