While on facebook a video came up in my news thread about the playmates of Hefner and how he set strict rules for them which got me to looking him up and reading. That's usually how things go when I'm online. I see something and I Google and it leads me to other things I came across an Amazon prime movie series of his life called American Playboy and interestingly enough he started his magazine at his little kitchen table with no money. Had to get donations. The first magazine was a hit with Marilyn Monroe and things just took off for him.

Impeachment: American Crime Story currently airing on the BBC
The scandal is not the whole story. Bill Clinton's affair with Monica Lewinsky nearly cost him the presidency, but cost her so much more. With Sarah Paulson and Beanie Feldstein.
Herewith is the link but not sure if it will work in your location

Watching the forensic files now. I guess you could say I'm a bit of a true crime junkie.

Hugh Hefner was a genius he may not have had decent morals but he built an empire starting at his little beat up kitchen table.

For my part I have been watching on a daily basis the trial of Karl Rittenhouse
re his participation in the Kenosha shootings resulting in murder of two individuals and the wounding of a third.

Hi Michelle,
It has been highlighted on cable channels since the trial began on November 2.
Today/tonight depending on your time zone the trial has concluded and the summing up as begun
The next step will be for the Jury to retire to reach its verdict...
that could days to come to the fore... but may be not.
We will just have to wait and see!

I just saw that Rittenhouse has gotten away with murder. I guess he went to go visit trump. I mean what the hell?

Yes He did on the basis of self defence yet the two men he murdered neither were armed with a gun .
And yes Trump has been praising him as a hero.
I find it all quite sickening! Michelle!

I've been watching the first series of Loudermilk...
Sam Loudermilk a recovering alcoholic and substance abuse counselor with a bad attitude,
manages to piss off everyone.
Although his drinking is under control, he discovers that when your life is a complete mess,
getting clean is the easy part.

The marvellous Mrs Maisel...
an American period comedy-drama,
in serial form that I recommend to anyone
who wants to distract from their own lives woes.
It has worked for me, maybe you also?
