DSK’s new digs

Yesterday Dominique Strauss-Kahn moved to a new residence in Manhattan where he will continue under house arrest. The New York Times reports:

His new home is a free-standing three-floor town house in TriBeCa that was recently renovated by Leopoldo Rosati, and had been on the market for nearly $14 million. The town house features a rooftop deck, a fitness center, a custom theater, a steam spa bath, two Italian limestone baths, two Duravit jet tubs, a waterfall shower and a dual rainfall steam shower.

As usual, the Times fails to answer the question that immediately springs to the reader’s mind: Does his new residence have maid service?

DSK sure seems to have a lot of bathtubs, showers, and other water toys in his new digs. Maybe he has a filthy, dirty feeling deep inside and subconsciously wants to come clean. He’s like Lady MacBeth with her damned spot of blood, but DSK feels the sinful slime all over his body, hence the need for two “Duravit jet tubs” … whatever they are!
