God, how I remember being a kid and sneaking my stepdad's Playboys. I think the best blessing I ever heard was, "when you die, may Hugh Hefner's life pass before your eyes". If only! RIP Mr. Hefner, you were a pioneer for certain.

I remember being 14 or 15, coming home from school and finding all my hidden Playboys and Penthouse magazines stacked on my dresser with a note from my Mom saying I should hide them better. At least she didn't throw them out....like she did my comics.  ::)

[Gusington]

I saved my comics, lost everything else (GI Joe, Lego, etc) 😒

I just feel sorry for all those poor working girls at the Mansion that're now facing their grief and an uncertain future. I wanna go there and give them a big HUUUUUGGG.  :-*
