> FWIW, Christie Hefner graduated from my high school when I graduated (and Hugh showed up at our graduation), though she was known as Christie Gunn back then and I didn't know her very well. She changed her last name to her biological father's and then got the big money.
Amazing. I didn't know that. And was she a Gunn ? I have never met her personally, I just pasted up a lot of Playboy pictures in the hallway and toilet of my flat, as a sort of wallpaper, as an 18 year old. A friend of mine had this wallpaper in her loo, that consisted of pages out of an old book glossed over, and then, being a bit drawn to the surreal, because of the way my life had gone, I thought I would do something like that, but with Playboy and Penthouse pictures. But most people didn't appreciate it, either I was being too avant garde or too backward in my thinking or both at the same time, and thus missing out, and I took it off again. I didn't know much about women (still don't in many ways) but I was grateful to Playboy for giving me something to look at in a sensitive state. The first article I ever read about Fidel Castro was a story by Tad Szulc, in Playboy or Penthouse. But I didn't know much at that time about how softporn magazines really function, I was a bit naive like that. J.
