The Simple Life 2

Best Weekend Ever 6.10.04

Featuring Porsche, Gabriel García Márquez, and The Simple Life 2

Puerto Rican Day Parade… this weekend? It must be Summer. Flaunt it!


INDULGE IN
0-60 in seconds? Good. Speed racing school for Porsche owners? Even better. And better hurry up because Porsche’s real racetrack lesson is selling out faster than you can say Boxter. Prepare to qualify, here.

CONSIDER
Skip the 2nd Annual Air Guitar Championships this weekend, for the Suicide Girls at Knitting Factory, next weekend. If you don’t know them yet, think of them as Goth Girls Gone Wild. Or better yet, be seduced by their web site, suicidegirls.com. (Caution: Do not open at work.)

Art aficionados can get their Andy Warhol-fix tonight at the Feldman Gallery.

EASY READER
Summer is the perfect season for anything by Gabriel García Márquez. We adore his latest, Living to Tell the Tale, because Márquez is, as always, so brilliant at breathing life in to his rich characters. And this time, it’s his real-life family! Read on at Amazon.com.

MUST SEE TV
Because we can never get enough Paris. And FOX knows it, The Simple Life 2 premieres on Wednesday.Fire up the DVR.

LAUNDRY LIST
Not sure to do with those not-so-white-anymore 600 thread-count sheets. Take ‘em to Madame Paulette. The best drycleaner in the world is also the best place to send your super fine sheets. At least that’s what we read in this months’s Dwell Magazine [June 2004, p. 61]. We’re sold. Visit madamepaulette.com.
