He wasn't much of a pipe smoker; it was more for show, according to his second in command. I was told this many years ago when I asked.

Hugh definitely brandished his pipe on his TV show. He had some great guests, but the show was

painfully affected/stilted, really embarrassing. But if I recall, he had Dave Brubeck on there,

Sammy Davis Jr., and others.

Hey, Hef is like in his nineties. I suspect he's pretty frail. He's come back from a stroke or

two, and he hasn't exactly lived a health spa lifestyle. Despite working in his pajamas, he's

always been something of a workaholic, I think. If I recall, his upbringing was pretty

straight-laced religious, so his interpretation of living large had a sort of Presbyterian

subtext to it. Hedonistic yes, but sort of programmatic too. You had to have the right

sound system or you might go to hell.
