You may have heard about a guy named Charlie Sheen recently. He's this American actor who went off his rocker with drugs and hookers, said a bunch of crazy stuff, then got fired from the hit TV series Two and a Half Men.

Now he's on Twitter and garnering an average of 130,000 new followers per day.

People can't seem to get enough of Charlie Sheen these days, so he's doing what "winners" do and taking his show on the road, with a stop at Rogers Arena on May 2. Here's what it says about the show on Ticketmaster:

"My Violent Torpedo of Truth/Defeat is Not An Option Show is coming for you. I'm going on the road. LIVE. Will there be surprises? Will there be guests? Will there be mayhem? Will you ask questions? Will you laugh? Will you scream? Will you know the truth? WILL THERE BE MORE?!?! This IS where you will hear the REAL story from the warlock. Bring it. I dare you to keep up with me."

Tickets for the Charlie Sheen show—which comes with the warning FOR MATURE AUDIENCES—are priced from $39.50 to $112 (plus service charges and fees) and go on sale to the general public on Saturday (March 19) at 10 a.m. at www.livenation.com/. You can find more deets here.

I'm pretty sure Charlie Sheen is in the manic phase of undiagnosed bipolar disorder. I just wish there was some way I could tell him and he could get the brain chemical balancing help he needs and feel better and get his life back.

Great. People are going to pay to exploit and be "entertained" by an illness which is resulting in PAIN, and often ends in unnecessary death. Hey, folks, why not buy Sheen some bullets for a gun, and tell him to put it to his head. Or punch his children in the face while you're at it, too? (Addiction: hurts children, and you can bet Sheen's kids hurt/shall hurt as a result of this exploitation.)

Delusional is booking Rogers Arena for this trainwreck. I seriously hope he gets stopped at the border and refused entry, althou with our track record...( look at the Quaids) probably not. He feeds off all this attention....and certainly isn't going to get any real help, or any better from it.
