Charles Barkley has been getting back in shape by boxing with "Joltin' " Joey DeMalavez at his Joltin' Jabs (4313 Main) boxing studio in Manayunk. Sir Charles trained a bit last summer with DeMalavez, a former Daily News Sexy Single, but has now returned hardcore, boxing nearly every day...Comedian Wanda Sykes sipped Ketel One and club while bowling late Monday night at Lucky Strike (1336 Chestnut) with friends. The funnywoman owns a home in Delaware County...Curt Schilling, the former Phillies ace who recently experessed interest in the Massachusetts Senate seat vacated by Edward Kennedy's death, was in town over the weekend. Schilling and pals enjoyed two bottles of wine, tenderloin tips and mushrooms, pork chops and trout at City Tavern (138 S. 2nd) Saturday night. Schilling paid the bill, tipping generously..."Monk" star Tony Shalhoub was on US Airways' Flight 36 from LAX to PHL overnight Friday/Saturday. He flew coach..."Real Housewives of New Jersey" Caroline and Dina Manzo danced it up at Bob Pantano's Beach Bar party at the Atlantic City Hilton Saturday night. The sisters and a few of their co-stars from the Bravo series had appeared earlier at their own event at the hotel, taking questions from the audience and talking about the show. Caroline tore up the floor with Ten Pennies florist Ann Catania and West Deptford Mayor Anna Docimo when Pantano played Neil Diamond's "Sweet Caroline." For more from today's column, click here.

    How can a grown man make his living gossiping like a mentally challenged little girl? You should be ashamed of yourself.

    Why are you guys being such jerks? People love gossip. I'd venture a guess that this stuff brings more web hits than most of the news articles! Dan is probably one of the more secure writers at the paper! And if you don't like gossip...why are you reading it? Freaks.

    I hope Barkley can throw a punch better than he can swing a golf club.
