My husband stores each issue in plastic but has never gone back to 'reference' anything. He can't explain his need to keep them. Can you?

ANSWER: "Your husband is planning ahead. Someday civilization will collapse. Cities will burn. Roaming packs of angry deliquents will pound on your boarded-up doors. As they break through, your husband will hold up a pristine copy of Playboy and say "Look here, boys." Friendships will form amid the chaos, leading to a new and better society. By the way, why do you keep all those shoes?"

 

I think this one was in one of the last issues. I remember reading it.

 

I will save that for reference next time a girl asks about the growing piles of playboy and maxim.
