Boy! There's a guy who at 91 really got his money's worth, eh? It'll take the undertaker a day and a half to get the big smile off his face!  :bye:
In the immortal words of Jimmy Scott- "pace yourself!"

What's amazing is he never had any dirty laundry stories on him.

He was like a buck who had a harem of Does to pick from most of his life while money was pouring like a flood.

It's going to be hard to say "He's in a better place now".

I was thinking that yesterday - a guy who's never had a serious scandal, yet who lived a life some would consider scandalous from start to finish.

While a lot of folks might find his lifestyle "deplorable" or "offensive," I think the one way I find myself admiring him (okay, at least one) is that there was no such thing as "taboo" to him.  The kind of topics or discussions that would make a southern baptist family cringe was just par for the course for a guy like Hugh.

That, and who DOESN'T what their own Playboy Mansion Grotto...?

He was definitely an icon, the end of an era for sure.  High was THE legend.  No doubt he died with his face buried in something that would make us all jealous  :rofl: 
Looking for the right 70 Cuda project!

Beyond the lovely ladies, Hugh also had a nice car collection and the famous jet.  Starting in 1964 the Playmate of the Year received a car of their choice too.  They started all pink but quickly changed and included a ski boat, motorcycles, a classic Chevy truck, exotic imports and some cool Mopars!

I'm not sure why this car made me think of Madonna...   :haha:

No Kidding. Not many can every say they have a wife 60 years their junior.

At first glance I thought ol' Hugh had a 2nd Gen Barracuda fastback in his driveway as his daily driver  :cool:  ... but I was wrong  :sorry:

Cheers!

Tis' better to have owned classic Mopars and lost than to have never owned at all (apologies to Alfred Lord Tennyson)

     From what I hear he's going to be buried next to Marilyn Monroe.  Also his widow will not get anything in the will due to an ironclad prenup.    :rebelflag"
