I got hold of a Playboy when I was a kid. I stashed it in between the box spring and the mattress of my bed. About a week later i came home and found the fold out taped to the refrigerator.

haha I was in bad trouble.

Out of curiosity, and because it was the in thing to do in NYC at the time, I went to the Playboy Club once when I was a graduate student. I think you had to go as a guest with a member if you weren't officially a member yourself, or maybe you could just pay a one time entrance fee. It was for me exotic at the time, but not really erotic. But at the same time there was definitely a red blooded thrill connected with going there. I don't think I ever bought a copy of the magazine. That's the one that people bought just to read the the articles. And the mansion? That's the one Heff invited his friends to for partying in the grotto with the bunnies, like for instance Bill Cosby, allegedly. Sounded like quite a sleezy operation, even for people who were in no sense prudish.

So, Gene, I will miss the old format terribly. Not!

When I was serving in the Navy everyone had a Playboy. My father-in-law had a stash in his basement and I always thought he was working down there, well, maybe he was.

When I was in high school my girl friend's father always left his copy out for others to read. In their house it was no big deal.

I have read Playboy for decades. Just last month I let my subscription lapse due to lack of time to read it.

When I was growing up my dad had a subscription. The magazines were out on the coffee table. I may have been a teen but I'm not sure.

That must be what inspired you to run around nude.

I do remember when it was a BIG deal, to get into Heff's club with the bunnies. My comparable exotic but not erotic experience was the Moulin Rouge in Paris about that same age. Better than the Rocketts which I saw in NYC.

My dad was not like the other dads, for sure. I liked hanging out with him in the garage rather than being in the kitchen. Must be why I like cars and hate cooking.
