James DiGiorgio, dominatrix call Luke

Return Of Porn Star Cindy Plenum

Hi Luke, it's me - Cindy Plenum! You and I have not spoken much of late and I want to set that straight! And I want to let you know that the interview I gave the French last year was published, both in English and French. Check it out! http://www.laspirale.org/interviews/

Forget Madonna, Cameron Diaz and all those stupid anorexic models… Here is the ULTIMATE POP ICON of the Year 2000 ! Porn actress, strip-tease artist, body modification enthusiast, cult member and a convinced zoophile, Cindy Plenum is the perfect incarnation of this new millenary Pop cultures. No more, no less… A new star is born !

Why do you consider yourself to be the first true porn star of the new millennium on the web ?

Cindy: Boy, that's an easy one. I thought you were going to quiz me on Camus, or one of those post-war French intellectuals that no one reads anymore. I am the first true Internet porn star because, at the moment, my entire existence is defined by the net. I truly have no reality apart from that which is given to me by the Internet. In a very real sense, if there were no Internet, I would long since have faded into obscurity.

What are you currently involved in professionally ? Are you still making movies or are you focussing right now on your striptease tours... ?

I no longer striptease! That entire scene is too rife with drugs and low-lifes. And don't get me started talking about all the losers who come in to spend their money. What a pitiful lot! And do you know what about 80% of those guys are really looking for? A WIFE - specifically, the sort of wife they could never even fantasize about getting in real life. A very sad, morally corrosive scene, which is reason enough to avoid it.

Luke F-rd's site reveals that you have an IQ of 170. Asia Carrera, another porn star, boasts membership of Mensa, (society for those endowed with extremely high IQS). This heightened sense of competition amongst porn movie stars to outstrip/outmatch one another in terms of their IQ is certainly an interesting phenomena ? Have intelligence quotients replaced the more traditional criteria, such as rival breast measurements or the ever increasing number of male participants in a gangbang, as a means of promoting sales ?

That is a very good question. When I go to meetings of the Omega Society, or the Society for Philosophical Inquiry (high-IQ organizations that are far more selective than Mensa), all anyone ever wants to talk about is my history in porn. And when I am with porn actresses, everyone wants to discuss the ideas of Chomsy, or string theory. I know that I have been wandering a bit here, so to directly address your question, I think that, at root, men are more attracted to woman with a keen mind than they are to women who have football-sized polymeric breasts, or who have submitted to multi-hundred gangbangs. Just consider all the obits that appeared after Heady Lamar's death - every one mentioned her role in the development of cellular communications. None spoke of her breast size or made mention of any participation in a gangbang.

Your biography could be seen as a model inventory of Californian sub-cultural experimentation. Psychedelic drugs, zoophily, prison, body modifications... How do you regard this period of your life in retrospect ?

I know you expect a flip answer, but I am afraid that I must disappoint you here. I regard large parts of this period with shame.

Tell us something about the Church of Faith and it's guru, Bartholomew Lionheart... I have read that his followers regularly prostitute themselves in order to attract new recruits... What did you find so appealing about this cult ?

The cult no longer exists, at least not above ground. Many of its members went on to other cults. Some died at Waco. Others perished when comet Hale-Bopp approached the earth. I suppose what really attracted me to the cult was the personality of Bart - and his semitic good looks.

You were actively involved in the Underground Porn Movement, a group of anarcho-syndicalistic pornographers advocating cinematic values of a similar inclination to those currently extolled by Lars Von Trier and the Danish filmmakers who make up Dogma - in brief: no articial light, no second takes during filming, and no professional actors. What impelled/prompted you to take part in this movement ?

But I did not know that I was in any sort of movement when I started out! It was just a bunch of bright people who had new ideas for the way things could be done. And to be blunt about it, these ideas were born more out of economic necessity than any aesthetic.

Read On

Bob Jones writes: A few comments on Cindy Plenum. She says she was born in 1974, went to college at 16, then after her junior year joined a cult, then got into porn. She also says she was making movies in the 80s (Annie X), and involved in the "body modification" movement of the early 90s. Do that math.

Luke says: Cindy's the unsung Traci Lords.

Bob replies: Or she's lying.

Sergio writes: I refuse to make fun of Cindy Plenum. I don't think it's polite to make fun at somebody's expanse...

Luke invited Cindy Plenum on his radio show.

Cindy writes: Luke, is this show video or just audio? I saw that other letter regarding my age. Sorry, but that is the ONE (and only - I promise!) thing I do not want to discuss. What sort of show do you have? Is it about the trade, or do you talk about other things as well?

Parts Of Gay Left Feel Incest Is Ok

Republican Jewish Girl says: Check out the discussion on Datalounge.com, a discussion board for homosexuals. Many of them think that incest is ok. That's disgusting. I sent this thread to TVC (Traditional Values Coalition) and Michael Savage, the San Francisco talkshow host. I hope that people will look at this and see there's a reason why homosexuals should not be allowed to be leaders in the Boy Scouts.

These homos are saying, well, if it feels good, do it. And the incest taboo just comes from Christianity. I'm apalled and I knew you would be too. You probably just want to cut and paste the really disgusting responses. I knew that you'd be willing to do something about it.

Luke says: You're right. I'm not afraid to tackle the homosexuals.

RJG says: The Jews aren't afraid. Lou Sheldon used to be Jewish. David Horowitz is not afraid. Mike Savage is not afraid.

Patty writes on DataLounge.com: Could it be that two hunky brothers, who have played brothers on the small screen (until fate intervened), are spending an increasing amount of time together in real life? Although they are only a year apart in age, they are virtually inseparable around Hollywood, and, in fact, they just moved in together. You can check them out at the gym or at parties together, where they often have their arms around each other’s waist or shoulders. Says one source, “If you didn’t know they were brothers, you’d swear there was more going on. Almost like you’d expect one of them to just slide it right on in.”

Anonymous writes: It IS the O'Connell bros [Jerry and Charlie, from the TV show Sliders]. They are 14 months apart. This story broke in '98 by a reporter who visited them at their apt. and was icked out by their "closeness". The story was promptly dismissed and I didn't think it would see the light of day again. I'm glad it's getting more circulated now. What is with these freaky siblings in Hollyweird? Did Angelina [Jolie] and her bro start this trend or what?? Don't forget the inseparable Wayans brothers, the worst offender being Marlon. Shawn can't do an interview w/o Marlon running out to kiss him passionately (hitting the cheek but aiming for the lips) and these two live together, too! It's not like they haven't seen each other in years. The O'Connells are the same way. I say, you can love your siblings, just don't looooooooooooooooove your siblings.

Deacon Blue writes: wow, how scandalous!!!! the O´Connels act in public like lovers ? they should be burned on a stake for such a scandalous behaviour. What`s your problems guys ? My brother lives far away from me. When we meet we`re acting like nelly sisters who welcome each other with embraces and cheek-kisses and the rest of the time we`re inseperable. He is straight and has no problem with me being gay. Jerry O`Connel seem to be a pretty funny guy. Saw him some time ago when he hosted the Tonight show and his brother looks georgeous. If they both like to have sex with each other, why not ? at least it is GREAT GOSSIP I can giggle about (but I am defnetly not grossed out or shocked). The Brewer twins did a very homoerotic photoshooting playing with each other and I don`t feel sick about it.

Charlie writes: I agree. Why should anyone have a problem with two brothers having a great sexual relationship? One of these days, we'll be hearing the same thing about the Lawrence brothers. I like the photo of the O'Connells where one has a towel around his waist and the other has on a white terry robe. Now, if we could only convince Catelina to star them in a video. LOL

Anonymous replies: "What`s your problems guys?" Oh, I don't know, it could be the fact that two people with the same bloodline are SCREWING EACH OTHER!!! Not everyone has morals like an alley cat or wants to do freaky things w/ relatives that you seem to think are so cool, ya nasty bitch! Well, apparently, folks in Hollywood like this sort of thing...

Lynne L-patin: In Latin American countries and in India, sisters and women who are close friends routinely walk down the streets with their arms around each other or holding hands. It does not mean they are lesbians. It does not have anything to do with sex. When my husband was dying, his brothers and his father came to him, one by one, and embraced him, and they cried in one another's arms. It's really sad that, in this culture, any expression of physical affection is instantly read as sexual, and that family members would be discouraged from sharing housing together because it means they're having sex. We live in a society which is so desperate for physical contact, where it's better to hire a stranger as a massage therapist than to get a hug from one's woman friend?

Sex.com's New Management Team

Sex.com did not end up in the hands of any of the big boys - Not Yishai Habari or IGalley or Cyber Entertainment or Cybererotica. Instead, sex.com owner Gary Kremen chose a management team of Daron Babin (SEGuru), Brian Jones and Greg Geelan (aka Otto...one of the owners of YNOT).

Kremen demanded too much hands on control to make a deal with CE's Ron Levi, even though Levi helped fund Kremen's lawsuit to regain the domain name from thief Stephen Michael Cohen.

SEGuru has a work history as an editor for a TV show. Geelan is an attorney.

YNOT held a big party Friday night where K-Man (small webmaster Keith Gatehouse) got in content provider Jeff Miller's face.

Surf Monkey writes: Hi Luke...I was at that ynot party on Friday night and there were two "altercations". One was between some guy and a woman. I think the woman was Otto's wife. The guy was a total dickwad. I think that the woman spilled some water on his shirt and he got all in the womans face. He was at least twice the size of the woman and he just kept going after her. It was very sad. She kept apologizing and he just wouldn't stop getting in her face. It went on for at least 5 minutes until finally someone went and got Otto and he took the woman away. That one happened right after the kman trying to get into Jeff Miller's face. This one was hysterical. This kboy guy slammed into Miller's back and then tried to pick a fight by telling Miller to watch where he was walking. Miller turned his back on kboy and called him an insignificant pissant that wasnt worth his time. Then kboy tried to inflame the situation by telling another guy that Miller said Italians are gay (which never happened). It is obvious that Miller is head and shoulders above kboy in business acumen and professionalism. kboy started sounding like he thought he was Puff Daddy or Snoop Dog. It is hysterical when these wannabe white boys start talking like they are from South Central! It makes them sound like total idiots.

We left the party about midnight and the place outside was a dump. Broken bottles, the lobby ash try turned over on the floor. Very embarrasing. I hope that ynot bans people like the guy in the womans face and kboy from future events. If I wanted to spend the night with a bunch of drunk assholes who don't know how to behave I'll hang out with my buddies from high school. I really thought the ynot party was going to be a lot different. Most of the people were totally cool and I learned a lot from talking with them. But add a couple of assholes like kboy and the water boy and it f---s things up for everyone.

Jolted By The Annabel Chong Story

Like porn star Annabel Chong, I grew up in a middle class Christian family in the Southern Hemisphere.

Born and raised in Singapore, Annabel aka Grace Quek attended elite parochial schools in England, including Cambridge University (where post-Modernism and Women's Studies dominate). I attended Christian schools (mainly Seventh Day Adventist ones) through ninth grade. My formal education stopped short of an undergraduate degree at UCLA.

Like Annabel, I'm attracted to porn for its notoriety, opportunity to break bourgeouis morals and as an intellectual exercise.

While Chong mouths feminist empowerment jargon without understanding its import, I spout slick psychological jargon to cover my disorders.

Like Chong, I'm usually an articulate and self aware interview.

Like Chong, I've been the focus of documentaries and much media attention.

In the January 2001 issue of Richard Freeman's Batteries Not Included newsletter (BNI@aol.com), Dmetri Kakmi writes an intelligent essay on the Gough Lewis directed documentary "Sex: The Annabel Chong Story." I've not seen the documentary but I've read about it frequently.

Kakmi writes: "One saddening aspect of this documentary is that, like the movie Boogie Nights, it perpetuates the idea that hte porn industry is populated by emotional retards and numb skulls who can't string a sentence together, let alone justify their work to the world."

Luke says: Porn is populated by emotional retards and numb skulls but there are numerous articulate exceptions like James DiGiorgio, Paul Fishbein, and Juli Ashton.

I've found that most insular groups are largely populated by people who can't justify their rituals and work to the world. Most Orthodox Jews, for instance, can't justify their behavior and beliefs to the world. Christians, I think, are better at this than most Jews, as proselytizing is of greater importance to Christians. They are educated on how to articulate their religion to the world so they can make converts. Judaism does not reach out for converts. And most religious Jews are content to live their religion without any thought of explaining it to the world.

Kakmi praises the Lewis documentary for bringing sleaze back to porn.

In the face of attacks, the industry in the 1980s and early 1990s tried to clean up its image. Those forces in porn that seek to mainstream its image include Adult Video News, the Free Speech Coalition, Vivid, VCA and Adam & Eve. Those intent on keeping it an outlaw industry include Max Hardcore, Rob Black, Gene Ross and Extreme Associates.

Kakmi writes that porn is sleazy, and that's the reason consumers like it and many people want to be in it. Precisely because the X-rated world is "dirty and secretive, beyond the pale and completely unacceptable to social norms. It is taboo, forbidden..."

Gough Lewis's documentary shows a prissy Michael J. Cox who says he's ashamed of Chong's gangbang video because it makes porn "look sleazy."

Kakmi says it's not easy to like Grace Quek in this documentary. She first appears in footage from TV's Jerry Springer Show where she appears manic. She was probably on speed at the time. To Springer's audience, she's a freak, "something to be prodded and played with."

From BNI's perspective, there's nothing wrong with a life of pornography. But one must be prepared to pay the social consequences:

"As other pornographers have demonstrated, once you have been sucked into the vortex, you can rarely ever go back. Most pornographers, who have made a name for themselves, forfeited a "normal" life for that of the social outcast, and even sacrificed the love and support of family relationships in order to fulfill their chosen destinies. But Grace Quek wanted to f--- like a man and to be still loved by her parents. She quickly discovered that such is not the way of the world for women."

Quek's parents lived in ignorance of their daughter's fame until the final minutes of the documentary. Then Grace's mom packs her daughter's suitcase and in tears asks her to not return home until she's restored her "dignity."

According to Dmetri Kakmi, and all pornographers and their supporters: "The true victims of pornography are not those who dedicate their lives to porn; nor are they the consumers; or even those unfortunate rapists and their rape victims. The real victims of pornography are the virtuous and moral men and women who live all of their lives with blinkers on, denying the unstoppable force of nature that is sex, and the often brutal realities of life that exist outside their cossetted, safe suburban homes."

This is ludicrous. Almost nobody is better off for knowing of the tragic and dirty realities of the porn industry. There are certain forms of knowledge that people are better off without, and porno is one of them.

And sex is not an "unstoppable force of nature." Most middle class people manage to harness and control it like they struggle to do with all their urges. Religion is just one mechanism for controlling and channeling this biological urge.

Anyone who's led a successful and ethical life has learned to control his impulses, sexual and otherwise.

Kakmi puts his finger on one of the great differences between liberal thought and conservative thought. Liberals and the post-60s crowd venerate "self expression." Conservatives venerate "self control." Conservatives and the religious put great emphasis on the individual learning to battle and subdue his own sinful and destructive drives. Liberals seem to put more emphasis on the individual doing battle with societal evils such as racism and sexism.

Kakmi writes: "Had the two great monotheistic religions of the world not spent so much of their time and efforts moralizing sex, it is doubtful so many of their subjects would be living under cover of the universal hypocrisy and delusion that now blankets the world. It's the oldest story in the book. Sex will bring down your house."

Luke says: Sex will not inherently bring down your house. I have many friends who've been married twenty years and longer. They have kids. They have honored places in their community. Sex has not brought down their house. They've learned to control and channel their sex urge.

And what do you expect religions to do with sex? Not moralize it? Allow their adherents to do anything they want sexually? No civilizations has allowed people to engage in sex free of taboos. And what civilizations does Kakmi believe show us a better way? What civilizations, for instance, have treated its citizens, and particularly its women, better than Western civilization which is based on Judaism and Christianity?

And there are three great monotheistic religions - Judaism and its daughter religions of Christianity and Islam.

Steve Neece writes: We must have seen 2 different Annabel Chong documentaries.It is Annabel herself who tearfully promises to restore her dignity.Her mother merely listens and encourages her to do so. He says Annabel wants to f--- like a man.I suppose there is truth to that but not one man in 10,000 ever racked up Annabel's numbers. It is true that society does not want women to act like men but is this inherently right?The question here is;is she in control of her life?The answer is;not entirely.

It is obvious to me that Annabel's problems arise from feelings of unattractiveness and the need to overcompensate for it.Being raised in Christianity undoubtedly twisted her mind as well.

You say that people are better off not knowing many things.Whatever happened to the saying "knowledge is power".or "ignorance is evil"?You do not want responsibility ,Luke.You are a lazy coward.Most of us subliminate our sexual urges to one degree or another simply because 99% of us cannot have sex every time we wish to.Self control is good.Self hate is bad.The middle class may have more self control,sexual and otherwise, than the poor,but they also have less sexual hangups.The poor may or may not f--- more but they assuredly enjoy it less.

How in the hell can you say Christianity/Judaism has done more for women.EVERY advance made by women in the western world was made IN SPITE of Judaeo/Christian opposition.As for present day religions,no major one has high opinions of women.But none are as bad as Islam/Christianity or Judaism.Ancient religions were less evil towards women on the whole.It gripes me that religious types point to western achievement as proof of Christianity's superiority.Almost all advances in western civ. were made in the teeth of religious opposition , and by those who tended to be non religious.Luke,I'm sure you know that "The Age of Faith" was also known as "The Dark Ages" and with good reason.

As for every civilization having sex taboo's,yes.Rape,incest etc.And incest mostly because of the genetic defects of the offspring rather than any purely moral reason.One moralizes about sex,hopefully,the same way they do other things.It is when all morality is based on the do's and don'ts of sex that society is twisted and suffers.A woman is judged moral or immoral on how she conforms to arbitrary sexual mores.Is this ridiculous?!Are there no other facets of life?Doesn't this seem absurd.The virgin serial killer is a "good" woman and Veronica Hart is evil.Luke ,are you such an inferior weakling that you have no self control.

The problem is that the majority of citizens are incapable of thinking logically.Whether they are religious or atheists their genetic inferiority dooms them to lives of failure.As Dr.Pierce says,they are mindless Lemmings.The answer is the mass sterilization,by any means necessary,of the bottom 90% of the gene pool,WORLDWIDE.THERE ARE TOO MANY PEOPLE FOR EARTHS RESOURCES TO SUPPORT AND IT IS THE FAULT OF MINDLESS f---ING RELIGIOUS ASSHOLES WHO EXHORT THEM TO BREED NEVER THINKING OF THE CONSEQUENCES!!!!!!!! REBUT ME IF YOU CAN!!!!!

Chaim Amalek writes: Think how influential Dr. Pierce would be today if his message were not constantly being blotted out by the jewish oligarchs who control our media. Thank G-d at least for a few brave jews like you, Luke, who help spread the word.

Luke Fascinated By Whores, Whoring

Lynne L-patin: Remember a few months back, when you were so fascinated by the word "whore?" Now you seem to be fascinated by whores, whoring, escorting, the profession....what's going on?
Lynne L-patin: And it's only female whores...male whores seemed to have completely slipped under the radar. Yet, without male whores, there would be no heterosexual porn business. Are you sublimating some Jack the Ripper urges?
Luzdedos1: no, but i have much less interest in male sexuality, it is so simple and unironic
Lynne L-patin: I'm just jealous of the money they make, that's all.
Lynne L-patin: No strings, i.e. commitment, attached. Allows for objectification of women. When a certain hatred of women, usually an ineffectual mom, is reached, we have serial killers.

Lynne writes: I agree with your conclusion that there are certain forms of knowledge that most people are better off not knowing....because most people don't have the ability to adequately process the information....the victims of pornography are those who, without thinking of the future, dedicate their lives to porn and who sublimate their needs to build human relationships into the momentary relief of compulsive masturbation.

Help! - Jeanna Fine Coming To Town

Jeeter writes on BigDoggie.net: this one is easy....she absolutely partakes, so no problem there, but you will need someone to make an intro if you dont use an agency, these folks are very aware of the possiblity of stings......if you frequent your local strip club enough that you have a rapport with any of the employyes, bartender, doorman, owner etc...just tell this person that you want them to introduce you. One you have her alone for a drink, simply ask if she may have some time for you outside of the club, maybe an hour or two. That'll do it, but it'll cost probably about $1,500 an hour. Hint; if your wife/gf/mistress etc is bi...this will help as Jeanna is more into girls, and really gets into threesomes where the woman is submissive and will do things either to you or her upon her instructions....she gets off on watching for a bit, then participating once things are going good. My gf and I have been with her twice, and it'll blow your mind!! Bottom line is that yyou need an intro from someone who has some credibility with her, so I hope you know someone at the club, if not, you'd better pre-book with an agency.....

Nici Of Nicisgirls.com Is Not Nikki Of Bob's Foxy Lady

Nici@Nicisgirls.com writes: Luke, I have had many people e-mail me asking if I am the same "Nikki" who was working for Bob. #1, I have never heard of Bob or his agency, and #2, you must be some kind of retard to think that I am or ever was working for Foxey Lady since a) Nici's Girls has been on the Internet years before Foxey Lady, ASF, Covergirls, Exotica 2000, Body Miracle, and whoever else I might be confused with in your news, and b) I have never worked for anyone other than myself. Obviously a lot of retards read your news so please post this entire message for all of them. Nici of Nici's Girls is spelled N-I-C-I (just like Nici Sterling although for the umpteenth time I am NOT Nici Sterling), and Bob's phone/call girl is Nikki (notice no C, two K's). I hope that clears it up.

Chicago Dude writes on Bigdoggie.net: What amazes me is how surprised everyone is acting about FLE [Fosy Lady Escorts] getting pinched. Have we forgotten that the very nature of this hobby operates outside the "acceptable" norms of our society? Every time this hobby is indulged in there are known risks that are taken. Disease, Law enforcement, other violent crime. etc. Did people really think that because an agency has been around for so long that it was somehow exempt from the scrutiny of the law enforcement? If so I am surprised and rather dissapointed.

As I see it every person that involves themselves in this hobby has two choices. Choice #1 Shut up. Be a man about it. Deal with the consequences. Choice #2 Get out of the hobby. This hobby will always exist. No matter how hard the police and other bible thumpers try....

Those of us that have been around for many years know that the days of Cicero clubs, North Avenue, and other such pleasures are long since over. We have learned to adapt. A few suggestions to help you minimize the risks associated with this hobby. Dogs don't s--- in their bed! Why do we? Geeze guys! If you have to get an escort. Don't do it in your own city! Go somewhere else so that if you do get pinched who cares if your name is in the paper. Boards like this are a great place to exchange information. HOWEVER! because these are free and anonymous boards, any information that is swapped is ALSO available to LE. Idiots that post intimate details of their encounters only aggravate the situation.....on many levels. I know my rant has sounded like a self righteous speech on the evils of our hobby, but it isn't. I've enjoyed this hobby for a long time and will for a long time to come. But I follow my own advice and RARELY use Chicago based services.

TBH writes on BigDoggie.net's Chicago board: Regardless of how you feel about it, the police were in fact doing their job and this serves as a reminder of the dangers of furnishing personally identifiable information to anyone, period. My suspicion is that CPD is probably getting a curious hoot over reading these threads. Having made that observation and seeing the various posts expressing concern if the agency's records are disclosed, let me suggest some ways that this data can and has been used in the past: 1. LE may wish to build a case against the agency. To do so, they might contact and interview the persons named to ask about their experiences with the agency. While there is a right to remain silent, a false answer could result in an obstruction charge. 2. Going a step further, a grand jury could be commenced. You could be given a subpoena and forced to testify. Immunity could be granted so that you would not be prosecuted for any acts involving the agency but you could if you lie under oath or refused to answer questions. 3. Also, regardless of a grand jury's involvement, you could get a subpoena to testify at trial for what is known as "other acts" evidence. Again, immunity could be granted so that you would not be prosecuted for any acts involving the agency but you could if you lie under oath or refused to answer questions. Not to mention that the IRS might have an interest and contact you as well.

Mexican Porn

Sergio writes: Luke, there IS a porn market in Mexico. The company I work for distributes some titles in Brazil. And they're not bad.

Lynne writes: To my knowledge there was never a commercial video porn industry in Mexico, but, during the seventies and before, there was a tremendous amount of hardcore kiddie porn made in Mexico, primarily stills, which was circulated worldwide....

South By Southwest Film Festival

Vivid girl Lori Michaels writes: Luke, Variety hosted a panel discussion during the South by Southwest film festival in Austin. The subject was "transitioning from porn into mainstream". I took some pics and thought you might enjoy. The panel was hosted by film reporter Dana Harris from Variety who was a very sweet lady.

Yep, that is Brian Gross. He actually did a very good job, and what really surprised me is that he said several really good things about Vivid and how it is bring porn more into the main stream. He did an excellent job.

Lynne's Obsessions

Lynne L-patin writes: Despite my distaste at giving the pathetic Jeremy Steele even more exposure via l-keford.com, I think it's worth trying to figure out how this lonely little man justifies his transparently psychotic behavior, since the truth seems to upset him so, and my dear friend Luke is so dedicated to stirring up the gutter in search of that slime known as truth.

If Jeremy Steele thought I was obsessed or crazy in the first place, why did he bother to seek me out and establish contact? Because I was a porn producer? Did he think I would give him a job if he gave me an STD? At the time, he told me he had gotten a bad reputation because of his psychotic ex-, Eden Rae, and I was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt, so corresponded with him for a week or two via e-mail before agreeing to meet him. If someone is obsessed here, it seems to be Mr. Steele who, over a year after he told me that there was no reason ever to contact him again, seems to take delight in calling me all sorts of names in a public venue, resorting to obscenities when he cannot make a valid point.

Whatever the status of Mr. Steele's STD's were in February, 2000 is completely irrelevant as regards his current health status. I wish him nothing but At that time, Mr. Steele had a serious, communicable yeast infection. I am happy to release my personal or performers' health records to any legitimate journalist (or even Luke F-rd) who wants them. STD's are an occupational hazard in the porn business and not in themselves a cause for making value judgements. Performers who show up on the set with what appear to be STD's should not expect to be allowed to shoot, but directors/producers being both greedy and ignorant, they err not on the side of caution but more often toward stupidity. Yeast infections and vaginitis often go unnoticed by cast and crew -- believe it or not, some men think women's genitals are supposed to look and smell awful! And men are afraid to turn down a scene despite noticing that the woman has a profuse discharge -- hey, guys, that's disease! Why risk a couple weeks off work for one scene?

One of the common things porn guys say when they have an STD and want to do a scene is that they have friction sores, or friction burns, thus explaining away herpes, warts, yeast and other assorted nasties. Problem is, on the set, when a girl refuses to do the scene with the guy, she's labeled "uncooperative." Guys who show up too often with these excuses eventually find themselves blacklisted by the girls who stick around for a while. They work very infrequently. They end up jacking off for homos over the internet.

I had always thought, based on my long involvement with the adult industry, that sex with a porn performer was safer than with strangers, because porn performers have an understanding of STD's and the need to prevent them; moreover, they can be located through business contacts. Strangers in bars (or in shul, Luke) have no commitment to your health, and are perfectly happy to fly back to Cleveland or Tel Aviv leaving you with only a social disease as a memory of the encounter. With a porner, I could make a few phone calls and put him out of work for weeks. or just post notice on l-keford.com and create havoc, lots of it. Makes one wonder why Jeremy Steele would have chosen me as the recipient of his inflamed, diseased penis...."Stop me, before I kill again!"

The thought of Jeremy Steele telling me I shouldn't have sex with him any more because he might have a disease is really funny! Actually what he told me is that he saw no reason for me to ever contact him again, with which I concur, because he's obviously not the kind of man (and I'm using that term very loosely) any woman would want in her life. Perhaps he should have told me that I shouldn't have sex with him any more because he was a psychotic, and I surely deserved better. I'm just using a label here that others have given him -- I always thought "jerk" more than sufficed as an accurate description of the guy.

According to Jeremy, because I think Luke is a "Genious," (whatever that is....), I'm insane. If I were to obsess over Jeremy Steele, now that WOULD be insanity, but, much to Jeremy's apparent dismay, I've never had the slightest urge to obsess over him at all. He fantasizes. Perhaps he is jealous. Perhaps he envies Luke, thinking I obsess over Luke. Now, trying to deal with Luke's complex psychopathology does indeed make me nuts. I have at least two grey hairs for every fringe on the boy's magic underwear. I often can't decide if Luke is my friend or not, but then, Luke can't decide whether he is his own friend or not. Because Luke has never had friends, he frequently has trouble interpreting my behavior toward him. He is excruciatingly sensitive, and afraid of his own shadow. I send Luke a Happy Face icon and say "Good Morning" and he thinks I'm demanding the prepuce of his first born son.

Luke and I share a religion....and I am religiously devoted to Luke? What religion could this be? I am an atheist, leaning toward a Christian interpretation of God which does not accept the divinity of Jesus. Luke claims to be an Orthodox Jew whose best friends are pimps and whoremongers. I think that, if I were to have a religion, I would not choose the one that leads Luke to such confusion. I would definitely prefer one that allows for forgiveness, though. Lord, forgive the Jeremy Steele's of this world --- for giving the porn business a bad name, as if that were possible, for they know not how foolish they appear.

Jeremy Steele replies: All I've got left to say are four words: Koo Koo! Koo Koo!

Advice To Luke

Jeremy Steele writes: Hey Luke, I think that you're site has evolved to some degree.. At times you post some important, interesting news about the adult industry and the world.. You now have advertisers.. You've gotten alot of attention and you, still, could go even further.. But I sincerely feel that you are shooting yourself in the foot and taking away from being taken seriously by having constant dialogues on your site with a mental case. Just because that mental case endlessly lavishes you with attention and devout praise should not justify posting this ongoing social intercourse.. Why don't you change the site name to LukeandLynn.com I'm sure she'd love that. Seriously, why doesn't she create a site of her own and see how many people go to listen.. We are here to read what crazy journalist Luke F-rd has to say.. That's more than enough nuttiness to deal with, and there are enough crazies who actually work in the business to address, Ok? Yes, perhaps I'm one of them, too. Remember, Dave Hardman, a self admitted sex-addict who the Adam Film Guide has said will "f--- anything with a pussy and a pulse" had to have this woman arrested and put a restraining order against her. Now, THAT's saying something.

I'm not going to bother to address or readdress any of the mad ramblings and supposed insight based on intensive thinking of a highly deranged mind. But I'm laughing at the alleged STD laden yeast infections I supposedly gave her and whoever else and the supposed jealousy I have of Luke for being the genious that he is.

I think your site really can take off luke if you stop stirring around the runway where a mental case hoot and cheers, and focus straight forward upon the path of journalistic integrity.

Luke says: Thanks... I don't take sides in most disputes on my site, even though I have definite opinions... I am lazy and by taking sides, I can unnecessarily antagonize people... I feel a little bad for putting you through the LF.com torture but I hope some good things come out of this for you.

Lynne writes: I challenge any interested party to search any court records in Los Angeles County to see if there are actually any restraining orders issued against me by anyone. Otherwise, certain parties are risking libel suits for continuing to perpetuate malicious rumors with no facts to back them up.

Luke's Nightmares

I dreamed Sunday morning that while routinely backing my van, I slid off a mountain. I could feel myself falling and I knew that I was going to die. Then I woke up.

Bob Jones writes: Luke, buddy, you've got to change your life. Up until now I thought you were doing OK, balancing the website and your judaism. This dual life is killing you. My advice: give up the website, go back to college. Even if you give up Judaism, you're still living a dual life because to run the website you have to pretend to be friends with people you really don't want to be friends with. You need mainstream friends, real people who aren't over the hill ex-porn people or current porn people seeking publicity. I think this stuff is killing you inside. You've sounded increasingly isolated recently. Tell me you don't hate it.

Shakespeare writes Luke: Bob's right. To thine own self be true.

Heather Barron writes: Funny, I had the same dream Luke. Only it was a Hyundai...it did tumble off a mountain and rumor has it onlookers were hovering above my dead body murmuring "Damn, I think they stopped making the parts for that one."

Lynne L-patin: A few nights ago, while I was in the hospital, I dreamed about Luke. I had found a Jewish-themed tapestry, like a placemat for a table setting, and asked if I could have it for my friend. When I took it to Luke, he was standing beside a dock, dressed in Orthodox schoolboy clothes (black pants, white shirt). He threw the tapestry into the water, where it sank, and he dove in after it. When he emerged, dripping wet, he held me in his arms, and I could feel his huge, throbbing 8" erection pressed tightly against my belly. I said to myself, "This is obviously a dream. Not only does Luke not have an 8" cock, but he's far too lazy to dive in after anything!"
