Fishbein Sends Jenna On Vacation

Jenna Jameson tells PornNewsDaily.com: "[AVN publisher] Paul Fishbein is sending me on a vacation as a present for hosting the awards."

AVN Sues Extreme

Esad writes: Extreme Asssociates should be receiving a letter today imforming them about a lawsuit filed by AVN for failure to pay their advertising bills. This is the real reason that Extreme was pulled from the CES cover. Amazingly Fishbein has found a new lawyer to handle this one. Its not Paul Cambria, or East Coast Super Lawyer Stephen Levin, who Fishbein usually uses when he wants to crucify someone. Amazingly, Fishbein has spent more money on lawyers than the state of Rhode Island. Fishbein has employed lawyers to get his drivers license back, custody of his beloved dogs, rid himself of a pyschotic ex wife... HE IS f---ING ADDICTED TO LAWYERS!!! This new lawyer has been instructed to go for blood!

This lawsuit should be fun because Extreme is basically running from week to week and cannot really afford the cost to defend a cut and dry case of being deadbeats! I can imagine the sheriiffs sale with Fishbein taking custody of Rob Black's wrestling ring and his snake. Maybe Paul can get Gene's wig in a settlement? Maybe Rob's mommy and daddy will once again have to bail him out? This could be the beginning of the end for Extreme. If you can't afford to pay for advertising I wonder if your lawyer will give you credit? I am glad Gene got paid a years salary in advance? He must know Rob Black and the way he pays his bills? The fun is about to begin... For once i actually rooting for Paul Fishidiot, Esq.

Bridgette Kerkove

Jane writes: Dear Bridgette, Thank you for taking the time to respond to our posts. I hope you realize that I was not insulting you, I was merely pointing out that most people find your husbands involvement with your career reprehensible. I find nothing wrong with a "protective husband" but I think you are mistaken my dear, in what he is protecting. Your health? Your moral values? Let me share with our dear readers some quotes from your bio, as it appears in the archives of LF.com. Skeeter says: "She went to Our Lady of Lords Catholic school from preschool to 8th Grade with B averages. She went to Bellamine Jefferson High in Burbank, graduated. And did two years of college. No drugs, no molestations, very happy healthy family....And she still goes to church every Sunday if she's not working. And she is a good girl, for what it's worth being in the business." So let's see Bridgette, he takes you from a happy childhood, marries you and then the next thing you know you've got a fistful of chopsticks up your backside. Wow, I am sure that kind of protective husband is the one we all wish for as little girls, as young women.

You then say "In January '99 I got into this business for fun. I then realized that in this business I could cushion my families future wonderfully. I have a job that pays me to cum-yes life is good."

Your husband Skeeter tells it a bit differently, "I just started getting ideas from all the crazy sex we did at home... That we ought to make money on it. So I bring it up to her and she's from a very conservative family... She went to Catholic school her whole life. And then, after making some phone calls, we just got into it full speed ahead."

Honey, I have had crazy sex too and my lovers and I have discussed MANY things including making porn films but I have never caught them on the phone the next day lining one up for me. These are called "sexual fantasies" and they stay in the bedroom.

You say "No my husband doesn't pimp me out." Your husband says, "I love it. That's why I pushed so hard for it. She wasn't for it at first, but the longer we're together and the more we grow together as one, and our minds open up... She said 'ok, I'll give it a try.'" Skeeter admits, he pushed for it. Still not a pimp?

You say "I asked him to help handle business". Your husband says, "...everybody knows that I am not Bridgette's manager and I am not her agent. Bridgette manages herself. She has no manager agent and never will, by her choice." Something I am missing here?

You say, "I'm sorry, but when you're as busy as I am the last thing I want to do is look at a goddamn computer or talk on the phone. I thank him for his help and support. All of the directors I work for I am friends with. So to" pimp her out" is kind of a lame thing to say-but you just keep on going with your bad self."

You said in your bio, "He totally gets off on watching me do scenes. He loves it. He totally pals around with the guys that I'll be performing with... He absolutely loves this business. He thinks it is the most wonderful thing. I have to be thankful."

Bridgette, use your head, in what way is this not pimping you out? If you look up the word "pimp" in the dictionary I guarantee Skeeter's bearded little face will be beaming out back at you. Use your head girl!

I love it how Skeeter goes on all about your good religious upbringing and then says, "We've signed a non-exclusive contract with Jill Kelly Productions to do 12 Bridgett Kerkove features. And they're really nice movies. Bridgett plays the devil." So Bridgette, when you make it church on a Sunday, when you aren't working and you go to confession, do you tell your priest of your life, f---ing on film to pay the bills, playing the devil, etc. and ask for forgiveness?

Do you say, "Look buddy, I had 104 chopsticks up my ass last night, so I think I've already done my penance, so lay off it with the Hail Mary's, okay"?

Just like all LF.COM readers are curious about how Luke reconciles his religious beliefs with his chosen profession, we are curious about how you reconcile yours. What church do you go to by the way, Our Lady of the Chopsticks?

Finally, in your bio, Skeeter goes on a great length about your skills as a homemaker, ""Bridgett is just a great mom and a great wife. And definitely my best friend. She loves to cook. She's cooking all the time. She's always dusting and vacuuming and doing the laundry, then ironing it. Making sure that we're all getting enough to eat. And giving us our vitamins in the morning. Trimming our hair when it gets too long. And telling me when an outfit does not look good on me because I don't know better."

Wow, the Ward and June Cleaver of porn! Perfect! It's quite fitting as most of our readers will recall June's infamous remark, "Ward, don't you think you were a little hard on the Beav last night?"

One last word to you Bridgette, I am not putting YOU down. I don't like Skeeter's involvement. I think if you want to make porn then so be it. Not my career of choice. Personally I don't get it. Alot of women who have children would LOVE having their husband provide for them while they stay home and raise them, which you claim that Skeeter could do, that he was a successful business man before you started porn. Instead you want to "cushion your families future" with cash for the finer things that apparantly you claim not to buy anyway. When I see my friends in the rat race, working insane hours to make an extra buck to buy "things" for their families I remind them that I came from a home where their wasn't a lot of money due to divorce. I don't remember the toys or the houses or clothes I had, I remember what a good person my mother was and the things we did together. The time we spent. That is what is important. You should not embarrass your children and believe me, they WILL know of your career and that daddy asked you to do it.

Lynne Works With Doggies, Kitties

Lynne L-patin: just a premature Shabbat Shalom, treasure...I am going to work with the doggies and kitties, and to the doctor Monday...you cannot sell your soul, because I have it safe here, in my pocket, wrapped in cotton wool, and I feed it honey with an eye dropper every thirty minutes...
Lynne L-patin: How does Kira know about your hovel? A sty indeed....but a Kosher Pig? I think not!
Lynne L-patin: Beloved, you have been with me every step of the way as I try to start over again...I have had people ask me for years why I didn't leave porn and do something else. It isn't porn...it's anything! It's hard to leave one field of endeavor and start over again! You've seen what it has done to my life...and I am a strong, smart, gutsy, tough old bitch...enjoy the blessed stability you have for now, focus on healing yourself and, when the time comes and you are ready, you will pursue another career, as I am doing. Be honest always, with yourself, and you will be able to be honest with others. You like your work, goshdurnit, and not everyone can say that. Grow and blossom and be yourself....you are wonderful...I wouldn't have made it this far without your friendship

Where's The Outrage Over The Cambria List?

Mr Marcus writes: In light of the non-reaction from the companies, regarding the list. I would wonder out loud, why the silent treatment? the things on the list are they not worth a little confrontation, not to be challenged or questioned? for one no interracial WHY? for fear of prosecution. That would be the collective answer or the answer they've come up with. Then my question would be who would prosecute a company for catching interracial sex on film? we've filmed everything else. What would be the difference, isn't it still sex on film? Oh it's the color thing, well dam aint it 2001, yeah I know as a country were still very much divided. We actually still live in fear and from what I've garnered in the last couple of days, the almighty South has a problem with us...still. I would challenge them again and again, it's fear and misunderstanding that "they" can't accept interracial relationships let alone interracial sex. I believe that the last people who should perpetuate these false feelings, would be porn people or porn companies.

If anything we should set an example, I know I'm too liberal in my thinking, but this is the porn industry and if this aint liberal then we should have never gotten this far. Wasn't this industry built on doing things we weren't supposed to? I understand extreme, I've been there and I understand accurately there are something's that are, but whose to decide that? please not in the form of dated thinking from the South. Sexuality is about preference in this thinking you have a choice, pick your poison and drink it carefully. I don't think the big companies can set a standard for the industry to follow, especially the one proposed. If as a human I have faults, then as a company you can believe they have many. It is wrong to think excluding a sexual preference based on color of skin is going to divert attention. Just to please a small mass of people. It encourages them to become more in the dark, unaccepting and coldly withdrawn. No interracial sex? no, give me more. We can all stand to be a little Color Blind.

Rape The Bitch

Id writes on the ExtremeAssociates.com message board: Extreme and Rob Black have a duty, nay a moral obligation, as American pornographers to precipitate the censory feeding frenzy that prosecuters and politicians have been holding over porn's head for years. Do something so outrageous and beyond the pale that the powers that be shall be forced to do something and put the 1st Amendment to the test. Perhaps a series called 'Rape the Bitch!' or 'Watch Us Rape This Bitch and Serve It Up As Entertainment' in which a series of porn bunnies are sexually assaulted but in the tearful aftermath you are shown making a monetary offer to the victim not to press charges that is so huge that she can't refuse. Of course, you'll have to select the girls on the basis of their materialism being so rampant that it trumps any emotional trauma. Is this idea sick, disgusting, unconscionable? What are you a f---ing idiot?! Of course it is! But it's only a few degrees sicker than what the likes of Extreme and Anabolic have ventured into, and to be honest, this is the path you're on anyway. To really rub it in, it could be called 'Rape the Bitch: Volume #1'. With the diseased, disturbed underbelly of American culture barely exposed and visibly dripping pus more and more in these times we live in, such an atrocious and self destructive venture would probably bestow upon Black & company a twisted folk hero status.

Kira vs Luke

From this Danish website:

det er ikke nemt at begå sig i pornoindustrien. Og slet ikke for den danske stripper Kira, der blev ked af det, da en række af hendes private billeder dukkede op på et amerikansk website.

Luke F-rd er en gammel gris. Han lever af at følge med i pornoindustrien og får dagligt tilsendt stakkevis af billeder fra pornoverdenen. Han skriver om det på sit populære website l-keford.com hvor han lægger alt materialet ud. Efter en pornomesse i Las Vegas modtog Luke endnu en stak billeder. Deraf en række med danske Kira Eggers. Kira der i øvrigt er redaktør på Jubii Erotik var ikke begejstret. Lyt med her

Luke F-rd er en mand, der aldrig forsømmer muligheden for indhold til sit website. Da Rasmus fra Kronometer havde lavet interviewet med ham lagde han det uredigerede interview ud - det kan du høre her hvor du også kan nærlæse alle detaljerne om Kira-miseren.

It isn't easy being in the adult-industri. And especially not for the danish stripper Kira, who got upset, when a number of her private pictures ended up at an american website. Luke F-rd is an old pig. He lives by folowing the adultindustri and is daily send loads of pictures from the pornworld. He writes about it at his populare webstie l-keford.com, where he uploads all material. After a pornconvention in Las Vegas, Luke recieved a lot of pictures. One of which was of danish Kira Eggers. Kira, who by the way, is the editor of Jubii Erotics, was not pleased. Listen to this

Selwyn Harris, Martin Brimmer Return

Following the crash of E commerce, two of my favorite smut scribes have returned to porno. Selwyn Harris has published Agonizer.com including this interview with me. And Rodger Jacobs aka Martin Brimmer is back penning adult scripts.

Repent - You Sinners

Goddess writes: I found this comment that you made interesting, but I respectfully disagree. "You will find almost zero drug use and almost zero cases of pregnancy at the most religious Jewish and Christian schools." When I was in Catholic school, there were more girls pregnant at my school than in the public school. Why? All that idiotic "using birth control is a mortal sin" brainwashing from the Pope, who needs to keep his papal nose out of our bedrooms. In a mixed up/guilt ridden Catholic's brain, it's much better to have premarital sex--also a mortal sin--and get pregnant with a kid you don't want, than to use birth control. Go figure. P.S. BTW, Do you think it's safe for me to email Gene now? I mean, do ya think the Metamucil has had enough time to do its job?

Director Michael Raven writes: "Religious people do not use illegal drugs. You will find almost zero drug use and almost zero cases of pregnancy at the most religious Jewish and Christian schools. "

Luke, this has to be the most ignorant post you have ever made. Being raised in a pentecostal home, I attended private religious schools at different periods throughout my entire life. Never had I ever witnessed more drug use and sexual promiscuity than among the young people of the church. In fact, you could count on the children of the church leadership being the biggest "sinners" of them all.

Luke says: I am positive that the percentage of drug use and teen pregnancy is dramatically lower among kids who attend seriously religious Jewish and Christian schools. I am so sure of this, that I will stop going to synagogue if this is disproven. In fact, I will even give up this website. I am as sure that while 40% of Americans attend religious services regularly, a much smaller percentage of American murderers attended religious services regularly before they murdered.

How Do They Do That?

Chaim Amalek writes: How do orthodox jews keep the rate of (unmarried) teen pregnancy and out of wedlock births so low? Same way religious muslims do. Segregation of the genders (i.e., single sex classrooms), social pressure on girls to avoid getting pregnant, strenuous efforts at shielding the young from secular jewish influences, and early marriage.

This discussion reminds me of an exchange involving of former New York Mayor Ed Koch. Visiting a school for orthodox jewish girls in Brooklyn, he noted that the rate of pregnancy among these girls was very low. The principal noted that should any such school experience three or more such pregnancies in a year among its several hundreds of girls, it would be shut down. Koch accurately quipped that were the New York City public schools to adopt a similar hard-line approach, there would not be a single public school in operation in a month.

Alien@SinCityFilms.com writes: Hey Luke I am sorry to inform you but religeon is a disease. It kill's and alters the minds of even the greatest of logical thinkers. For my thoughts on god, well there is something out there but it certainly is not the way the religeous writers and mad men whom proclaim the unusual stories are true in religeous writings... All of there ramblings are pure insanity guised towards manipulation and the primary focus is in on creating false guilt on the readers. Religeons rise and fall just like the people whom created them, and I hope in time mankind will not be so easily duped into believing the insane scripture's of the various life destroying religeons. Philosophy is good, don't get me wrong, some people may need a little guidence in there life but the major religeons are not the way. If you should ever become Quasi godless like me you will experience true freedom, and yet still know that there is a god but the rules that you hear/read are an impossibility and that a supreme being that has created everything certainly never meant to destroy his own people, and set them to live with unreal expectations. If your ever able to see through the the false convictions, see beyond the need to be accepted, and understand that conformity is another form of enslavement, you will begin to feel sure of your life and have a better ability to succeed. Be logical and you will be free of torment.

Alien writes on Netpond: There is a girl friend of mine, she makes Simulated Snuff, Suicides, Sim Rape and some real other crazy s--- movies. I told her its pretty risky and she agree's, however it is what some people want to see and will pay to see. Where does it become obscene when it's in demand and "harmless" we both say and agree. The kinda stuff she creates is no more violent than Texas Chainsaw, or a Jason Movie, its just with an erotic twist, instead of a head lopped off it's dick sorta stuff. Who knows but it still fall's into the category I loosely label "RISKY". That's how broad the hysteria is we are dealing with these days. No one knows where the Ashcroftinator is going hit.

Houston - We Have Shock Value

Kevin Blatt from the SexToyNetwork.com writes: Regarding the comments made by Andy Edmond. Houston is a wonderful person and I am glad to call her a friend. My fight [with Andy] is over I got what I wanted, I wanted Andy out of this business and to not be "our" leader. He got what he wanted to, now I am done fighting with him One question Luke, If Houston is so ugly, then how come her gangbang tape sold so many copies? How come I couldn't eat dinner with her without so many fans interrupting us for autographs? Just my 2 cents..... I am going back to selling sex toys and making webmasters lots of money.

A porn star replies: "The answer is simple - SHOCK VALUE. The same reason that people buy the "faces of death " or "real crashes" or extreme associates "assclowns." These things repulse us yet we cant help but watch like i said it all comes down to shock value no one thought one girl hated herself so much she would do so much that she would actually do something like that but she did and we had to watch."

A Few Simple Questions

Sean writes: Luke, I’ve been reading your site for quite sometime now. Like you, I have a sort of fascination with the sex industry without really participating in it. I’ve never been to a prostitute and very seldom watch porn yet the whole environment is amazing. I think it might have something to do with the fact that porners go by their own rules. They have completely disregarding the norms and morays that have been beaten into everyone else and formed their own mixed up down-is-up-cats-and-dogs-living-together type of culture. For a while, it works for them. My question is how/why do you intertwine your whole life around a group that live a lifestyle that is the polar opposite of what your striving for each day? Hell, you can’t be doing it for the money. You’re not doing it out of the goodness of your heart. Do you expect to change anything for these people? Do you feel your doing something positive by shining a light on a group that has lived in darkness until the last couple of years?

Luke replies: Some of the reasons are rooted in my childhood and my twisted psyche. I do feel that I am shining a light on a world of darkness and that that does more good than harm. Interwining my life around a group that lives the polar opposite of values is tricky. I've found that it works best if I simply work from home and don't socialize much with this highly destructive industry. Still, it is impossible to fully compartmentalize. It's impossible for me to not get spattered with the mud.

One pragmantic answer to your question is that I would rather do this than the other jobs that are immediately available to me.

Buddy Love's 12 Ways To Find Quality Service In Tampa Bay Area

Buddy Love writes on BigDoggie.net: Yet another recent article in the St. Pete Times about the crackdown at http://pqasb.pqarchiver.com/sptimes/index.html.

For your own protection avoid police stings and the many rip off providers who will be arriving in Tampa to make a few quick easy bucks.

* Buddy Love's 12 Ways to find quality service in Tampa Bay area

(1) Do not respond to come-ons from escorts who are "in town" for the Super Bowl UNLESS you can verify that they are reputable. They may be Tampa vice police women working on a sting operation.

(2) Avoid "new" providers. Many rip off artists come to town for a few weeks around Super Bowl, rip off tourists, then depart. This is NOT to say all new providers coming to town are rip offs. But the chances of getting ripped off by an unknown quantity is especially high right now.

(3) Look for providers with a long and well documented set of reviews posted on this Board who have been in business for a substantial time.

(4) Unless a provider is well documented on this Board (e.g. Sonya, Vicki, Hot Terri, Mariah Jane, Extrodinary, Celtic Lass, Lynn's Elite and others - sorry space limits this list) do NOT try her services. With scam artists in town and possible police sting operations underway, why take a substantial risk of arrest or a rip off artist?

(5) In the strip clubs, use common sense and be discreet. Reporters and other news media will be there looking for players. If there is a police raid, there is a good chance that you may become a TV star.

(6) Tampa has some of the most unpredictable weather. Respect yourself and your provider by always wearing a raincoat. Unfortunately, Florida is one of the top 3 states in female sexually transmitted diseases. Don't bring back or pass on an unwanted "super bowl souvenier"

(7) Don't cruise the streets. Most good looking street hookers end up being male TV's. The risk of arrest/loss of drivers license is high. Disease/drugs/pimps-with-guns are everywhere. Play safe, stay indoors.

(8) As a general rule St. Pete, Clearwater and Sarasota dance clubs and lingerie shops are all tease, no please as the laws are much, much stricter than Tampa. Go to Tampa clubs and lingerie modeling shops for better service. In Tampa, some lingerie shops and clubs (do your homework and scroll this board - don't be lazy and ask someone to do your homeowrk for you) provide full service. In St. Pete, Clearwater or Sarasota, they do not.

(9) If you decide to use an escort or escort service, stick with ones that consistently get good reviews on this Board - Lynn's Elite, Vicki4rent, Celtic Lass, Extrodrinary, HarleyofTampa. Avoid unknown ones. There are lots of "cash and dash" operations. Some are documented on the rip offs board. Most are not.

(10) Asian Massage Parlors in the Tampa Bay area are a waste. There are a few exceptions (search the site for "Connie") but otherwise they are expensive and you will leave disappointed.

(11) If you end up ignoring all advice (thinking with your little head) and decide to try a provider who is NOT well documented on this or other Boards, please expect to be arrested or ripped off. Maybe you will be pleasantly surprised. Maybe you will just lose $300 to a "cash and dash" escort with a big body guard. You won't get much sympathy from local law enforcement by reporting you were ripped off while trying to pay for sex. You will get arrested. Think about it.

(12) Research the Tampa Board. Anyone that reviewers Jackson, Bart, Drew Park, IM Playful, Gatortail or Buddy Love reviews would be a great choice for a satisfying evening (though beware of Street Beat reviews - as they were written a while ago and the streets are no longer safe).

Porn Princess Not Running Illegal Web Business From Home

By Marc Caputo

WEST PALM BEACH -- The self-styled "Italian Princess of Porn" is not operating an illegal Web-based business from her home, city code officers have decided.

At one time, the Web site maintained by actress "Bianca Trump" had offered customers a glimpse of live sex acts from her Northwood Hills house or the chance to book a $1,000-an-hour date. The Palm Beach Post is withholding her legal name.

Were she really operating the live-sex business directly from her home, Trump would have had to apply for an occupational license. City law forbids people from operating escort services from home, officials said.

"She said her business is conducted elsewhere and we believe her," Bill Staples, the city's supervisor of permits and licensing, said Thursday.

Staples said code officers never went inside her home to see if there were cameras for Webcasts. He said Trump spoke to a code officer by telephone.

Trump is well-known in her community for her efforts patrolling the gentrifying neighborhood for code violations. Until a recent complaint lodged by an anonymous resident against her, Trump was known in her area for her good works, not for her 220 adult movies. Read On

Porn To Serve Her Community

By Frank Cerebaino

A porn star dedicated to neighborhood improvement. I'd trade a couple of speed humps for a zealous porn star on the block.

You don't find many home-improvement-minded porn stars. It's true, their movies frequently feature landscapers. But the yard work is invariably interrupted before much gets done.

Being a movie star in this genre isn't the kind of job one would associate with a passion for set-back requirements, median plantings, and building code savvy.

So it's no wonder that Bianca Trump's Northwood Hills neighbors think she's a terrific asset to the neighborhood. Naysayers might point out that she's just fixing up her place to make it better suited to tape the live sex acts that had been advertised on her Web site.

But isn't that what they say about everybody who does work on their house? Read On

Dr Conrad Needs A Proctologist To Get The Cork Out Of His Butt

Dr Conrad writes: Hi Luke, I can't resist replying. I would like to tell Farrell that yes, "we are barraged by an endless litany of AIDS horrors". Yes, "virtually all doctors and public health officials profess their unswerving allegiance to the hypothesis that AIDS is contagious and sexually transmitted". The reason for this is because it is true. No amount of wishful thinking will change that reality. Rasnick uses half truths and flawed statistics to argue against current AIDS treatment and knowledge. His book is not take seriously by the medical and scientific world. In fact he is doing great harm by encouraging people to ignore the simple fact of AIDS prevention, just avoid the HIV virus.

Farrell Timlake from HomegrownVideo.com replies: I issued an open challenge to this supposed Dr. Conrad when he countered me last time, so now I issue yet another challenge. Dr. Conrad, you never did establish your credentials, so now I seriously doubt that you possess any. However, in the event that you do, I will gladly challenge you to a open debate on any field on which you will stand and do justice to this topic. You bring your facts and figures and experts on the subject and I will bring mine and we can let whoever witnesses the spectacle cast their own judgment. Take your time preparing your argument. Draw as deeply as you desire from the pockets of the drug companies that perpetuate this and other health myths in an effort to push drugs. Give it your best shot. You say Resnick is discredited, but why? He holds patents on the very same drugs that are being administered to so-called AIDS infected patients. You would think his opinion would hold some merit at the very least. Why don't you indulge me in something more substantial than name called and the casting of aspersions with innuendo and rhetoric. Why don't you show me what a real medical professional and scientist you really are. I am waiting, but pretty sure you are not up to the task since you disappeared the last time I demanded satisfaction from your insultingly anti-intellectual rebuttal. Why don't you prove yourself to me so I will shut up and leave you and everyone else alone on this issue. I am just a laymen, surely that should be easy for you in all your education and access to facts be easy for you? Then please check out www.homegrownvideo.com and tell me why all those swingers and sexual adventurers that make are videos are so healthy and happy with their sex lives. Good day sir, I hope you will accept my challenge.

Skeeter Kerkove Says - 'God Bless You All'

Skeeter Kerkove writes: For what it is worth, Bridgette did NOT, go to the Harline clinic and get operated on. She has NO scars, very good clevage, they do not sit to high or to low. The Doctors name is Dr. Sonntag. So these other people are writing in about something they know nothing about. Period. It is mind blowing to me how famous Bridgette has gotten in 24 months, there are even untrue rumors about who operated on her boobs. That is fame. Keep on feeding the fire, it will only bring her more money and fame. God Bless You All.

Bridgett Kerkove Writes:

Dear Brian Kushner,Jane and Gilles,

This is Bridgette Kerkove writing you. I am fortunate to have a protective loving husband. He is a very happy bubbly person and all of the people I interact with in the business LOVE him. He is never jealous and we are best friends. The only thing that does piss him off is people putting me down. Iam sure some men could relate.

In 1983 Skeeter opened his own pool and spa business(which is fully operational as I speak-and practically runs itself). With a Contractors liscence several years of pool experience and one assistant he started out to create a very flouishing business. When we met in '92 he had just bought 4 commercial building to lease out and (now our)successful pool business. He had already purchased 2 homes-check out income taxes.

So anyways...He is a very bright business man-and yes I am able to articulate a thought! Thank you. I didn't just get married at a whim-I chose a successful man. Grantit not millions but we lived a very happy middleclass lifestyle.

In January '99 I got into this business for fun. I then realized that in this business I could cushion my families future wonderfully. I have a job that pays me to cum-yes life is good.

No my husband doesn't pimp me out. I asked him to help handle business . I'm sorry, but when you're as busy as I am the last thing I want to do is look at a goddamn computer or talk on the phone. I thank him for his help and support. All of the directors I work for I am friends with. So to" pimp her out" is kind of a lame thing to say-but you just keep on going with your bad self.

Thank you so much to those of you who wrote in, in support of me-that melted my heart-thank you!!!! My fans are the greatest-again this is the greatest job. First I had to read mean comments tonight, and its always the fans not the critics that bring a smile to my face. xoxoxo Bridgette Kerkove

Jane writes: hey Luke, just read ms. kerkove's post, pretty funny. Someone told me that there was some place she did and interview or such where she described how she did the thing with the chopsticks. do you know where that would be?

Rob Black's Extreme Associates

ZebraGrrl writes: As I stated before and you can see for yourself, the death of the Extreme Associates message board has come. There have been only a couple of posts in several days. Even then, about half the posts were deleted. I decided to contact the pitiful webmaster and he replied with the following:

"We've changed our policy on the message board to have a discussion only on the movies and on the adult film industry in general. It was too difficult to follow so many messages with so many different topics. In order to receive a password, you must not engage in criticizing Extreme Associates or the website or any unsubstantiated rumors about Extreme Associates. Those problems should be directed towards myself and I will let the appropriate people know. If you agree, reply to this message with the subject "I agree" and I will send you the password."

Luke, you know what a bunch of chickens--- fools run Extreme? They act all hard and tough, but it's pretty clear they are a bunch of sissy bitches who can't handle anybody criticizing them. Rob Black talks tough about "I WILL NEVER PLEA BARGAIN", but you know that whining little bitch would be the first to take a deal because he's all talk just to keep a tough-ass image alive. Inside, he's nothing but a bitch hiding behind a bunch of loser goons he found at the nearby 7-11. Their website is easily the biggest joke run by a bunch of complete morons. Their main page is almost 3MBs in length with all the picture files and text. Their pay site is not even on a password protected server (http://www.extremeassociates.com/Club_Extreme_Index.htm) and is probably the biggest ripoff you can imagine.

You should ask Rob Black why he's running scared, censoring the message board, and f---ing ripping off loyal paying customers with that f---ing joke of a web site. If he can't handle it, then ask him to shut the f--- up. He whines about AVN lying to him. He whines about supposed pussies in the adult world ready to cave. Meanwhile, his web site posts AVN nominations (a company he supposedly boycotted) and he's so f---ing scared of any criticism, he censors the message boards. What a two-faced bitch! Maybe he should grow some balls and stop smoking crack. Rob Black is a whining chickens--- scam-artist bitch. Nothing more. Nothing less. His dumb ass is going to run Extreme into the ground. Not John Ashcroft.

Drug Use By Porn Stars

Thomas writes Luke: Do you think that the drug problem among the porn stars of the 80's are the same as the porn stars in the present or is it worse now than before. I'm thinking maybe that the movies now are more nasty because maybe the woman are not on drugs, they seem to have more sexual energy then they did in the 80's..?Or maybe the drugs are different and better.

Luke replies: Drug uses in porn ebbs and flows with the trends of the general secular community. Religious people do not use illegal drugs. You will find almost zero drug use and almost zero cases of pregnancy at the most religious Jewish and Christian schools. Drug use in porn soared in the late 1970s and early 1980s, then dipped until Clinton rose to power. Drug use and porn use percentages in the population roughly parallel each other in their rises and falls.

Luke Gets Mail

LT writes: On the Brandy/Bianca thing. Brandy, unfortunately with the way the "media" operates now, you probably are creating *more* interest in these stories. These s---heads love it and eat it up, and the quality of their research and effort is plain to see. The more you contact them, the more it intrigues them. It's a no win. Most TV newscasts now are nothing more than plugs and ads within the news along with whatever gratuitous sex and violence they can find. Many "stories" are nothing more than videotaped press releases and not a word is changed. Luke, your comments a while back about TV news were very good, but not strong enough. We need to go back to 1980 regulations so news can be held accountable. Did anyone notice that just before the election, lawyers representing "media" (no specifics as usual) had the Supreme Court overturn the FCC Fairness Doctrine? Not only does this apply to political candidates, but you, I and every other citizen as well. Basically, they have unli! mi! ted power now. To top it all off, coming soon is a ruling on commercial speech having the same freedom. I better quit now, I'm sounding like Mike South (Hey, Mike!). Brandy, if you want to make a change, hire an attorney and go after the blatant errors they've made. That's the only way they ever make a "clarification" (make sure they call it what it is - a correction/retraction). It goes beyond protected "editorial content". That's the only way they'll ever change.

On the Rog/Skeeter Kerkove thing: Rog and I have had major differences, ironically over this same issue, and issues that haven't been resolved. But the comments from Skeeter and Amber are off the mark. First, Skeeter, Bridgette's boob job is HORRIBLE!. You bragged about how great a deal you got, and how the "doc" threw in a nose job as well. Well, congratulations. Going to a quack in Utah who surrendered his license voluntarily rather than have the courts bring up info he didn't want public is hardly anything to brag about. Oh, but it wasn't *him*. No, but what caliber ethics is that guy going to attract? Within a couple of weeks after Bridgette got butchered in the Beehive State, the old goon surrendered his license and, the "clinic" website went down. It's also interesting that Bridgette herself said she "wasn't going that big, maybe to a C". So, whose idea was it?

Amber, Rog reviews movies from a great period of time, not just new releases, so it does apply. He might go back and review a mid-80's or early 90's video or a video from 3 years ago as well as new releases. And even though he lists the year of release, a lot of folks either don't pay attention to that, or haven't paid attention to when a particular actress got implants (made even more complicated when some release pre and post tapes in the same calendar year...and that's not even mentioning comps!). Basically, he's saving himself a lot of time by stating this, because I can guarantee you he'd get e-mails asking "Is this before or after Rog?" And in cases as horrific as Bridgette's, it's totally justified to comment. AVN *used* to do that and Rog's comment was hardly a slam. Rog aims his reviews at *everyone*, not just hardcore fans of a particular starlet. Yeah, the avid Bridgette Kerkove followers will know, but what about folks that either aren't big fans or don't like h! er! at all? And we should all know by now that implants are hardly a *permanent* part of Ms. Kerkove, or anyone else's bodies (lord only knows how many times Bridgette's will be replaced, especially considering the doctor). They don't *have* to be there. So the comparison to Racquel Darrian and Derek Lane doesn't apply for those reasons.

AVN writer Ashley "the fearless" Kennedy writes Luke and Gene Ross: Gentlemen, I have passed along your contact information to Joe Gardiner, the senior editor of Bizarre Magazine (UK). I have informed them about what's going on, and they will be doing a piece on the Whitebread memo and the changes that are sweeping through the Industry in response to the new administration. They'll likely be calling or e-mailing you next week. They also have contact info for Lex, Mr. Marcus, Vivid, Legend, Elegant Angel, the FSC, and Hustler. If you can think of anyone else, please let them know. I told Joe that you, Luke, were an extremely helpful and informative, yet maligned archivist of the adult industry who has had more libel suits than I've had underwear, and Gene, that you, Rob and Tommy are colorful, outspoken and extremely vocal in your opposition to everything that the whitebread memo represents. I hope you don't mind. The magazine has more readers than all of our websites, AVN and AVN Online put together, and they're really cool folks. I! adore them, truly. If you'd like to reach Joe before he reaches you, his e-mail is joe.gardiner@johnbrown.co.uk Take care, ya'll....peace.

Daniel writes: Luke, First off, I love your site,I find it very informative. I do have a question to ask. I heard some depressing news at the AVN convention earlier this month. I was chatting with Jill Kelly and she informed me that Sylvia Saint has retired from the business. Jill went on to say that she might do a little girl/girl work with Jill Kelly Productions in the future, but thats about it. This really disappointed me to say the least; considering she is one of my favorite stars. The main reason I like her so much is the fact that she is one of the few female stars that have the BALLS to actively do Interracial scenes! Of course the Interracial topic seems to be a sensitive one at the present time, of course I'm a fan of the whole Interracial sex Taboo, but its sad that so many women in the business will not work with the black actors. I had the chance to meet a few of them at the convention and even talk for awhile with Lex, Mr. Marcus, and Jack Napier; they all were great guys. The thing that really pisses me off is that some of my favorite female actresses like Devon Cassidey, Jessica Drake, and Jill Kelly have not ventured into Interracial sex...as of yet(fingers crossed). In no way do I blame the girls, I feel that it is primarily the companies they work for that are pressuring them. I mean the whole industry seems to be racist, at least the more well established companies. I myself am a 26 year old white male who loves to see beautiful white women having sex with black males.....and I'm not afraid to admit it!!! If you have any info on the Sylvia Saint subject I would appreciate any news you would be able to give me.

QuasarmanRants.com

Sean from San Diego writes QuasarmanRants.com: I just want to say that I enjoy your column immensely. I read you, Luke, and Tod everyday on my lunch break and you are, by far, the most clever and the most entertaining of the bunch. But, I guess this comes as little surprise...Tod is still relatively new and working out an online identity and Luke is...well, let's just say Luke is a chapter in a psych textbook waiting to happen (how many alter egos can one man possibly have?)

Quasarman replies: For the record, Tod's IQ is bordering on 4 digits while mine narrowly surpasses 3 but I appreciate your kind words. As for Mr.Ford, he's the journalistic equivalent of a giddy sibling who just tattled on his little brother. Lithium can only accomplish so much in the treatment of psychiatric illness. A patient must also want to get well. My guess is that Luke was the only child of indifferent parents and has continued talking to his imaginary friends to this day. This would explain why he lives alone but has 6 people on his lease.

Women's Erotic Wrestling

From AVN.com: A group of organizers have broken away from ECW to form a new adult entertainment wrestling league, Women's Exotic Wrestling, which is aiming to present at least 104 live performances a year on Friday and Saturday nights beginning in February.

The WEW is looking for more adult film and video actresses "with a good track record, who are looking to expand their careers and are interested in being part of the WEW," Bone says. Those who do wish to be involved should contact Joe Spallone, (818) 766-0400.

Luke interviewed Joe Spallone about the WEW. Listen here.

Sunset Thomas Interview

I talked to Sunset Thomas by phone Wednesday evening.

Sunset: "Yeah [she's in Florida] but I'm getting the jiggers to head back home. Get out of all this ruckus, it is just my style... I want to get away from the headaches going on here. I'm more the quiet one. I love Bianca [Trump] to death. She's more the wild child.

"On the pregnant thing, to each their own. I know there's a series out there called 'Ready To Drop.' And that's a big series. I don't think it is bad what I am doing. I was the first to start pretty much anything. I was the first to start the brothel [the first big porn star to work at Dennis Hof's Bunny Ranch]. I was the first porn star to advertise that. I'm always the first to do anything weird.

"And it's not going to hurt the baby. You can have sex when you're pregnant. I did pregnant videos when I was pregnant with little Zach.

"I provide fantasies to those who want it. I'm not trying to harm anyone. I'm just a girl who likes to have fun.

"Zach and I have been divorced for six months. Though we're best friends, which is great for little Zachary. That isn't how it was with his first wife. They constantly fought. That wasn't good for the kids to see that."

Luke: "When are you going back to the Bunny Ranch?"

Sunset: "I'm not...

"I'm friends with everybody. I'm friends with my worst enemy. To each their own. I'm not knocking nobody. That's why I like to keep to myself. You're awful quiet."

Luke: "I'm just a quiet guy."

Sunset: "Hang on a sec, I think it is another reporter coming to the house."
