Comments: If the Playboy Mansion were in Asia

A- A A+

March 7, p. 4

Eek! Lock up your husbands! Developers hope to build an Asian version of the Playboy Mansion in Macau, according to a newspaper last week. The report promoted a reader to ask: “If it’s true that we go to a better place when we die, where will Hugh Hefner end up?”
Wow, tough question. Playboy boss Hefner shares a house in Los Angeles with a production line of bikini models, many of which have pneumatically inflated breasts and matching air-filled heads. So where would qualify as a “better place” for him? Hmm.  (By Nury Vittachi,  Bangkok)

Your comments:
As to polygamists and a different viewpoint, it was explained to me that one wife is boring after a while; two are always fighting; with three, two are always ganging up on the third; so four or more seems to be the answer.
I rather like my father’s philosophy: “When your wife gets to be forty, you change her for two twenties”.
By the way and for what it’s worth, in addition to inflated breasts,
I was once friendly with a Playboy bunny, who told me that their bottoms were often padded too. “What you see is what you get” is not necessarily true.

I rather like the sentiments expressed by Exbrit and that of his father. However, I disagree with his observation about seeing and getting. I think is often the other way around: What you get is not always what you see, that’s why changing one of forty for two of twenty can be disappointing.
