So why is socialgay and clothing publicist Kristian Laliberte moving apartments, as he mentioned in yesterday's bulletin? Turns out, he wuz robbed! That's what he gets for living at 96th and 2nd. "Along with a Patek Philippe watch that had belonged to his grandfather, Mr. Laliberte's laptop also disappeared. 'I'm writing a book, and my book was on it!'" he told the Observer. If only Kristian had backed up his work! Who knows what kind of literary masterpiece has been lost to posterity? Anyway now his parents will buy him a new apartment.
