G-man is in town for some psychiatric convention at the Javits Center. Last night some dude who placed in the Ben Affleck lookalike contest took him and a group of his closest friends (y.t. included) out for drinks at Stone Rose in the new Time Warner Building. All this in the hopes that the next time G-man and his colleagues whip out their prescription pads, they’ll remember to use his product. I forget whether he worked for Merck or Pfizer or Bristol-Meyers-Squibb, but it was one of those guys. Anyway, I drank top shelf gin and ate shrimp cocktail until I started seeing stars. It was a good night. I didn’t bring my camera, but here are some photos of the bar that overlooks Columbus Circle and Central Park and, under normal circumstances, would never let a guy like me in.
