When she gets out, you think Hef will give her another go?]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Not only does your blog share the beauty and charms of many memorable women, and some of them fondly remembered from my youth, but you have also done much here to show us who these women were and are, beyond just their physical beauty. It makes for some very fascinating reading.

It is my pleasure to share with you The Liebster Blog Award. There is no need for you to do anything with it, other than to just enjoy it and take it as a compliment. Have a great day! :-)

		<description><![CDATA[Any post would be nice. I miss you.
Maybe she was in one of the Playboys I collected when I was a little boy out trash picking...
When I was in the fifth grade, about 1966 or so, there was a TIME Magazine that came to the house. I&#039;ll never forget the cover. There was a girl in a bikini, not a string bikini mind you, but one of those 60&#039;s Grandma style very modest two-pieces. The headline for the Magazine said &quot;THE NUDE LOOK&quot;.
So I picked up the magazine and took it into the kitchen where Mom was warming up the Totinos Pizza rolls for dinner and asked:
&quot;Mom, what does &quot;NUDE&quot; mean?&quot;
And she bustled over to the sink and washed her hands. I thought maybe she didn&#039;t hear me, so I stepped over to the sink and asked again:
&quot;Mom, what does &quot;NUDE&quot; mean?&quot;
And she looked down at the magazine, avoiding any eye contact with me, and she turned back to the stove to check on the pizza rolls. So I asked again:
&#039;Mom, what...&quot; but before I could finish, she said:
&quot;Stevie, go wash your hands, dinner is ready.&quot;
I think about that all the time, that is to say, that little scene crosses my mind every now and then. The thing is, I already knew what nude was. In fact, upstairs under my toy box I had three Playboy magazines I&#039;d found while out trash pickin&#039; the week before. I&#039;ll never forget the day a few weeks later I came home from school and my modest little stash of Playboys was gone.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Went back to look at the original post. I guess threatening to sue Wikipedia didn&#039;t work out as well.

The thing about a nine year sentence is how much of it do you suppose she&#039;ll actually serve once the parole board accounts for her age, good behavior, budget cuts, and any appeals? 18 months? Two years? Three on the outside?]]></description>
