Must like-- or at least have an eye for-- naked females and circulation numbers. CNBC reports that Playboy Enterprises' longtime chairwoman and CEO Christine Hefner is stepping down. Worried that you'd be inheriting a load of bad assets and asses? Au contraire. According to Hefner the balance sheet is "solid," profitability was reclaimed in the third quarter, and she wouldn't be leaving if the business weren't in such "great shape." As for her replacement in what Hef characterizes as a "terrific opportunity" at a brand that's "never been hotter," the board's got nada, so send your resumes and head shots today.

Only a boob would take the Playboy job. It's bush league. Why not snatch a better gig?

Heard that Christie had been trying to get dad to stop running his personal expenses (and it's millions upon millions) through the business. Hugh said it was helping "the brand". So she got fed up and will let him plead his case to a non-relative.

Who should be on the cover if they were to publish this issue today? I say Bess.
And the "EXCLUSIVE" story should be about Charlie Gasparino. "The best punch I ever threw was at Dennis Kneale".

a bit nsfw.
Posted by Anal_yst , Dec 08, 2008 11:27AM
yea, unfortunately borderline SFW/NSFW, better to err on the side of caution.
Regardless, where do I send my resume?
Posted by guest , Dec 08, 2008 11:47AM
@17, I can't believe there are that many hot chicks willing to do those things on camera.
I've dated some of the most depraved chicks on the planet and none would come close to doing that.
What am I doing wrong?
Posted by guest , Dec 08, 2008 12:02PM
@4 good pun i like the bush league reference

@18: The "snatch" one was better.

Perhaps Tess from Working Girl can try out for the photo shoot. Where's the next generation Melanie Griffith from Staten Island and Sigorny Weaver from the Upper East Side?
