    I've written my share of pleadings but never before have the words, "COMES NOW" seemed so ridiculous.

    I was in the hospital with a broken leg, still woozy from the pain meds, and when I came to the nurse was leaning over me. Then I realized, shocked, that my nurse was my wife's sister! My wife's very busty sister....

    I just love those taglines on the cover.


    'No Holes Barred' - not even the ears?


    'If you Bring Her She Will Come... You Too!' - I love how a stroke magazine is reminding you that they haven't forgotten about your pleasure.

    Because when you go to work for Penthouse Letters you know you're working for a classy organization concerned with the actualization and development of each and every employee.

    It must be really confusing to the not=so=smart porn workers (or Penthouse Pets or whatever their correct title is) what appropriate office behavior is. They make a living off of crossing boundaries, right? They may think that placing their breasts on someone's head is, um, playful? Fun? The numnut administrators running the office are another story! So glad Natalie Cedeno is suing them. Anyone seeking a Penthouse Pet or sex worker may want their boundaries crossed. People working on the corporate side, office employees etc., should be given the respect of our constitutional rights. When are these frat boys gonna grow up?

    @depardoo:


    Really?! The 14th amendment protects citizens from sexual harrassment at a private workplace? I thought that was the jurisdiction of Civil Rights Act of 1964?


    Hm, I thought the 14th Amend could only be applied to a sexual harrassment case when the employer or school was a state entity?

    I was trying to make a crude joke (obviously unsuccessfully). Of course, there's no constitutional issue here because there's no state action. I was trying not to state that expressly because I thought you had captured it handsomely. Let's call the whole thing off.

    By the way, recall that Tribe said that calling New Jersey the "Garden State" was more aspirational than descriptive.

    Gotta love Valleywag - they had such great traffic with last week's Friendfinder story, they had to follow it up with this lame - ass NON-story. Anything to get a hot chick on the home page. What a joke. If you want to be an adult site - then do it already! Require everyone leaving a post to upload a nude picture....here's mine.....

    Penthouse has been over for years. Yet another magazine that seemed to have a level of "talent" that declined over the years. It's no great loss, I don't even collect the magazines from its prime and I'm a sucker for old porn.
