In Brief
Dude
Steve Hager, the editor of High Times, is reportedly being pushed out of his position. He's been asked to "vacate his office for the next two months as the magazine's parent company Trans High Corp. decides how to proceed." Two months to make the decision. Christ, you people are high.

Prince Charles Will Pass His Duchy To The Left Hand Side
In the first edition of the Dining section since 4/20, stoners will be happy to find that the section is devoted to greenage. Is that weed or cress on the cover? Only one man knows, and that man is the future King of England. Also known as your highness. Kim Severson brings us the facts on the King of the Hippies, which is a lot like being the King of the Gypsies except realer. First of all, dude's into "hedge laying." Second of all, he lives in a place called Highgrove. Third of all, he makes biscuits and other munchies under the label Duchy Originals. But perhaps most convincingly: For a royal, every day's Friday, and he ain't got no job and he ain't got shit to do. He's gotta get high. More »

Media Softball: Tom Hanks Waves Foam Finger for 'Vanity Fair' Victory
While the rest of the country spent most of last week dressing their Roman-Candle wounds, the Vanity Fair softball team was making history on the diamond, schooling the world-renowned High Times Bonghitters, 8-5. The stoners took an early lead in the game, but it didn't take long for the Veefers to exact their vengeance for May's 13-4 loss to the Bonghitters. More » -

Media Softball: Now With Long-Lead Production Sked
One wouldn't accuse the Vanity Fair softball team of being prompt with its postgame reports — they work at a monthly, after all, and you know the flexible relationship those kinds of people have with deadlines — but you've got to give them some credit: They're now posting reports on the public VF site, and they've even got pictures. In the Veefers' Rashomonic look at last week's tilt against High Times, the Bonghitters still win but the prose is more flowery. More »

Media Softball: Bonghitters Bogart the Veefers
The High Times softball team continues to steamroll its way through the media competition, pulling out a 13-4 win over the Vanity Fair squad last night. Editor-at-large Steve Bloom has a wrapup of the game, but there's no mention of VF's sartorial choices. We presume Graydon's kids wore tartan-plaid uniforms, and we further presume they looked spectacular. More » -

Media Softball: 'High Times' Smokes 'The New Yorker'
As if isn't bad enough that The New Yorker took home only two National Magazine Awards last night, the far worse news is that the mag's softball team suffered its eighth straight loss to the fabled High Times Bonghitters. One bright spot: Apparently they've got spiffy new personalized uniforms. More » -

Media Softball: 'High Times' Beats 'The Onion'; 'BizWeek' Beats 'Paris Review'
We've fallen behind in reporting on the fledging 2006 media-softball season, but we're determined to make it up to you. First, and most interestingly, High Times has graciously begun providing newsreel-style "Potcasts" of their games. We're duly impressed with the craftsmanship, but, even more than that, we're impressed with the thing's actual existence. We could never motivate to get something like that finished, even if we were sober. More » -

Remainders: Kate Moss, the E! True Hollywood Story
• Britain's Sky television plans on showing a Kate Moss documentary that includes actual footage of the supermodel blowing her couture rails. We're not sure this is worth your time; if you simply print out all the images from the Mirror and assemble them, in order, you can have a handy animated flipbook. Much cooler, we think.

Softball: Not All History Is Written By the Winners
So, yes, the legendary High Times Bonghitters beat The New Yorker on the softball field Tuesday night, and we carried a terse report yesterday, sent by a Bonghitter. But, as you well know, it's just not the same without New Yorker coach Dellinger's nicknamerrific wrapup — so it's a good thing that one of our favorite Conde pixies forwarded Coach's report to us this morning. It's been too long since we've heard from Dellinger — a few weeks, it seems like — and now we know why: After last week's game the Harper's publicist poisoned him, and he was too ill to report.

Softball: 'High Times' vs. 'Vanity Fair'
We're told the High Times bonghitters are taking on VF's squad tonight. First pitch is at 7 p.m. in Central Park's North Meadow, and we suspect this will be about the biggest clash-of-worldviews game around. We expect worn 501s, concert t-shirts, and old Chucks on one side, with summer whites, pastel polos, and saddle shoes — or maybe a nice, supple, driving moc — on the other. More » -
