It depends on the state in which you live. I was in a Napa club that sent bottles every month to Texas. When I moved to Utah, it was verboten.

Which they? Who?No, they speak one liquor/wine store per county, limits on alcohol content for mixed drinks, no drinks without buying food, and such stuff as that. And no wine in the mail. And when you drive across the border to Las Vegas and bring in alcoholic beverages you were acting illegally and subject to having your vehicle confiscated.
That's correct, oh Dutch one.
Utah sounds very strict. Polygamy is no longer legal there, is it?
If you can't have a drink now and again, I guess you have to do something to unwind...
How many venereal diseases can you squeeze into a single photograph?

How many are there?

She may not even have posed for it, necessarily. Could just be a stock photo.

I think "mousy brown" is sometimes used as a byword for forgettable hair color and, by extension forgettable personality.
Yes, there's that. Also, Hefner is apparently 84 years old (according to Wikipedia). The woman around whom he is draping his left arm looks like she's about 19. It's pretty creepy.
After his first divorce, in 1959, Hefner remade himself as a bon vivant and man about town, a lifestyle he promoted in his magazine and two TV shows he hosted, Playboy's Penthouse (1959–1960) and Playboy After Dark (1969–1970). He admitted to being "'involved' with maybe eleven out of twelve months' worth of Playmates" during some of these years. Donna Michelle, Marilyn Cole, Lillian Müller, Shannon Tweed, Brande Roderick, Barbi Benton, Karen Christy, Sondra Theodore, and Carrie Leigh—who filed a $35 million palimony suit against him—were a few of his many lovers. In 1971, he acknowledged that he experimented in bisexuality and moved from Chicago to Los Angeles.

I'm not sure that was ever Hef's philosophy.
I was thinking of that, too, j. You beat me to it.
Full Sail's Session Black Lager. I'm not normally a lager fan, but this is very tasty, and comes in a cute little bottle.

That is a dark beer Sarah! It looks like it could be tasty.
It was quite good. Too much alcohol to be a true session beer, though, so I'm wondering why they called it that.
Now I'm in the mood for a beer. They frown on that at work, and HS track meets, so it may have to wait awhile.
A while like hours? Or a while like days?

I'll have a couple in your honor, then.

I would like one of those right now.
Me too.I also just realized that I still have a wine-bottle sized Dogfish Head Theobroma waiting to be tasted, so that's coming with me this weekend. Or dinner tonight. Hmm...
Sarah, what's a Theobroma in beer? I know theobromine is the chemical in chocolate that kills dogs, but I have no idea what it means on a beer bottle label.
Absolutely killing me Sarah.But keep em coming.
Somebody drink on my behalf tonight.
Jammies, Dogfish Head is known for making some whacked out beers. This one:"As per the analysis, Dogfish Heads Theobroma (translated into 'food of the gods') is brewed with Aztec cocoa powder and cocoa nibs (from our friends at Askinosie Chocolate), honey, chilies, and annatto (fragrant tree seeds). It's light in color - not what you expect with your typical chocolate beer. Not that you'd be surprised that we'd do something unexpected with this beer!"
It came out in late fall, but I'm assuming it hasn't skunked yet. I forgot I had it.
They had a show on Discovery or History channel about how they thought up and made their different beers. It was pretty interesting.
Yeah, I saw a couple of episodes of that show. He's an entertaining guy, and I like their sense of history and their experimentation, even though some of it is kinda awful.
Yeah the chewing corn and spitting it into a container episode was not inspiring.
