This cover also came in the time when Larry went through his Evangelical Christian phase.. it can also be seen as a period in time when it may have (strong on the may have part) been a satire on how as a good Christian treating women like meat as seen as bad... though is his "hustle for God " period he said he would continue to publish the magazine,, which lasted for a whole year until he was shot and declared himself an atheist after that... but during that year the magazine did reflect some of this.

I thought this was for people who we wished to rest in peace?

Prince Philip taken to hospital: fingers crossed that we'll be rid of another useless and racist burden to the English taxpayer soon... I mean, the ****er's 99! Die already, would you? Have some dignity. Oh. Wait.

Maybe Elton John will show up for his funeral and sing a song.
