| It was a fabulous, rock 'n roll scarefest at Hef's Beverly Hills Playboy Mansion this year! There were gobs of goblins and covens of comely witches, not to mention the just damned beautiful people that populate Hefner's universe at these parties. I've been to every one of these parties, but this one was the wildest, funnest yet. No cameras are allowed, so you'll have to content yourselves with these pix of Perry and me taken as night fell on the eve of the scariest time of year. Perry was done up as Andre Aggassi and I was costumed as a special forces soldier--without pants. Why? Because that's why the forces are so special, silly.
Bill Mahr was in attendance, pretending he was Bill Mahr, and the Man In the Moon, Buzz Aldrin and his wife were wearing blue cammies that they bought in Jordan. Buzz and I dated for a while after we met at a Nixon fund raiser way back when. (We raised $5 million! Trust me, dating a man who's been to the moon is way different!) It's always nice to see him at these parties, and people flock to his table to meet him. I sat with my pal, gorgeous Julie Strain and her husband , and artist Olivia De Bernardis and her husband. And we had fun, fun, fun! Julie and I cut up for the cameras and I, of course, flashed a tit. I got up and danced with Perry and soon we were surrounded by pretty little half-naked fairies and angels and witches. Perry danced with all the cuties he could find. Perry father, Ray Anthony was there as he always is dressed as a doctor. We said hello at the desert table. Ray looks great as is still going strong. When I looked up, there was a tall, handsome warlock dancing the moonwalk. I laughed and laughed. Ryan O'Neal sat at the next table and we had a nice chat. A sexy guy, just like in the movies. June Wilkinson, busty and hot-looking as ever, wearing a black and confetti colored wig, and with her blond, hunky date in tow, came as I was leaving. James Caan stepped on the guillotine. While waiting for my car, Susan Bernard, daughter of photographer Bernard of Hollywood, came over to chat. Ray Courts of the Celebrity Colletor Shows stopped over to say hi. Ray is planning a collector's show in Chicago in April, and, if everything goes right, I will be there! Haven't been to Chicago in years. Red Buttons was there and when I went over to kiss him the photogs snapped away. The Thalians will be honoring Red next weekend and I told him I'd be there. Devin Devasquest and her handsome new boyfriend were there looking happy happy happy.
Paris Hilton danced nearby trying to attract attention as an angel. Puuleez! That is no angel, sugah! Hef's mansion is always loaded with monsters and other scary creatures jumping out of the bushes at you. Going to the bathroom can be a real adventure! But it's all good. Hef looks youthful as always and never fails to put on a great party. Thanks, Hef! Happy Halloween! | /table>

Hollywood Collector's & Celebrities Show
| It was my second appearance at Ray and Sharon Courts' Hollywood Collector's and Celebrities Show on October 2 & 3, 2004. The show was relocated to the Burbank Hilton, directly across from the Burbank Airport. It is a much larger venue for the show and there were hundreds of celebrities, exhibitors, and dealers as well as thousands of fans all in one room! What a trip for all of us! Below are some photos of me with just a few of the celebs in attendance. The one I didn't get was Larry Hagman who was attending for the first time. Sorry, no photos of Mr. Hagman, please! Oh, well.

My son, Perry, in heaven sandwiched in between his mom and someone with even bigger boobs. |
| Don Stroud (James Bond in "License to Kill", "The Buddy Holly Story", "Babylon 5", the Mike Hammer TV series) is still as rugged and sexy as always. (Girls, I saw his Playgirl layout! Zowie! You will get a very large thrill out of it, trust me! |

Saying Hi to gracious and beautiful Linda Grey of "Dallas". |
| I visited with Celeste Yarnall ("Live a Little, Love a Little" with Elvis; "The Velvet Vampire" for Roger Corman; and many, many other movie and TV appearances) who has a Ph.D in nutrition and a fantastic holistic pet care business. That's Celeste on the left and her partner, Imelda Lopez-Casper on the right. See more at Celestial Pets.

| You may think it's Jack Benny, caught in a time warp, but it's really the talented Eddie Carrol. Eddie's long been the voice of Disney's Jiminy Cricket, but he also does a one man Jack Benny show. Beautiful! (I'm giving him a solid boob-nudge to motivate that Benny slow take. |

Paul Burke from the Naked City. (I had such a crush on him! I still do!) |
Everybody's favorite fan club president,
Bob Bethia, stopped to say hi. |
