Wow.
Should not be shocked, but it still seems weird to read.
We may remember 2017 as the year Hugh Hefner and the NFL both died.
Man did Hef had the women though. Beautiful buxom blondes at his beck and call. I’d be a hypocrite to denounce his lifestyle, as I did the very same skirt-chasing in the 90s in college, although not to the obvious extent that Hef did.

Let the jokes begin...
Well this’ll give’em something to try to change the headlines about.

Everything he did was disgusting. Reportedly even the Playboy mansion was physically filthy and disgusting, reflective of Hefner’s Biblical ‘unclean spirit”.
Funny. I saw more goodwill towards Molly Ivins when she died than on this thread. People here can apparently forgive political fanaticism by our enemies, but not anything to do with sex.
