Vivid Threatens John Gray

Publisher John Gray writes: I received an interesting call or should I say threat from Vivid's David Schlessinger who demanded that I sign over my url vividtv.com today without compensation or else. He demanded that I do it today. When I told him I had to check with my partner he gave me his 800 number and asked when could I get back to him, I said as soon as I can talk with my partner on the site and he screamed Well I need it done today, How can you get something like that done at 2:00 PM Friday even if I wanted to. He said I was infringing on their trademark. I told him that the url was for sale and he then hung up the phone. I will keep you posted-John."

XXX: "Kevin Beech only hires ex-cons."

These f---ing Cunts

Director James DiGiorgio writes: hey lukey, some f---ing cunt called my office this morning before i got there and asked for me. one of my guys answered the phone and told the guy i wasn't there yet. this piece of s--- then told my guy that i better watch myself because rob and i are f---ing with the wrong people and that we're going to find out what happens when the wrong people are f---ed with. of course, these 'wrong people' don't have the f---ing balls to say who they are--just like this prick whose been running his mouth about rob on your site. course, my guy invited the asshole over but apparently he declined the invitation...which still stands. so just like rob, i have the same attitude. if you don't have the balls to say who you are, then go f--- yourself. ya see lukey, a lot of people don't realize that while the word 'cunt' is traditionally applied to females (in a derogatory fashion), the vast majority of cunts in the porn biz aren't female. persaonlly, i rarely, if ever , use that word applied to a female. but i do find myself using it a lot, because there are so f---ing many cunts in this business...and they know who they are....and they're literally all guys! so listen cunt, if you have something to say, just like i do right now, have the balls to say it -- and have the balls to identify yourself-- if not, you're just what we know you are: a f---ing cunt who can shove his little threats up his own asshole.

Max Hardcore vs Olivia

MaxHardcore.com writes: Olivia of past porn fame is back in the business and looking terrific. That is until Max talked her into doing a scene with him a few days ago. She was literally trembling before the scene. "I'm scared Max. Really scared."

"Don't worry, I promise to be nice." Oops - Mistake! Midway through the scene, with lipstick smeared across her face, piss dripping from her hair, and a cock rammed up her ass, Olivia, in the opinion of all involved, did not look very pretty anymore. In fact, she looked destroyed. "I guess I'm just a f---ing whore," she whimpered as she drew the lipstick around her pussy while getting pumped in the ass. Yes, that would describe it pretty good, Olivia. Olivia will appear in in the final volume of Maxed Out, #20, in July of 2000. As always, Video Caps and a Photo Set with a distinctly European look will appear on maxhardcore.com prior to release.

Pat Riley On Porn Chicks

Pat Riley writes on RAME: Hey Ultradamno, I checked out your recommendation of Christine Agulera (sp?) on some music awards show this week on TV. She actually did a song and there's a reasonable number of close-ups. The nicest thing I can say is that she has a cute little body but facially, well, I'd have to put a bag over her head to screw her. Hard as a $10 whore who she resembles. Somewhat like Skylar Chase (aka Sky).

Torris, are you SURE Brittney Spears has had her tits done? She obviously wasn't wearing a bra or if she was it was just a cup for each tit held on with crazy glue. I wish these TV camera guys would screw up and in her case give us a side shot. She had a dress open to the waist in front and it looked like a good side shot would have shown at least a side view of her tits. No such luck though. I've already commented that she's hard as nails too although slightly prettier than Christine.

The TV week was not all bleak though. I was watching Beverly Hills 90210 with the sound off supposedly paying attention to the wife blabbing about something and noticed Vanessa Marcil. Sort of reminds me of the brunette Cassidy from a few years back. I'm in love! Pretty and soft with a very nice smile. Minor disfigurement of a mole on her left cheek though (she probably thinks it's a "beauty" mark). Checking her out in the IMDB I notice she's 31. Yikes! Almost a grandma! No movies where she gets completely naked and has a quality sex scene. Pity. Most not on video and The Rock has grandpa Sean Connery which would be like watching Randy West have sex. Yecch! Not that there's any nudity from her in the movie according to the reviews.

Porn exceedingly boring these days. Ed is exercising his Oriental fetish which might be OK if he'd use high quality Oriental girls. The mutts in #111 have caused me to break my every-MDD rule; I'm not going to watch it. 110 volumes is enough! Maybe if he gets some decent looking girls I might recommence.

And that's true with other series. Watched Fresh Flesh #10. Naughty Childs--only if you like fatties and not too pretty; Charlie Angel--butt ugly black girl; Leslie Rene--whorish, old, heavily used, married, flabby belly; Stevie Rose--flabby belly, hard-as-nails fleshy stripper; Chocolate--worn out her welcome but still has a nice butt. Sheesh, one tiny little good thing to say about one girl. What a waste of time. Oh, and the moaning and groaning is about as fake as a $3 bill. All these mothers too. If you want to be a mother you can't be a porn performer! End of f...ing story. Oh, and no diseased broads either, Brandy.

Pick Up Lines #46 seems to have moved off into Brazil. In the first scene they actually pay the whore on camera. Yeah that'll allow me to fantasize that her moans are real--NOT. Some useless clinical Hungarians too--at least I think so; they could all be Brazilian. Leslie Taylor--an ugly SOB who's now called Lex Taylor--is Hungarian or Czech so I doubt they'd ship him over to Brazil. Tara Patrick is in this too and I must say I can't see what you guys see in her. Too big, far too big and she's whelped too. She also has the enthusiasm of the girl scanning my groceries but if you're interested she's screwed by Billy Glyde over a car. Ends in an in-mouth cum shot or there might not have even been a cum shot--you just see saliva. Maybe Billy is as enamored with her as I am. The rest are the usual silly facials with the girl grinning like an idiot at the camera. Yeah, I'd be really pleased if some asshole dumped a load of gooey stuff all over my face! And rounding out this waste of time was Misty who's not Misty Rain but yet another effing mother judging by her belly. She first appeared in North Pole Series #11 (I think).

I see fatty Nikki Anderson is doing a tour in the US before she has to retire to a job like Monica L's back in her native Hungary. Tony Martino screws her in Just 18 #2. Jeez, he's looking really dissolute, not that he was ever anything more than a marginal stud. Now he reminds me of Smalley Pauley. Anyone seen that monstrosity? The "Just 18" is about as honest as we've come to expect from the porno industry. I see Kristen (ex Zane g'friend) who is retiring to clean pools--at least she doesn't have over-inflated dreams of becoming the next Gwenyth Paltrow--has added a big tattoo on her back. I thought she had more sense! At least she's marginally into the sex but her partner Tice Bune looks like he's had too many late nights. Another tattoo farm in the movie is Amanda Rain. She's not too pretty but at least she's not visibly a mother. Also appearing are Vivi Anne who does an anal with--who else--the munchkin. Not that I object to the same guy or him in particular but at least you'd think they'd try to put some passion into the scene. Do they actually screw like this at home? And then there's Gia Maria who's screwed by JJ too. I suppose she was OK but they went on with some silly lollipop sucking reminiscent of Max.

Speaking of Max. Innovative? You must be joking Ridley. I can't even get excited about Max's misogyny. Every movie, every scene is the same. Boring. Oh maybe he alternates between raping a 12 year old under the pretense of being a truant officer and screwing her big sister/mother who comes to remonstrate with him. Yeah, and sometimes he has the speculum in their assholes and sometimes in their pussies and sometimes both. Great innovation! Max was innovative back when Alex De Renzy brought out the Rosebud all-anal movies and Ed started picking up girls at bus stops and Vivid produced the first few of the Brat series. De Renzy retired or died (has anyone heard from him recently) and Vivid sensibly stopped after the third Brat. Neither Ed nor Max have the sense to move on.

Like for performers, porn is not a permanent job. Directors age and become stale. We need new blood with new ideas. Get a real job guys.

I see Ridley didn't like Rough Sex #2 but thinks the sun shines out of Max. Frankly I don't see much difference. They're both designed to appeal to the misogynistic raincoater. Whether you're punching the girl in the face or just calling her a filthy little slut (a pretend 12 year old you're raping--let that sink in) it's providing the same thrill. The bitch is getting it at last. Or maybe it's Mommy who abandoned you to the care of strangers and that flickering screen. Next stop is blood, maybe a few bleeding noses or black eyes--all consensual of course. And then maybe a pretend (one hopes) snuff movie. Well, maybe one doesn't hope. Maybe it's a way to clean out the debris in the industry, both performers and producers.

Oh, and I see that in the interests of showing that rame is not representative, our anonymous moderator is waxing on about how most porno watchers are young guys. I just don't see this. I went to four large Brooklyn rental stores this week (I'm trying to find one that has some Something Weird rentals--nada) in addition to my usual. I was there at around midday and about seven PM and saw a large number of guys. Only one in one store was under 30. Lots of gray hair, not to mention horrible out of shape fat bodies. One particularly unpleasant guy who must have weighed 300lbs and was wheezing with asthma or emphysema actually started yelling out loud about this and that "bitch" and "whore". He had about five or six tapes too and seemed to be known to the desk clerk. Judging by the smell another hadn't changed his underwear in a month. The female desk clerk came around with an aerosol deoderizer after he left.

Oh, I think rame is pretty representative of porno viewers, at least in my area. Young guys rent one movie; raincoaters rent half a dozen. Young guys come in once a month/ week; raincoaters are there daily.

Matt and others seem to think some of the porn people should be challenging the system. For what? More Rough Sex? More "Take that you filthy little cocksocket." Such a laudable social change! In comparing the current state to the seventies you forget that there's no social change involved in fisting or golden showers and if you think that anyone is going to support screwing 12 year olds by 40+ year old sleazy guys or punching out the women, you're much mistaken. In contrast in the seventies some of the people were fighting to see sex as a more relaxed endeavor distinct from marriage and changing the position of women from being housewives to being independent and sexually active. Lots of lies from the times but at least it was social change that many could acquiesce to if not support. Big difference!

What do people see in Tawny Lyons? This woman's body died years ago. I saw her in Dirty Pictures #3 from Desperate Video with Rod Fontana (another who should find a regular job). Desperate is right. Two sex scenes only, one with cellulite-ridden badly damaged belly Tawny and the other with tenth-trick-of-the-day Shai. Rod does her too. They pad out the video to 1hr 3min with some scenes of Tawny scrubbing Rod's genetic filth off herself in the shower.

Some questions: Why don't Stagliano, Silvera, and John Leslie move to Hungary? Since all their movies seem to be shot there it would save on commuting.

Is there some reason Extreme (Rob Black) can't put a cast list on their boxes?

Who the f..k is Nikki Lai? Give me a movie she's appeared in.

Gossip

Joseph writes: I just saw Lois Ayres dancing at Sam's Hof Brau in downtown L.A still looks good for her age. Also durring the day time you can catch celebs like Quentin Tarintino hanging around nice guy, but the girls say he's pretty cheap as in he doesn't tip at all..

Vivid Gossip

I hear that Vivid's internet operations have 30,000 members, paying $50 a month. Gross revenues for 1999 should total about $30 million, just for Vivid internet. And it is booming. Within six months, Vivid went from hiring out its small net sites (to Web Magic) to a huge in-house operation which has brought its head David Schlessinger into favorite-son status with Vivid owner Steve Hirsch. The two focused disciplined driven men resemble each other.

XXX: "Vivid aligned themselves with XPays which owns Pornstar.com. Xpays is a program similar to Sextracker.com's moneytree.com. You send them traffic and they send it to a myriad of programs that convert for you, like SICcash and Vivid.

"XPays is owned by Michael Laudau and Evan Horowitz, two good Jewish kids from San Francisco. Their whole motto is "XPays always pays on time." In fact, they pay early."

XXX: "Everyone at Vivid are so fed up. That company is crumbling. Nobody likes Vivid. Steve Hirsch is so cheap. What goes around, comes around. They've rested on their laurels. I think that Vivid girls Raylene and Sky are probably leaving."

I hear that net head David Schlessinger promises people, 'I'm going to make you so much money.' But Vivid rarely comes through with pay raises.

Johnson: "Marci, Steve's overweight older sister, is head of production. She f---s all the cute guys. John Dough, Bobby Vitale, Marc Wallice, Colt Steele, Steven St. Croix... That's how Mr. Marcus got his directing deal for Vivid Raw. She hits on the good looking young guys who work there.

"Marci doesn't do as much work as her assistant.

"Marci is nice. Most people like her. She even talks smack about her own brother, how she wants a new office and he won't even spend money on her.

"Everyone at Vivid complains. Even Steve Hirsch complains. They can't be satisfied. They could make a billion dollars a year... Steve is a snake. He doesn't care about anybody. He just cares about making money. He's paranoid, always afraid of other companies overtaking him. You'd think he's doing so well that he could live happily but he can't. He's always paranoid and nervous. He wishes he could've made a living outside of porn. He'll never be happy. He's jealous of people richer than him.

"Head of sales Howard Levine complains about his salary. He asked Steve for a raise and Steve agreed but has never given it to him. Howard's probably the most highly paid man there, about $250,000 a year. The lowest paid get $8 an hour. Schlessinger is getting a percentage of the site, so he's probably clearing $200,000...

"David's a good talker, that's how he got in good with Hirsch. David has Steve wrapped around his finger. Steve confides in him. They're similar personality wise. David is a like a younger version of Steve, has that ruthlessness. David pretends to be everyone's best friend.

"Every day there is a new problem and new fiasco at Vivid. The company is so disorganized. The departments are at each other's throats. There are no company wide meetings. Everyone is dissing everyone. Animosity all over the place. The production department resents the internet department because now the internet department is so big, it gets most of Steve's attention. Hirsch is always in the internet department, talking to David.

"They're making so much money you'd think they'd make sure individually that everyone is happy."

Sinnamon Dispells Rumors

Porn star Sinnamon writes: Today, a few things happened that disturbed me. I was scheduled to shoot my very first sceen for The Pussyman. I was looking forward to f---ing my favorite new girl, Charlie Angel, and the second guy that ever f---ed me on camera, ( and gave me my name) Kyle Stone. Due to something rather typical in the female porn world, a late driver followed by car trouble, I was late for the shoot and wound up missing the shoot altogether. My apologies to the Pussyman. I've always liked his worked and in the seven years I've been affilated with the industry, I have always wanted the privilege to be one of his girls, even if for the day.

Now the scoop; After the shoot, I received a call from Charlie Angel and Julian St. Jox, asking what happened. Julian then informed me that rumour had it that someone said I wasn't there because I was on "THE LIST". That I must have worked with Santino and that was why I didn't show. Anyone with half a brain knows that Producers receive a copy of the list long before talent finds out who is what. It's been only 30 min. since I spoke to Julian and Charlie, and already I'm getting calls regarding this. People are saying I worked with Santino. THE TRUTH: NO!

I have not worked with Santino in over a year. I did not attend any parties during CES either. I was too exhausted to party, I had just returned from two weeks in New York City finalizing the deal for my new, New York based production company, Ay Poppi Productions, and being photographed for my upcoming website, www.nastysinnamon.com (Sorry, can't pass up the opportunity to shamelessly plug the launch date; which happens to be Monday, January 24, 2000) Anyone that happens to want to spread nasty rumours should check the source FIRST. But then, they wouldn't be rumour, they'd be fact.

I'm not sure if the comment supposedly made by Rob Spallone about a girl named Cinnamon is supposed to be about me, since Cinnamon, and it's many variations, is a common porn/dancer name. But I did make a comment to Mark Spiegler, this morning prior to my booked time, that I had to go to AIM to retest. Not because AIM f---ed up, but because the driver the lab sent froze the specimens instead of leaving them room temp. I was phoned by Wynsday this morning, saying that as a result, I and anyone else that tested yesteday would have to retest. I know there is friction between Rob and Sharon, but I love them both. They both have the same common goal, the safety of performers in the biz. On a side note, I am currently working on a proposal to be submitted to several condom companies to utilize adult film stars in print ads. Anyone interested in participating, please email me at nastysinnamon@hotmail.com. Thanks for listening. My best wishes and most sincere prayers to Caramel, Ashley, and Dick.

Rob Spallone called Luke at 5PM: "This girl Sinnamon said that everybody who tested yesterday with Sharon Mitchell [AIM], she f---ed up. She froze all the blood. They all have to be retested. She made another mistake."

Luke called AIM. Sharon was out. An assistant said that there was a problem with their blood processing laboratory which caused the need for retesting.

Mitchell was home sick Friday.

Rob spent about an hour on the phone Thursday with Brandy Alexandre.

BrandyAlx1: Spallone is not as bad in voice as he appears in print.
Luzdedos1: how was it?
BrandyAlx1: Fine. Even though we diverge on some subjects we are of like mind on others. If only there were other people in the world who could effectively compartmentalize opinions and find common ground.
BrandyAlx1: I've tried that with others, but they get stuck on one note and let it lead them around blindly. It's probably a maturity thing.

Gossip

Friday night, Chuck Martino, Vivid girl Sky, and net porner went to the Garden of Eden bar in Hollywood. And this guy starts up with net porner. Net porner gets Chuck and Martino curses him out. Throws a cold bottle of beer in his face. Beats the hell out of the guy. He's scared out of his boots of Chuck. And he ends up getting kicked out the bar and we stay.

Luke's Ex-Girlfriend Tells All

In March, 1993, Luke answered a singles ad in the Northern California Jewish Bulletin based in San Francisco and met a prodigiously endowed 5' Jewess. I call her Lana in my autobiography. She was my second lover. Here's an excerpt:

3/18 Lana (not her real name) phoned in the evening. This five-foot SJF with naturally E-cup breasts wanted to know what I had told my stepmother Gill about her.

"That you look for extra-terrestrials in outerspace," I said. It's true. Lana volunteers for NASA. Lana says that the strangest creature she has ever found is me. I once complained to my brother Paul that I'd never find anyone like myself.

"To find someone like you, Luke," said Paul, "you'd have to go to Mars." Later in the evening, my stepmother asked who phoned. I replied "Twin Peaks."

Thursday evening, I talked to Lana aka Diana for the first time in years. She has a husky sexy voice.

Diana: "Do you still talk to your boyfriend Dennis [Prager]?"

Luke: "Not for a couple of years. Not since I started writing about him."

Diana: "Are you still having sex with porno stars?"

Luke: "Only with two-and-a-half."

Diana: "You did it with a midget?"

Luke: "No, the half refers to just a blowjob."

Diana: "I'm in the midst of a breakup right now. He's on his way over here for me to finish the job. I sort of ended it last week but he won't accept it. I'm still in school [since 1990]. I have six classes left for my degree and I'm working towards my sixth belt in Tae Kwan Do. My breasts are now size C, since the reduction. I've just got a new job with a start-up and a whole bunch of stock options... This guy is not Jewish, two kids, a lot of baggage...

"He's one of the few guys who hasn't stolen from me, or robbed me or lied and cheated."

Luke laughs hysterically.

Diana: "You know what Luke, you were the best of them. It went downhill. The people who sponged off me. I had to put two guys after you into jail. One was in for a year and one for a month. You started a trend in my life, thank you..."

Diana: "And when you date, do you take her to dinner and things like that?"

[I never took Diana out. We just talked and f---ed.]

Luke: "Yes."

Diana: "Really?"

Luke: "I was sick when I knew you."

Diana: "Did you play off your illness? At times you could've gotten out of the house but you opted to say that you were too ill."

Luke: "If I had really pushed myself..."

Diana: "Are you still a big fan of classical music?"

Luke: "Yes, I have 40 classical music CDs and one rock CD - Elton John's Greatest Hits."

Diana: "I kick myself for ripping up your tapes [audio tapes I made her which she ripped up in our breakup]. I miss the craziness of them.

"I wonder if I would recognize your penis if I saw it on video."

Luke: "You can't see it in any video or picture. All you see is her head and my hand moving it back and forth over the enormous length of my cock."

Diana: "How could I forget. If I had to remember one thing about that whole period it would be the middle of the night visits to my room. It would be me trying to sleep and all of a sudden I sense the door opening, and you, tissue in hand, would come into the room. With tissues. Always with tissues. Those were the good ol' days."

Luke: "You were my second lover. I've had 40 since. See what you did to me?"

Diana: "Are you still doing the old pen pal thing with women around the world?"

Luke: "No, not at all. Just working."

Diana: "Are you bisexual?"

Luke: "No."

Diana: "What will probably make you a success is the same thing that makes people hate you - and that's that you will print anything that is said. You will not edit anything. And that's always been your thing."

Luke: "Yep, that's what we were doing when we were working on my bio."

Diana: "I still have your binder with your bio and your discs of your bio. Every moment with you was about you and your autobiography.

"I find it fascinating that you got into this industry. They call you the Matt Drudge of the Porno industry. I just can't believe what you do. How do the women you date feel about it?"

Luke: "They don't like it."

Diana: "You weren't a bad lover. Considering how ill you were, you managed well."

Luke: "I've never been with a woman whose knockers were as naturally large as yours."

Diana: "It was the funniest thing. You had these pink shorts that were all ripped. And I'd just open my eyes and you'd have this big smile on your face and tissues in your hand and you'd tiptoe in and crawl into bed.

"It was just before Father's Day and you couldn't decide if you were Hasidic... And I remember shaving you [Luke's earlocks] and trimmed your hair and you looked really good. And you looked in the mirror and you really liked what you saw. And I unleashed a monster. You looked like a dirty old man when I first met you. But there was just something underneath. Your brilliance was just an incredible challenge.

"The one thing I'll give you, and the one thing my mother and I always said, was that you are brilliant. To a fault. The man I've been dating couldn't fire my mind if he had a blowtorch. You reach a point where you tire of defining words all day... He wants to be an author and I say to him, 'How the f--- are you going to write a book if you don't know any words?' I'm getting nasty in my old age."

Luke: "What would you like to tell l-keford.com readers about the real Luke?"

Diana: "I am so excited to have the opportunity. The sad part is that I really believe that deep in there is a relatively normal, fairly caring, sensitive individual. But I don't think that gets hits to your site."

Luke: "Tell them what a rapacious bastard I was."

Diana: "Rapacious... I've seen that word on your website. I try to read as much of your site as I can and then I get nauseous. I hated you for so long and you made it so easy. You still make it easy.

"I couldn't be indifferent. I just had so many emotions and so many feelings about you. And I would read and I would get to the parts that included "Lana" and I'd just become enraged. "f--- him, I'm not reading his website. He's not getting another hit out of me, goddamn it. And shut it down."

Luke: "The porn industry can't understand me."

Diana: "Porn people get upset because of things you write about them. What they don't realize about l-keford.com is that it has nothing to do with them, it is all about Luke. Everything you say, everything you write is 1000% about you."

Luke: "But what about in our relationship? Wasn't I very giving?"

Diana peas off into hysterical laughter.

Diana: "Remember we were talking about the books you want to write. "I Want To Give But I Don't Know How." And how I got you the book, "The Givers and the Takers." You are the center of your world. This permeates every facet of your existence, it's the Wonderful World of Luke. Welcome to me."

Luke: "Do you think I seek attention?"

Diana peals off into hysterics.

Diana: "I don't know why you are in such desperate need of attention. I don't know who traumatized you so terribly as a child that you will seek attention at whatever the cost, whether it is positive or negative, with death threats, it makes no difference. So long as the letter is stamped and addressed to you. You don't care. As long as it focuses on you, talks about you, references you, alludes to you, smells of you, it doesn't matter. I don't know why that it is. I read your autobiography and tried to figure out who did that to you. I don't know if you are still lashing out at your father over and over and over."

Luke: "How would you describe my relationship with my father?"

Diana: "What relationship? That's my description. Your household was the strangest environment. Have you ever eaten a piece of meat, chicken or fish?"

Luke: "No."

Diana: "Your home was fascinating but it was nuts. From the secret romps in your father's bathtub, to your father sleeping in a net in the porch... When your mother and I went away for July 4th, she and I couldn't wait to shove cupcakes in our mouth. Your household was very stifling and for someone like you who feels a constant need to express themselves...

"As far as your readers and people in the industry, they are always going to hate you. Until you stop needing the attention. You are a great scapegoat and a great target because you never defend yourself. You are very easy to target. I have criticized you up one end and down the other and it's wonderful. It's the most fulfilling thing in the world because you don't defend it. You don't fight it. You don't get angry. You just take it. And for people who don't like conflict such as myself, it's a beautiful thing. It's a win-win for people in the industry. They get to target you and get out their emotions. And you get stuff for your website and your book and makes you feel important. And in that puddle [porno], you are important."

Luke: "That's true. I had to go to the porn industry to find a place where I could be important."

Diana: "I would hope with your brilliance and writing skills that you would use it for good and not evil."

Luke: "Do you think l-keford.com is more a power for good or for evil?"

Diana: "It is an excuse. It is an excuse for you to have photographs of yourself and for you to have your name in print 467 million times. It is an excuse for you to have a forum where the whole world can speak about you. And every quote pertains to you in some way. I think it probably keeps you erect at the end of the day. You turn it on and there is all this stuff about you. You probably don't need the porno industry to ejaculate. You just look at your website."

After my talk with Diana, I hung out for the first time in Lori Michaels chat room at www.lorilive.com. The Vivid girl has some great pictures from CES.

Lori writes: Hey Luke, Did you know that I am on the cover of the first porn soundtrack to ever make the GRAMMY pre-noms. Anand Bhatt emailed a year or so ago and wanted to do the sound track for one of my movies. I put him in touch with Todd (Rens) and they did the sound track for my movie Conflict and also the main song in The Shooter. I thought that was a nice thing to do for me for free. I'm on the cover of the cd and I guess it got nominated for a grammy award.

Here's a link for Conflict: http://www.angelfire.com/biz2/sonicwaveamerica/conflict.html

Krysti Myst Cancells Gangbang

Extreme Associates contract girl Krysti Myst cancelled her gangbang "for personal reasons" midway through today's shoot with nine guys.

A source from the set: "Rob Black has a tendency to not warn anybody what he wants in a scene. All the spitting... He wanted some of us to piss on her. And he actually wanted her to lick our assholes when none of us, nor her, were told this. I think for that kind of thing guys should have to prepare in some way. And he just doesn't mention any of this s---.

"And I think she has some personal stuff going on. She had nothing against us personally, what we were doing. She got spit on. She got spit in her eye. We were playing a little rough with her as we were told to do. But it all triggered something where she couldn't work. She said it was some kind of personal thing. So we have it delayed now until the tenth of February. And we're not getting paid any extra. I wish that he would at least let people know in advance for this type of thing so that we could prepare and consent to it... It's bad enough the things he does...

"On Wednesday Rob directed an eight man gangbang of a black girl named Pebbles, a new Extreme contract girl."

Webmaster Tricks

Nick Adams writes on RAME: I can't imagine anyone spending money with people who trick you into visiting their site and then take over your desktop to keep you from leaving. My favorite example is the Hardcore Cafe. If you try www.johnniblack.com, blakemitchell.com, etc., you get their site. Try to go somewhere else and you get popups. Close your browser and it uses the active desktop to make their home page your wallpaper. You have to cntrl-alt-del to get the crap off your monitor. That kind of treatment always makes me want to give them my credit card number and beg them to f--- me harder.

It will once & for all eliminate all those annoying pop-ups, desktop hijacks, banners and pretty much ANY and ALL of those stupid manuevers & tricks these website assholes always pull. We have already garnered the commitments of Netscape, Opera & are working with MS to make it a native part of future browsers. It will put the USERS back in CONTROL. Starting next week it will be available as a 3rd party plugin for Netscape & IE. And as well, a hacker group out of San Francisco has developed an app that in effect STRIKES BACK at any webites which does such things, though it's use can be much more malicious than our application, it posseses the ability to bring down many a site or at least bring it to a slow crawl... God forbid users on anything faster than ISDN use it - or it's Pornsite BELLY UP !!!

Another heads up I have is related to the recent Credit Card extortion hacks going on like Visa & CD Univ. Well, be prepared to see an influx of these happening to the Porn Site industry, it's no secret they take credit cards online & are a billion dollar industry... Like these scumbags will care if consumer's cards are snarfed... My advice? NEVER USE YOUR CC FOR A PORNSITE ! IT's ONLY GONNA GET WORSE !

On another note, has anyone heard from Jim Gunn lately? My radar smells a story here, Ashley Heart ( The one named as having worked with Niki Lae is his girl) Jim has not been in PST in quite a while and Dirty Bob says his phone has been disconnected. Thats the part that "blips" my radar. Jim may well be back in Brazil or in Cali or wherever but the phone disconnected tied with the rest makes me wonder. Jim if yer out there ring in dude....Bruce Seven died so now you gotta chance at some AVN noms for girl girl stuff...hehehe Jim you know I love ya.
