Last week I had the pleasure of going to the theater with one half of my Loose Lips co-writers, the gemultlict Lisa Birnbach. What fun! We had dinner on Bond Street in a brick-walled basement level restaurant called The Smile, which had the atmosphere and trappings of the kind of archetypal Greenwich Village that Edna St. Vincent Millay might have known, except for the absence of candles in chianti bottles. After that we went around the corner to the Lynn Redgrave Theater to see a play called `Tail! Spin!’ The play, which featured terrific acting, was about the sexual shenanigans of former senator Larry Craig, ex-governor Mark Sanford, and ex-congressmen Mark Foley and Anthony Weiner. The text was cleverly assembled by Mario Correa out of bits of speeches, comments, texts,emails, statements and interview answers actually uttered by the actual parties. No wonder it caught the eye of former Lippers. Anyway, it was a lot of fun; we’ll have to see if something evolves out of it,
