In yet another incident of life imitating art for "The Wire", (whereas the show is actually the reverse), actor Anwan Glover — known as Slim Charles on the show — was reportedly stabbed at Cafe Asia in D.C. early Sunday morning.

Geez. On a Sunday morning, though?? Like Slim said to the Barksdale crew, "Ain't enough y'all done violated the Sunday morning truce." Because Sunday morning should be easy. That's Lionel Richian law, as far as I'm concerned.
