Just to get the ball rolling

I've plundered the mind the gap archive just to get the ball rolling on this one, I'm affraid this is pretty much a copy and paste of one of winter's posts, but her posts are always fabulous so enjoy for the second time round...


Hugh Hefner ("Hef")

Founder of Playboy magazine.






Here are some choice quotes:"Picasso had his blue period and his pink period. I am in my blonde period right now".

Hugh, you are NOT Picasso. Picasso was an artist and a genius. You are neither; you are a clever man, a sly charmer with excellent business sense who happened to be in the right place at the right time and hit on the right product.

"Playboy isn't like the downscale, male bonding, beer swilling phenomena that is being promoted now by (some men's magazines). My whole notion was the romantic connection between male and female".

Awwwww. See what I mean about sly! He's clever to distance Playboy from the trashy world of men's magazines. Playboy readers are so much more sophisticated!

"They're [his girfriends Sandy and Mandy]closer together than ever before".

Blurgh! Perhaps I'll take back that comment about "witty".Hugh, the reason feminists don't like you is that you are not a very nice man. We don't need you to liberate us thank you very much, we can do it ourselves and, personally, I feel freer, and somewhat less silly, without bunny ears and a bobtail.
