Here's an update on my adventures with _Playgirl_.

I sent in a set of photos as my application to  be  part  of  "The  Men  of
Mensa"  last week.  Having not heard from them since, I just called to make
sure they got them.  They said the typical delay is 6 - 8 weeks before they
send  out a response (~sigh~).  Up 'til now I'd assumed I wasn't an instant
reject, anyway.  Oh, well.

Net response has been surprising.  So far, my mail has been 100%  positive.
The  few  net  postings  I've  seen  have  been mostly neutral or positive.
Hardly a flame in the bunch.

I'm a little disappointed.  After the general hullabaloo  over  _Playboy's_
"The  Women  of  Mensa" I thought there'd be _some_ controversy attached to
the _Playgirl_ equivalent.  Apparently no one's much  concerned  about  men
posing in the nude.  How's that for sexism?

Anyway, when they let me know, I'll let you know.  Thanks again to all  who
wrote with encouragement.
