Wow, Playboy magazine for the blind! I guess no one will doubt a blind person's excuse of buying it for the articles...
Our tax dollars fund this: "The National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped, a division of the Library of Congress, maintains a free national library of braille materials. Playboy was selected on the basis of demonstrated reader interest; Congress funds free distribution of the braille edition."

***UPDATE***
Ok, so some of you may remember this *possibly* incriminating photo of me posing with a Romanian issue of Playboy magazine. I can assure you I did not buy it, I read the article on Yoko Ono, and I drooled over the photo of Brad Pitt on the back cover.

You'd think Playboy for the blind would be like a pop-up book, but no... just Dirty Braille Pictures!

Haha! Funny, but that's not the real Playboy braille edition; the real braille issues don't contain pictures or ads, only words.
Forgot to ask: Why are you drooling with your tongue out as you're "reading the Yoko Ono article."

I'm drooling over Brad Pitt! (no offense to Yoko...)
