Thanks so much, Richard! Of course I remember the Playboy philosophy.
Does he still write that column?
Also wondering--is Garden City anywhere near Roslyn Heights? I lived
there for a few months in my teens while my mother was in the hospital.
Attended Mineola Jr. High, knew early likenesses of Amy Fisher and Joey
Buttafuoco.
Thanks again,
Rachel
