Charlie, Charlie, Charlie. Just yesterday we wrote about Charlie Sheen's rants and it doesn't look like he'll quiet down any time soon. After reacting to the decision to suspend Two and a Half Men for the remainder of the season, he opened up about an upcoming deal with HBO. Although Charlie's currently the highest paid actor in TV raking in $2 million an episode, the stakes just got higher — he'll earn an astounding $5 million per episode!

In response to the decision Charlie fired back: "What does this say about Haim Levine Chuck Lorrie after he tried to use his words to judge and attempt to degrade me. I gracefully ignored this folly for 177 shows ... I fire back once and this contaminated little maggot can't handle my power and can't handle the truth. I wish him nothing but pain in his silly travels especially if they wind up in my octagon. Clearly I have defeated this earthworm with my words -- imagine what I would have done with my fire breathing fists. I urge all my beautiful and loyal fans who embraced this show for almost a decade to walk with me side-by-side as we march up the steps of justice to right this unconscionable wrong."

A rather talkative Charlie also commented on an upcoming drug test this Monday. He accepted a challenge to prove that he's sober and what better way to do it than get tested! He added, "I'm so confident where I am at and that these faceless names can't touch me...I know that I will pass the test and prove my detractors wrong."
