FROCKWATCH: Grandpa & his Barbies
I love how 'The Girls Next Door" have somehow normalised the bizarre Hugh Hefner - who is 83 - and his three girlfriends who are in their 20s.
The words 'polygamy' and 'yuck' are never used. Instead it's sweet and almost wholesome according to the show which makes them seem like the post-modern Brady Bunch....







omigoodness, another Friday is here and Mia's still posting,
even I'm getting nervous....

oh yeah, and as this is a Frockwatch frippery, I'll chose the blue on the right, just lose the shorts.....

damn it, 'choose', ok

I am........... lost for words. I don't like the outfits, or the show (saw it once, that was enough).
AND - Gigdiary has commented on the glory that is FrockWatch!

What a waste of money...(with the exception of the red outfit), the rest are gauche beyond belief.

What I find alarming is that unfortunately I know all the girlfriends names....
I have probably only see the show once....
Ugh.

I love the show, not because it's mind blowingly good ... just because it's entertaining, so far from my reality and just hilarious how far from reality they all are!

I have seen the show a couple of times and found it to be quite boring. What a strange situation these girls have got themselves in. I just always wonder what their mums think of their "arrangement". I actually used to think Hef was great after seeing a doco on him once, but now he is starting to turn himself into an almost cartoonish character of a dirty old man. I would love to attend a party at the playboy mansion though.

There was a little thing in S in today's SMH saying the baby was born earlier this week. Apparently, it's a boy,3kg, but they didn't know the name.
There's also a joke about naming it Eggplant-Tahini or Navahoe...so I'm thinking someone may die now :P

!!!~~~Congratulations~~~!!!
Yesh, with all the discussion going on about names around this place I do believe Cerry is right. Someone will be shot.

I hope Mia officially announces it on here...
I'll believe it when I hear it from her (or if I see it on CBB!)
