   Dirk Shafer, a former Playgirl magazine centerfold who   
   chronicled his experiences as a closeted gay man in a 1995 mock   
   documentary, “Man of the Year,” was found dead on Thursday in   
   West Hollywood, Calif. He was 52.   
      
   Craig Harvey, a spokesman for the Los Angeles County medical   
   examiner’s office, said Mr. Shafer was discovered in the front   
   passenger seat of his car on a residential street. The cause of   
   death had not been determined, he said, adding that there was no   
   evidence of trauma or drug or alcohol use.   
      
   Mr. Shafer, who posed nude in a series of pictorials in   
   Playgirl, was named the magazine’s “Man of the Year” in 1992. He   
   also wrote, directed and starred in films that were popular at   
   gay film festivals.

   Gay + West Hollywood + gay films = one too many times up the ass.
