They can’t compete with Internet free, even the articles.

I think the last time I read a copy of Playboy, was around the summer of 1986...the edition which had something to do with Stallon’s Swedish wife (Brigitte Nielson).

I thought they already tried that.

How many diseases are spread on the paper of Playboy magazine ... um, I’m not going to go there.

Oh, goody. They want to “engage in a cultural discussion each and every day” as if things are not already messed-up enough.

Maybe they get some sort of tax write-off by claiming the coronavirus has something to do with their fading fortunes.

I think a better alternative than stopping altogether would be to print an extra thick annual with both new and classic content.

Advertising would focus on upscale and luxury items like they used to do, avoiding high tech but plebeian stuff. Basically selling a James Bond fantasy for adventurous millionaires, to be enjoyed by everyone. Jet setting tourism in first class.

Really a smart decision. I’m a member of three nonprofit social organizations and the NRA. All have gone digital with their publications. It saves vast amounts of money just on the purely physical aspects of producing, preparing, and mailing large publications. Suddenly there’s no more printing and no more postage.

Great sticky pages replaced by sticky keyboard.

Pages are cheaper to replace.

Keyboards come from China.

Not that I would know about any of this...

Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

The false positive rate was 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

If a quarantine saves just one child's or one old fart’s life, it's worth it.

Also due to syphilis, gonorrhea, HIV, genital warts, etc.

I guess they will now proceed to a more classy version of the addictive internet porn.

Coronavirus DANG!
