Hugh Heffner: an orphan and his mansion.

If we wait long enough the saying will be proved true that:
 "What goes around will come around."
No more so than in the case of Hugh Hefner the original play boy.
Hefner was the "cause celebre" of the libertine life-style for four decades. Regular were the shots of Hugh and his harem of 'play-bunnies', an ever changing cast of leggy, bosomy, dreamy, giggly, fake looking blondes that wriggled and gushed in the spot light with their famous sugar-daddy.
But now the spot light has been turned else where, as it always does  in Tinsel Town, searching out a new generation of younger wanna-be's leaving the wrinkles to do their own work on 'yesterday's poster children.' Hugh has been left in the dark.
For sale is Hefner's PlayBoy Palace. Price: a cool $ 200,000,000.

However, before you rush off with cheque book in hand, there is a condition. Whoever buys the house has to agree to have Hugh as part of the furnishings. 
Hefner these days is no more than an orphan, a rich one, but still an orphan, lonely and displaced, a tottering effigy seeking a comfortable corner in which to end his debauched, wretched life.
Jesus once said of the rich and famous that they already have their reward IN THIS LIFE but for those who serve God, their reward is waiting in the world to come.
Think about that. And think about the house that really matters, The 
Father's House in which there are MANY MANSIONS.
My place is already booked. How about yours?

Jubilate.
