Muslim Playboy!!

April 9, 2006 – 10:30 am

So far no riots, but a big sale on han…….never mind. Great articles:

An Indonesian version of Playboy has gone on sale in the world’s most populous Muslim nation.

A spokesman for the magazine, which has promised to tone down its erotic photographs, said copies would be available in major cities on Friday.

Lots of jokes that could be made about this, but, most of them would be in really bad taste. And Muslims are notoriously short on humor. Could get me a fatwa, though.

Earlier this year there were street protests in many towns when the magazine announced its plans to launch.

But no protests now. All the young Muslim men are defaming themselv….never mind. Do have to love the photo’s of banners written in English on the BBC site.

Mike Pecher over at The Jawa Report and The Interested Participant covered this back in January, when it was first announced.

Oh, and don’t forget, Hugh Hefner turned a frisky 80.
