Hello readers, Playboy Al here!

Lets get to some reader mail:

Dear PB Al,
Would you consider last month's (November) Playboy the best issue of all time?

Signed,

Jake the Snake in OH

Well Jake, it certainly was ONE of the best of all time. I mean considering that we had Brooke Burke in a spectacular pictorial, although I have to admit I am not a big fan of hers. I had seen some earlier black & white nudes of her long before her initial PB shoot so this new set really didn't do anything for me, although no doubt she is smokin' hot. Teen Miss USA was a great pictorial as well, I mean damn, she is one hot 18 year old. For my money though, the best part of last month's issue was Carla Zavaleta, former MTV Road Ruler. Her girl next door good looks and gorgeous body defines what it means to be a Playmate, at least for me anyway. So, best issue ever? Nah. I would have to give that disctinction to an older issue that featured a nice Pam Anderson spread or something. But thanks, your question gave me a great idea for an upcoming column.

Her federal lawsuit says she was subjected to sexual and religious harassment, discrimination and retaliation after people there learned of her three-month affair with former President Bill Clinton. Then they allegedly fired her because she complained of the harassment to the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, her suit claims. Miller, the Miss Arkansas 1958 and a former Playboy centerfold model, went public with her claim of having had an affair with the former president after Clinton's 1992 presidential election campaign.
