    Just came across this.

    In 1970, Playboy became the first gentleman's magazine to be printed in braille.

    Guess some guys really do buy it just for the articles.

    I don't think they are missing out where playboy is concerned anyway,since the airbrush and photoshop came along all the pictures look like cartoons,that pretty much goes for most magazines these days I think.I've seen CGI pictures that look more real than a lot of the stuff in magazines,especially women's fashion and makeup mags.

    They wore makup so thick i think they put it on with a trowel.
    When you saw them before or after work they were full of spots and skin blemishes because of the atmosphere inside the club.

    When i first left the military i did not know what i wanted to do so i ended up on the security staff, i have to say it was a real eye opener when you see how the rich and famous spend (throw away) their money.

    I stayed for 8 months and then left to become a truck driver (is that a step up or down ?)
