Bunnies working the New Orleans Playboy Club
Article written by a girl who worked the NO Playboy Club. Some of the older posters will probably get her references to 70s NO.

I read that article shortly after Katrina. I thought then and still think she should turn it into a book. It wouldn't be too hard for her -- after Playboy Laura became a reporter for the Miami Herald and Denver Post. She's also written several novels.
Here (possibly NSFW) is Laura in a TV interview from 2011. She's still looking pretty good at almost 60.
Here's a recent pic. Still not too bad for pushing 70.

Whats funny about that picture is that guy considered himself fat. We have members here that look like that and swear if they lose another 20-30 lbs they would look like skeletor.
Guess thats why you hardly see anyone fat in any of the picture. Was no fat acceptance back then, 20 lbs overweight was fricking fat and obese.

a college buddy's dad had a "key" to the NO Playboy club, he and I went in there when we were 18, as a seasoned veteran of the poon game I've got a pretty good poker face, but as an 18 year old punk who hadn't been out on the town very much at that point, I can't imagine what a rube I must have looked like

Women protesting forced hijab, only days after the Iranian Revolution, 1979.
On 8 March 1979, more than 100,000 women gathered on the streets of the Iranian capital to protest against the new Islamic government’s compulsory hijab ruling, which meant that women would henceforth be required to wear a headscarf when away from home. The protest was held on International Women’s Day.

I'm guessing they were all killed the next day?
