Put It Together For Us, Luke

Pete Pud Puller writes: 1) I've been hearing the term "Penthouse Pet" aplied to Brooke Lane for a couple of years now. But I don't recognize her (that in and of itself may not mean anything), and I can't find her in any list of pets. Perhaps she was a model in the magazine but not a Pet, or maybe she's like that escort who, when pressed for the issue when she as the Pet of the Month, says, "It was the Italian Penthouse." Can you shed some light on when and in what capacity Ms. Lane appeared in Penthouse?

2) Can you make some sense of the unintelligible by interpreting the Nici-Stacey thread for us? Cutting and pasting e-mails does your readers no service when there are so many pronouns without antecdents and when emotions and other considerations get in the way of English usage? Put it together for us, Luke.

The Strikeout Kings

Phone sex pioneer Jeff Goodman writes: I looked around your site a little more and see you are still in touch with Josh Friedman. We were old friends in Manhattan, along with Richard Jaccoma, hanging around in clubs. We were once in Studio 54 on a certain bench where we sat near the bathroom, where you could see all the girls come in and out.

We called ourselves "The Strikeout Kings". Doing our best to pick up girls there, we would often say "Hello" to a nice specimen, and the common reply of the Studio 54 girls would be "f--- You".

Alexa Returns To Porno?

Kevin Moore writes at StunningCurves.com: I got a tip from a source within SinCity that they are possibly offering former Wicked contract starlet, Alexa, a contract. Back on March 28th, we posted a story on Alexa retiring from the adult business and leaving Wicked Pictures. This new rumor from SinCity would suggest that Alexa is returning to the movie business. We contacted Alexa who did confirm she is returning to doing movies, but has not received any offer from SinCity, yet.

JRob writes: Note the comment I sent you regarding Alexa leaving adult films. What is the time on the stop watch?

Allure Models Sends A Message

David Moore from AllureModels.com writes Luke:

A MESSAGE FOR ALL!

First and Foremost: This corporation will not tolerate any more slanderous and libelous remarks being made about us. Period!

We will document every bogus remark about us and compile it in our case against those that are foolish enough to make such silly and unfactual allegations.

I (David Moore, the President and CEO of this Corp.) have challenged anyone to prove that we have ever cheated, wronged, mislead, or misrepresented any model or company in this business. Not surprisingly, no one has ever been able to accuse us of any wrong doing and support it with facts. Our challenge is ongoing!

As far as Jody Moore from Australia (the girl who has screwed us and others in the business during her short stay here in the U.S. and is telling everyone that she never signed an Exclusive agreement with us) is concerned, she is the one that screwed us! WAKE UP EVERYBODY! We did NOT screw her.

Therefore, everyone needs to stop attacking us as though we did something wrong to her.

For those of you that do not know INS law by thinking that we are liable as the management company, we highly suggest that you learn the law concerning matters such as this. The employers and the foreign talent is liable. Just call any INS attorney and verify this if you do not beleive us. We are speaking from experience.

For those of you that think our contract with her is not valid we highly suggest you learn Contract Law before spewing at the mouth. You just make asses of yourselves when you make such ignorant remarks. It makes no difference whether a model is from the U.S. or not for a contact to be valid. As long as ALL parties agreed to the terms and conditions of the Contract pertaining to the Laws of the State of Calif governing the Contract, then it is valid. Simple!

People in this business never cease to amaze us. Everyone should be attacking of Jody and her Husband Craig for their unthical and evil behavior. To show you how stupid she is, I actually arranged for a personal meeting with her, the senior editor at Playboy and myself. This is not easy if anyone knows the protocol at Playboy. It is perhaps the biggest meeting she would have ever had in her life and because she is so stupid she blew it by screwing me. AMAZING!

I don't want to hear this nonsense about how she is "petrified" of me (as Rob Spallone writes). This is just another one of their deceptive smoke screens to try and make me out to be the bad guy! It will not work with us.

It should be known that Jody, her husband, and their traveling companion have been turned over to INS. This is no joke. They were given a chance to redeem themselves with us but they unwisely chose to follow our sound advice. Now their identities and personal information are in the system of every U.S. Embassy in the world. The results are devasting. They will never be granted a traveling or working visa to the U.S. EVER again.

And all because they did not have enough common sense to walk a staight line while here. Instead, they chose to screw lots of people and now they themselves ultimately suffer. Anybody who takes the side of a liar and cheat is not wise. We do not enjoy doing what we have done but we were forced to do so out of honor and to protect our bests interests. People should be thanking us instead of attacking us because we just got rid of another parasite that makes this business more difficult to work and profit in.

Max writes: Hi Luke- I just had to comment on this alluremodels.com thing you keep on posting. This guy David Moore is such a pain in the neck. I dont even know him but I cant stand him. He is so annoying. I think you've given him enough publicity, pull the plug on this joker.

James DiGiorgio writes: Lukey, Is this guy for real? He's killing himself for future work from anyone in this industry who reads his crap. He sounds like a zealot trying to make some f---ing obsessed point, but the only point he's made so far is that he's a f---ing rat! I don't give a f--- if it's the FBI, the DEA, or the INS, a rat's a f---ing rat and this f---ing guy's a rat bastard. So beware my fellow pornographers: If you do business with someone whose first recourse (when things don't go his way) is to rat you out for something...real or imaginary...don't say you weren't warned because a RAT'S A f---ING RAT!

Luke says: David Moore is simply a businessman who operates in a law abiding manner. He will aggressively protect his business interests against slander. He will not allow people to violate his contracts. He will first make an appeal to someone he believes has wronged him. And if that doesn't work, he will turn to his lawyer or other legal entities. He does not make illegal threats.

Carl Ruderman and Phone Sex

Longtime porn magazine editor Jeff Goodman writes: I saw the paragraphs below on your site. This is entirely true, but you know only the tip of the iceberg of this story and it's threads.

"Phone sex took off in 1983, with Gloria Leonard and High Society magazine leading the way. "We owned these 976 phone lines that were used until then for weather, sports, Dial a prayer. Dial a joke. We tried to figure out how to make some money off the lines. At first we simply used them to announce the contents of our coming issue. Then we wrote sexy scenarios [jerk-off routines] which the centerfolds recorded."

On special days, like Christmas or Valentine's Day, Gloria recorded her own masturbatory fantasies. Ruderman was the November 1983 Hustler magazine "Asshole of the Month."

XXX writes: "Although Carl Ruderman is widely known in smut circles as 'The Father of Phone Sex', in point of fact he pilfered the idea from the true originator of dial-a-porn, editor Jeff Goodman, whom Ruderman fired when the idea took off."

I actually got the idea of paid phone sex when I worked for David Zentner as an editor. He used to spend long hours on the phone having masturbatory conversations with women he would meet through his publications. I always wondered that if David loved to do this so much, so would millions of guys.

We first set up phone sex with 2 ordinary answering machines in the High Society office when I went to work there. Ruderman claimed no one would call, I insisted they would. We put a number on a centerfold in one issue saying you could "hear the girl"...the answering machines BURNED OUT before the issue hit the stands from guys working at the presses calling and telling their friend. Then we bought 9 commericial heavy duty machines and they ran off the hook 24 hours a day with more phone lines being put in weekly. Still no revenue from it though.

Pretty soon the phone company was calling...."What are you doing there? Our Manhattan switches can't handle the call levels....millions of calls!"

I negotiated a way to get paid a few cents per 976 call. Everyone at phone company said they could not pay us, impossible, never done before, but finally met with someone with a brain who realized the potential and a way to set it up. Ruderman had his first million dollar check copied and framed on his office wall at Drake Publications.

There is a video tape, made to document the company at the time around 1982, which actually shows me explaining, inventing, and setting up the first phone sex lines...a dubious honor. "Jeff, I'll take care of you", was Ruderman's speech to me. I was 22, dumb, believed him. He went on to make many tens of millions, I indeed got the dump when it took off, never got a cent. I was a stupid kid, should have signed a binding contract with royalties. Many, many more interesting facts if you are interested.

I was in porn business for many years as editor, packager, publisher with virtually every player. Now am in other business. I have a new idea which will be many times bigger than phone sex, am looking for venture capital...it will be expensive, but, if I must say so myself, will be the biggest thing since sliced bread (another fav phrase of Carl Ruderman).

Luke Gets Mail

Ed Phillips writes: As you know, the media line is always going to be "these women do it for the money, financial reasons, blah, blah, blah," and then stop thinking about the matter altogether, and go on to the next subject. As a matter of fact, Matt Laurer on NBC Morning Show, interviewed the lady who wrote the book on the Mustang Ranch on his show 2 weeks ago, and he prefaced the interview by saying just that: "These women have to make a living, and this is how they choose to do it, and I'll bet they're pretty good at it!"(Who isn't good at sex?)

That's the state of the media regarding the sex industry. The psychoanalytic view of incest avoidance and trauma reenactment explains why so many of these "working mothers" are into sex work. But let's be real: nobody wants to hear that kind of drivel, and it's a lost cause, but I thought I'd try to push it through for the hell of it.

Hooker Ring Boss Cops Plea

NEW YORK (AP) -- An Upper East Side woman who was accused of running a $4,000-an-hour hooker service online pleaded guilty Monday to attempted money laundering in a deal that allows her to be released from jail immediately.

Maria Uzo Egwu, 30, admitted in court that her online escort service, Glamour Roses, was actually a prostitution business, but she pleaded guilty only to attempted money laundering in the second degree. State Supreme Court Justice Carol Berkman sentenced Egwu, who had no prior arrests, to time served -- just under five months.

Mnenne Egwu-Igwe, 42, of Central Islip, on Long Island, admitted that she received money from Egwu and knew it was earned by prostitution. The judge ordered Egwu-Igwe to pay $50,000 in forfeited ill-gotten gains.

Egwu achieved limited fame as a Howard Stern fan and guest and was once hostess of her own cable television show, "Dance Ventures of Uzo." She now claims to be embarrassed about that period of her life, her lawyer said.

When Egwu was arrested, District Attorney Robert Morgenthau said she ran her business out of eight East Side apartments and grossed more than $2 million a year. He said Egwu hired the women for her service and set up their dates.

Morgenthau said the Glamour Roses Web site promoted an "escort" service that provided "upscale gentlemen" with the "most exquisite women in the entire world." The Web site featured photographs of women, some of them nude, rated A, B, C, S (for super) or M (for mega). Prices of the women's company ranged from about $1,200 an hour to almost $4,000 an hour and up to $32,000 for a weekend.

Lauren Montgomery - Gentlemen, Start Your Engines

MrP writes on BigDoggie.net: Ok guys, I left a post a few days ago responding to someone about Lauren, and was told my response was to vague. Here is what you need to know. Lauren is spectacular beyond belief. There are lots of girls who try to do the PSE/GFE [Porn Star Escort/Girl Friend Escort] experience. There are VERY FEW women who do. Those of you who would appreciate the difference, take notice. Lauren is like driving a fine sports car. You can not know how satisfying this experience can be without "going through the curves at high revs". Lauren is responsive and gives back as much as you can give and more. If you get to know her, and she is comfortable with you, all things are possible. Bring toys. If you want, she'll bring a girlfriend. And remember at all times, she is a LADY! It is a privilage to be with her. Do not even think about approaching her if your heart or your billfold is weak. I believe she uses an agency to screen whoever contacts her, but you can email her directly at her websight www.laurenmontgomery.com. Gentleman, start your engines.

Sodom writes: I believe it is customary to note what languages were spoken and which ones needed interpretation, how much kissing was permitted, what rules were adhered to (there's always SOME rules), etc, to make any review complete. Basically what I gather from your review is a. I had a good time. b. She's expensive. This is useful info, but not enough for anybody to make a decision either way.

Mrp writes: Ok, I've known Lauren for some time and we've become extremely comfortable so YMMV [Your Mileage May Vary]! I said all things are possible. that means all things. All languages. And fluently spoken. BBBJ [Bare Back Blow Job (BBBJ) = oral sex without condom (aka French Without)] is really a treat. Anything else is covered, because its the only sane thing to do. Please guys, she's a more than another one that available, there a real person inside....treat her with respect.

Brooke Lane In New York

From NYCFantasies.com: Brooke is a breasty former Penthouse Pet who has been easing her way into the porno ranks over the past couple of years. A blonde strumpet with an amazingly tight and taut figure, Brooke's ravishing physique is her main claim to porno fame. She's got that top-heavy stripper look that never seems to go completely out of style in hardcore circles. Brooke's also developed into a quite expressive sexer on screen, which doesn't hurt her carnal career prospects.

Brooke's first flirtation with the porno scene came in 1996's glossy feature "Zazel." She was just one of the scantily-clad Penthouse gals who cavorted their way through the soft-focus sizzler, lurking in the background of some sexy scenes. Brooke didn't dabble in porn again for another two years, preferring to work on pumping up her boobs and her feature dancing career. By 1998, though, she was ready to jump back into the frenetic fray. Brooke's good looks and go-getter approach have led to a handful of riveting and raunchy performances. Fans of brash and brassy blonde bombshells would do well to check Brooke out in any of her hardcore handful of features. Brooke Lane's rates in NYC: 1 hour, $1,500 2 hours, $2,500 4 hours, $4,500 8 hours, $8,000 12 hours, $10,000 To view Brooke Lane's portfolio, visit our website: www.nycfantasies.com To book an appointment, e-mail: bookings@nycfantasies.com Or call: (212) 253-8222

Battle of the Madams - Stacey vs Nici

Internet escorts are big business and perhaps the best known of all internet escorting services is NicisGirls.com. Nici of Nicisgirls.com is often referred to as the new Heidi Fleiss. Nici has a long running feud with Stacey who operates the competing service CoverGirlInternational.com.

Various escort services routinely advertise models who do not work for them. For instance, model Patricia Ford says she's never met or talked to Stacey of CoverGirls who claims to know her.

Model Patricia Ford from PatriciaFord.com writes: "Dear Luke, It was very nice to talk to you on the phone today. I just wanted to send you an e-mail to reiterate that I do not know Stacey of Covergirls International. I have never spoken to her and I have certainly never worked for her. I found out that she had my pictures on her website almost a year ago so I sent her an e-mail back then asking her very nicely to please remove them. She replied that she would only do so if I called her. The nerve she has! She put my pictures up without my permission in the first place, she did not even know me! So I left her a message on her voicemail to take my pictures down from her website immediately or else I would take legal action against her. She then sent me a dozen e-mails trying to sell herself on me and dropping names of different girls.

"When it became clear to her that I would never work for her she became very irate and threatened me! I talked to some of the girls she mentioned and they were all very upset because they did not know her either. I just got back from the Internext convention in Las Vegas where I was approached by a lot of my friends who told me that she still has my pictures up on her website and that she is constantly dropping my name in her e-mails when trying to recruit girls and clients, she says that we are very good friends! Whoever this lady is she is obviously a liar and I would advise any girl or client that she might have to stay as far away from her as possible because she is obviously very unstable. You would not believe the awful things I heard about her in Las Vegas, there is not a single person that I talked to who had a nice thing to say about her. It amazesd me how she is still in business! If I find out that she mentions my name again or still has my pictures up after this I will definitely take legal action."

Stacey at CoverGirlsInternational.com writes: Luke, I say this is another one of Nici's letters she sends these out all the time to start trouble. I had a nice conversation with Patricia way back a year ago...when Nici and I were going to book a few girls together, this is after I sent Nici 5 wonderful incredible Playmates and got nothing in return but harrassed by her. and the poor girls......which all had horrible problems with her which I wish not to go into as I wish not to even discuss Nici anymore...she is just a horrible greedy kid that desparately needs to grow up! I had to block my emails and phone from all her ridiculous calls, I called her three times in my life, she called me 30 times a day! it was insane, Luke!

anyways, about Patricia, she asked me to take the pics down that she only wished to work with Nici as she Tousara Cousino [Playboy Playmate] worked together with Nici as her top girls and so I took them down, there was no threats from either of us...(why would there be threats, about what? thats ridiculous...)

I did tell her she should stay with Nici when she contacted me to work much later after Nici had sent her to all her clients and she wasn't getting the work she was so use to getting and I said, she should stay with Nici, that she was Nici's top girl, and no offense but for that kind of money I had too many girls too competitive with her looks. I was just being honest she was Nicis most beautiful girl but I have so many incredible girls and several who have her look that she would just be another gorgeous Playmate with me and not billed as special as with Nici....Maybe it hurt her feelings, I didn't mean to, I was just telling it like it was.....Patricia is beautiful, but I have 20 girls just as beautiful with more recent credits with Playboy or Penthouse for $10k a night....

Luke you have to know.....that.... Nici and Mike [formerly of AdultStarFantasy.com and now operating NYCFantasies.com} send all kinds of emails out pretending to be girls and have dozens of fake email addresses.....they also play the message boards against me and several other agents and black ball girls terribly when they cross them. I just don't pay any attention to it Luke....who has the time? 15 years I have been with incredible people....Nici and Mike have just been around a few years....and if they keep sending things out causing trouble for everyone especially in the media...I don't see how they'll be around much longer...? This is a very discreet business or it use to be until Nici came along...she just can't leave things alone because she is jealous, vendictive, greedy and very immature.

Patricia is not on my site and has not been on my site accept for that one week about a year ago! Unlike Nici....If a girl is on my site and ask to cvome down I take her down. I have model releases from all my girls.

Nici is pissed off at me because I downloaded her private milliionaires club after several girls contacted me after hearing they were on her site. One of her Clients sent me the pass word to get in and sure enought they were all there....Carrie Stevens asked me to please download the pics and send them to her which I did.

She just couldn't believe she was there, she has never escorted for anyone! I thought it was only fair to be honest with her and sent the downloaded disc with Nicis watermarks across her photos as Proof and to my girlfriends to show the girls I personally know who don't know Nici, such as Buffy Tyler, Layla Roberts, Tonya Offer, Juliet Cariega and a dozen others who are not escorting for Nici and never had or even know her....They are all ready to get together with Playboy and sue Nicisgirls that is how upset they are she is exploiting them!

So Luke again, I say this is just another one of Nicis nasty ways to try to make me look bad in public and as always it just makes her look like a fool. The Clients who book with me and the girls I work with adore me as much as I adore them and I don't feel it necessary to have girls send letters to toot my horn or to disgrace Nici, she does that well enough on her own.

Luke says: Stacey, I did talk with Patricia Ford on the phone and she claimed she's never spoken with you. And Nici says she wants nothing to do with all this controversy. And regarding the Carrie Stevens story, I've seen evidence which substantiates that Carrie was never on Nicis Girls site. Carrie and Nici have no comment on this matter as they do not want to add fuel to the fire of gossip.

Stacey replies: Luke, I can't imagine what all this is about? The whole world knows Patricia Ford is an Escort now thanks to Nici's big mouth and the Philly magazine article, and she makes remarks against me? I just don't believe it, Luke...why would she?

When I was contacted by several agents of the media (Press) They asked me and told me several things stated against Patricia, Nici and a few others who work for Nici. I told them all Patricia was not an escort and I actually took up for her.....I felt sorry for her..... so I have no idea why she would make these statements.

Luke are you sure it was Patricia Ford you spoke to and not one of Nicis prank calls? I can't imagine Patricia even making statements she seemed to want to be very low key the times we talked. I just called her and left a message on her phone. I really would be shocked that Patricia would say anything bad about me or anyone else. We had our words over Nici but never anything bad said between us.

And....I have all the photos with Nicisgirls watermark across them Luke that seems to be proof enough as to who is lying.....shall I send them to you? Carrie Stevens and several girls were so upset after getting proof they were on her site as Escorts they were all going to Playboy against Nici and some of the girls did. Playboy's legal department along with several others have all contacted me asking me all about Nici. I told them I was not getting involved with Nici to contact the girls I wouldn't make a statement. I imagine from what they said to me you'll soon know who is lying and truly causing all the problems and see the real Nici when they take her to court!

Nici is going to be her worse enemy. I hate to see that happen to anyone. Luke she seems to be obsessed with playing a girl against me. Every couple of months this seems to happen, don't you see the pattern? Its so ridiculous....Gee I wonder who the poor girl will be next? Unreal! I mean Patricia Ford and I haven't discussed this for over 6 months why ....would this come up now??? Luke the truth is, Nici loves all this attention. I just wish she'd pick on someone else to get it. You contact me with things I feel must be commented on because most are lies....but I would like this to be the end of comments regarding Nici. Its always the same.....old story....it so old now I am sure your readers are sick of it...I am.

Luke says: I got a thank you phone call from Patricia Ford Tuesday morning. She reiterated that she's never communicated with Stacey and challenged Stacey to provide contact information for her, or to describe her voice and personality. And Playboy model Carrie Stevens says she's no ally of Stacey and that she wishes Stacey would stop throwing her name around the internet.

Patricia Ford writes: "Liar! Liar! Liar! That is all I can say. See what I mean, I told you she threatened me? Now I confront her and she tells everyone that I am a hooker? Liar! Liar! Liar! I am filing a defamation suit against her."

Luke asks: Stacey, does the Nici watermark prove that they were ever on her site? Or just in her hands? Isn't it possible that someone with Photoshop can apply a watermark. I understand that Nici puts up watermarks on all photos her clients so that other web sites

Stacey replies: Of course it proves it....she puts Nici in white across each photo on her site. All the girls were seen by me, Playboy, and tons of other people. What she does, is takes the girl down quick if she complains gives her access, then puts the girl back up after the temp access expires... really I don't care accept that most of the girls she has on their who do NOT work are the girls the guys are paying $5k to see and the girls find out and ask me and I am NOT going to lie about it Luke! What would you do if a girl calls you and never was in the escort business, worked really hard to keep a certain reputation and you like this person and know her pics are being sent to hundreds of men in an email and on a private escort site....you'd have to tell her.... wouldn't you?

Watermarks are to keep people from using the pics on other sites because when they are on your site it's alot of work taking the watermark off to use the pics. we all do it to protect our pics....so if there is watermarks on them, thats proof they were on the site, how else would I have them? get it...?..!

Here is Ava Vincent, she doesn't even know Nici but another one on her site lots of pics of her too and she had no idea they are being used to promote her as an escort. I spoke with her a few days ago.

This is the real joke all the guys paying to book Buffy Tyler, what a joke! Buffy has been Hefs Galpal and given all the toys and tons of money, sure she'll risk all that to work for Nici!???? She doesn''t even know Nici....and here is where Playboy stepped in, because Nici was promoting Buffy and frauduently taking deposits of $25k from several Men and now refuses to give them back their money. I explained all that to you in that email why didn't you print that?

Luke says: As I understand it, the affair with Buffy Tyler was a mess. A rich man said he would be willing to pay $25k to simply meet Buffy Tyler and Buffy was initially willing. But then she decided no, and things got messy.

Stacey writes: Gwen Rogers would flip out if she knew she was on her site! This is one of 7 pics watermarked and on her private millionaires Escorts Club. Carrie Stevens Buffy Tyler Ava Vincent Victoria Silvestedt Patricia Ford

Luke In response to your questions about Patricia. I had a very brief encounter with Patricia Ford as I told you. and as I said I hurt her feelings (I didn't mean to) when telling her she would not rank in as my Super Star and I couldn't book her for more than $10k a night. Unfortunately with what Nici said to her and this remark it caused a little uproar between us all. There never was any problem and it was a brief ordeal.

All I can tell you is her best friend is Tishara Cousino [Playmate and the Prodigy] and they worked together making tons of money for Nici. I suggest you contact Mark Ogalla and if you simply post asking Clients about her I am sure you'll get a response from those who met her personally through Nici who could tell you what she is really like I honestly don't know. She seemed easily impressionable believing every word Nici had told her and flying off the handle before checking it out. She then sent me an email saying she was exclusively available through Nici as an Escort and not to email her again, so I didn't. I had several emails and a couple phone calls with her and that was that. I do know if anything is being said negatively its coming from Mike at adult star fantasy Nici's partner or Nici or steming from things they say. I have blocked all their email and telephone numbers, including Patricia Ford now because I do not wish to be a part of petty gossip.

It's ridiculous to waste time listening to all the vicious gossip and all the trouble they constantly cause. It is always one of us, being attacked last time it was Robert at Body Miracle, then it was Madelyn, now its me. I don't understand why they are always instigating trouble, I just can't imagine Patricia Ford just suddenly bringing up an incident from a year ago??? Why? And really who cares? Nici told me Patricia had been working with her for a few years and so I suggest you contact her.

Stacy writes Luke June 9: Luke, I got an email today from a Playmate who said Nici was on a rampage about me again and threatening to take care of me and my business once and for all! I told this Playmate, a friend of mine.that she was on Nicis private side, knowing this Playmate personally and that she doesn't even know Nici. Nici up to her old tricks always promising Buffy Tyler and other Famous Girls she doesn't even know to take money from you guys.

I wanted nothing to do with Nici, but when someone is exploiting a friend of mine, I had no choice but to tell her! She is married and has NEVER escorted! Nici swore her photo was not on her site and flipped out screaming at my friend that I was a liar. I sent the girl her photo downloaded from Nicis private side with the watermark across the photo "NICISGIRLS" as proof and emailed a nice note, saying...'Nici, Please don't mention me in any of your conversations it just causes us all grief, I will tell people to contact you if they ask about you and you please just forget my name, I mean this in a nice way as its best for both of us as I don't have time for all this nonsense and gossip.'

Here is her reply so the world knows this is truly Nici of Nicisgirls and why things get posted about her in a rude manner constantly. For 15 years I have networked with every Top Agent in the Industry. I have NEVER experienced anyone so ruthless, jealous, vendicitve and vicious. You would think with all the girls and money she is making ..she would not have to pretend to have anyone and not have to exploit girls who are not in the Industry.

Nici writes Stacey 6/8/01: "f--- YOU...DROP DEAD...DON'T EVER f---ING E-MAIL ME AGAIN YOU f---ING PSYCHO PATHOLOGICAL LYING WHORE!!!!! YOU ARE THE f---ING SCUM OF THE EARTH!!! I PRAY EVERY DAY THAT A f---ING AIRPLANE COMES CRASHING THROUGH THE ROOF OF YOUR f---ING HOUSE AND f---ING KILLS YOU!!! GOT IT??? DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR??? DO YOU f---ING SPEAK ENGLISH OR JUST PSYCHO BABBLE??? GET SOME MEDICATION!!! GET A LIFE!!! JUST GET THE f--- OUT OF MINE!!! TU COMPRENDE???"

Luke says: "I believe Nici's emotional response came after a long feud with Stacey culminating in what Nici understood as Stacey's threats to go to law enforcement about Nici."

Patricia Ford tells Luke: "Stacey is hilarious. She has no idea how to even contact me. It's amazing that she claims to have spoken to me. She couldn't describe my voice or personality. Nothing she says makes sense. Stacey mentions she works with so many Playboy models. There's no way. It's bait and switch."

NicisGirls says: You may want to point something out in my defense. Stacey sent an e-mail to Patricia Ford accusing me of not knowing Doria and claiming to be her very good friend. Some friend she is, she does not even know that Doria has a monthly column featured on my website and appears in my gallery in exclusive content shot by my photographer for my website! But I don't know her huh?

Nici@Nicisgirls.com writes: Luke, Please do not ever contact me again. You gave me your word that you would leave me out of the Stacey and Patricia nonsense after I told you that I had no comment. You betrayed me by posting the letter to Stacey that I wrote last month in response to her e-mail as if it was in reply to the Patricia Ford thread. You also posted the e-mail she wrote about Carrie that was all lies. I don't care about all of this. Stacey is a jealous liar and I want to never hear her name again. The same goes for you. By the way, I have attached the picture of the actual page where Gwen Rogers appears on Stacey's website. I had Gwen up on my website last year after she had agreed to take a booking with me and then she changed her mind. I also helped Gwen contact Stacey to be removed from her website. I have forwarded this to Gwen incase she has comment.

This is Elke's page from Stacey's website. She has asked to be removed numerous times. Unlike Stacey who has falsely planted my watermark I have the actual page downloaded from her website. You already know she is a liar, this just proves it.

Last one, Mike [from NYCFantasies.com] already told you the truth about Mason Marconi and I am sure he can arrange for her to call you.

Porn star Ruby writes Luke from the Moonlight Bunny Ranch: "Luke, HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!!! And after reading the battle of the madams, I am so thankful that I'm legal and licensed!!! They think they're safe on the net, ha-ha, right!!! Their gonna bust them right down the line, especially the LOUD ones! oops, gotta go get laid, I had a request."

1990 - The Best Year In Porno?

Felix Miata writes on RAME: Good (as porn goes) Movies: House of Dreams, Night Trips 2, Secrets Book, The Pawnbroker, The All the Right Motions, Steal Breeze, Trick Tracy, Fifty Ways to Lick Your Lover, Scented Secrets

Pretty Wimmenz: K C Williams Stephanie Adams Suzanne St Lorraine Racquel Darrian Lauren Hall Sabrina Dawn Tera Heart Zara Whites Diedre Holland Eva Allen Jamie Summers Jennifer Stewart Cameo Tanya Devrils Tianna Tamara Lee Krystina King Megan Bradley Savannah Champagne

Noteworthy among all of the above:
1-Sillycones uncommon rather than most wimmenz getting them within year after 1st movie
2-Tattoos very rare among the wimmenz, not particularly common among da guyz
3-Far lower incidence of anal compared to past 5 years (nearly 2 in 5 feature movies had none at all)
4-Camera angles more flattering, far fewer fisheye views
5-Piercings limited to female ears
6-5-6 years time for shot on video porn to mature into good technical quality
7-Guyz not limited to parolees
8-Pubic hair not yet disappeared
9-Eroticism common
10-Interracial not part of virtually every movie

Time for modern videographers to get retro. Let's get unmutilated wimmenz back into porn. Natural is good.

Mike Paul replies: Aw, darn, so sad for you... Now all those Black and Asian people, clogging up your world...

Felix replies: To some, the issue isn't race, the issue is color. Some prefer brown houses, yellow shoes, black hair, brown cars, brown eyes, and olive furniture. Some are rather indifferent. Others prefer other colors. I like mauve sheets, blonde hair, blue eyes, pink cheeks, grey houses, lavender shirts, and white cars. Olive, brown, and yellow turn me off. While this produces no workplace problem, it just doesn't work in bed. Porn is about getting turned on, not the reverse. Each porn production doesn't need to be Heinz 57. Succotash every day, even though good for you, is no fun. One shouldn't need be limited to compilations to get single persuasion movies.

Muffdiving Madness - Yeshiva Lesbians Argue Their Case

From NYPost.com: July 3, 2001 -- ALBANY - Two lesbians at Yeshiva University who were denied the right to share university-housing beds with their lovers will get a chance to argue their case after a ruling from the state's top court yesterday.

Chaim Amalek writes: Follow this link, and check out the photo. Yes, that is supposed to be a WOMAN. As AMALEK has long argued, the homosexual MUST, inevitably, set his sights on the torah, as the torah is an important source of homophobic truths.

Elsewhere in the NYPost.com: July 3, 2001 -- THE stunning ruling by the state Court of Appeals in favor of the lesbian plaintiffs in the Yeshiva case is bad news for those who believe the traditional family is the bedrock of a morally sane society.

"If this point of view were to prevail and be imposed on the university, the real consequence would be much broader than gay rights. It would further weaken the idea that we, as a society, are even permitted to do anything to recognize marriage," said David Blankenhorn, president of the Institute of American Values, a Manhattan think tank.

Gossip

Flashman says three porn stars from the 1990s have called him to say their junior-high school children are being teased unmercifully at school.

Porn Survivor writes: luke, this meni character was seen by me at the recent show dealing ecstasy tabs. At the players ball I saw him give tabs to a blonde guy with jenna along with jenna, along the back stairs. No cash changed hands. Some other people I did not recognize came by and I then saw an exchange of money.

I heard that is how he hooked up with jenna and her crew in the first place about a year ago as he was supplying them with tabs at no charge. My buddy was staying in the suite across from meni and said people were going in and out of there constantly. They were staying for no more than 5 minutes.

Meni replies: Lies. ask Rick of clubjenna. no one came to my suite. I don't deal. luke what floor was i on this is a joke hee hee. Lie, What was my room number? I remember my number does he? across there room was some guys shooting porn. I had no one come to my room to buy drugs This is crap from Brad Shaw's camp, for sure.

Rob Spallone Says He Has David Moore's Two Girls

Rob Spallone phoned Monday afternoon: "The two girls David Moore is looking for? They're with me. They've been with me all weekend. The two girls that disappeared on him that were on Nick's [Pinkowski] shoot. Jody Moore and friend. They're in Las Vegas with me right now. The two foreign girls are with Rob Spallone. They're petrified of him. So I let them stay at my friend's house for two night and now I have them in Vegas. Brooke Lane leaves for New York tomorrow."

Quasarman Updates His Site

From QuasarmanRants.com: Day one started out poorly. The always reliable and punctual Bobby Vitale did something completely out of character and failed to show up for work without even so much as a phone call (I hope everyone can detect my sarcasm). Previous attempts at booking Bobby for video work have found him either in jail or in the shadow of his girlfriend and Vivid girl Briana Banks but against our better judgement we wanted to give him another shot because when he does actually turn up he is one of the industry’s best male performers. Now may be the time to exercise the option of tough love.

Last scene up featured the beautiful Stevie partnered with the awkward looking Mark Wood. It was during this scene that I called out things like "How’s my focus" and "How’s the light" only to be met by silence. It seems that my producer Michael Adams had nodded off at the video monitor that he was supposed to be keeping watchful vigil over due to his being out all night with persons of ill-repute the previous evening. At any rate, Mark blew a load in her eye and I drove home through the winding streets of the Hollywood Hills satisfied that I had contributed yet another pile of beauty destined to be used as a masturbatory aid by some gentleman whose wife is now overweight and frigid.

Was Brooke [Lane] drinking? Witnesses will only say that she was acting "strange" but in this reporters opinion if she was not in fact drinking she was probably THINKING about drinking. I also heard that Ms.Lane pulled the ultimate in inconsiderate, selfish acts – she sampled each and every item at the craft service table with a mouth fresh from fellatio before any of the crew had eaten. Yes, it seems that during a break from the oral portion of her scene Ms.Manners went from entrée to entrée spooning everybody’s lunch into her selfish, post-pud polishing mouth… pieces of food falling back into their containers ….the same spoon coated with her tainted saliva diving deep into a communal dinner tray.

Luke says: I got a call from Brooke Lane denying Quasarman's vicious accusations.

Brooke says: "I just got off the phone with Rob Spallone about McCormick's comments. It is obvious that Quasarman is completely obsessed with me because he continues to create amazing lies about me. He's obviously infatuated with me. Confirmed sources say that he's completely in love with me.

"I did a feature for Nick Pinkowski. I have Quasarman to thank for that. Because of his lies, people have been calling me left and right with job offers in features. Somebody [Scooby] from his [Quasarman's] set was there filling in [for Nick]. Nick asked me if I wanted him to ask Scooby to leave and I said, 'Absolutely not.'

"I'm tired of all Quasarman's bulls--- and I'm tired Luke, of you putting it up."

Luke: "It's funny."

Brooke: "Yes, it is funny."

Luke: "Where did he get this story about the craft table?"

Brooke: "I don't know. I was on the set. I was eating dinner. And it has to be from Scooby. I wasn't fired from Mike's Metro set. I walked. I walk off sets that don't treat me respectfully. I have a reputation for that. I will continue to do that because I am not putting up with s--- from this business. Particularly not from somebody like him who started out as Bud Lee's stock boy."

Mike McCormick aka Quasarman replies: One more time for old time's sake.... Brooke Lane, I fired your drunken, disagreeable poodle-headed ass!!! You did not quit!! and you do not have a reputation in this business for walking off of sets where you are treated disrespectfully. You have a reputation for being a dumb-ass warmed over hooker with both an attitude and a drinking problem. I have heard NO ONE say a kind word about you since you've been out here in LA on your hiatus from escorting back in Florida. I want you to LEAVE THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA!!! Suck penis elswhere!!!! As for your comment about being Bud Lee's stock boy, I wasn't aware that Bud was the proprietor of a convenience store. Stock boy? What the f--- does that mean? Put down the bottle and gather your thoughts before you shoot your mouth off next time. It's time for idiots like you to understand that we who toil behind the camera in this business will no longer tolerate your infantile, primadonna antics. Show up sober, do your job and go home. That's the totality of your responsibility. Write that on the back of your hand so you don't forget... and don't ever make me write an email this long to Luke F-rd ever again!!!!!! I could have used this for my own site!!!!

Brooke Lane replies: Wow, he's so affected by me. It is adorable. I want to thank him for the ton of work he's gotten me. And I want to know how it feels for him to have no college degree and no options in life except to be a low on the totem pole porn director. Because I do have a college degree by the way and I do have other options. I got my degree in Sociology with a minor in business administration from a private university, one of the top ten in the country. I do have other options. I'm just having such a good time f---ing with people like him. I just wanted to say that I love you Mikey and I hope you're having a good time with all this because I sure am. I'm amazed and impressed how much time he spends writing about me.

He also said that nobody in LA likes me. Well, several people have called me for work, so it is obviously not true. But Rob Spallone and James DiGiorgio love me.

Quasarman replies: It is sad that I possess no skills other than those neccessary to be a porn director. It's just good to know that YOU have other options in life because of your impressive college degree. Many successful college graduates go on to suck cock in humid hotel rooms for booze money. I'm glad you're not letting your degree go to waste.

Several people have called you for work so it's obviously not true that you're a f---ing moron? I called you for work too. I had to find out the hard way that you're a f---ing moron. Writing about it was just my way of protecting other producers and directors from you.

In closing, Jim Digiorgio and Rob Spallone don't like you either. You're just too f---ing stupid to see it when people are laughing at you, not with you. By now you should be in New York with a strange man's unprotected penis in your mouth. Hopefully that will keep you quiet for awhile. If not, I'll be here eagerly anticipating your next drunken but college educated missive.

Alana Evans Reveals Her Side Of The Story

Porn star Alana Evans of AlanaEvans.com writes: Hey Luke; Well, it was a very strange situation. I'm not surprised that it got back to you. Everything does:) The first day I got to the show, I had to wait a while in line and they didn't have enough passes for us. Tonda was really nice to me until we got to the show. Then she was very rude and abrupt about things. Chris actually had to go to our friend's at LikeWhoa.com and they got us passes immediately.

I worked things out with Tonda and Brad at that point. So, basically I'm well over an hour late to the booth because I was stuck out front. They didn't care to help me then.

I went to work promoting for the company, Shaw Internet, by passing out their flyers. Well, Tonda informs me to only give flyers to serious customers because they only made 500. Okay, no problem. This only means I am going to spend more time talking to people, right. Well, I had a lot of fans that wanted autographs, and, well, they didn't actually hire me for that. I can't help it. I am not going to tell my fans no or ignore them. Hello....It's internet porn. I am a pornstar. I know you get it Luke.

They had a lap dance room but I wasn't doing dances. Not really my thing at a convention. I was in the room adjusting makeup and Brad asked for dances. One girl started dancing for him and I just watched. I took over and only danced one song. He gave me like 5 tickets. Apparently it was worth the admission.

I didn't know Brad and Tonda had any relation at all. I have no interest Brad. If she's jealous about the dances, get over it.

Myself and Cheryl Dynasty were fired the next day for being 30 minutes late. Cheryl actually woke me that morning because I overslept. I made it to the show in full hair, makeup, and clothing by 11:00am. And they fired me. Tonda wouldn't talk to me and neither would Brad. She just told me I needed to leave the booth, I was fired, and I needed to get out of my room. So there ya go. I had the other employees of Shaw talking s--- about me to the other girls. Pathetic is all I can say. I am not known for being a flake or unreliable but this is what Brad Shaw says of me.

I am sure they were also upset because they lost business to Matrix Content by hiring me. Matrix has tons of incredible content of me and my fans went there to buy it:)

Porn star Jacklyn Lick writes: Cheryl Dynasty came and stayed with me because he kicked her out of her hotel room that day! He stuck them in Vegas with no where to go. I would recommend no girls EVER work for a company that would leave you stranded like that. I don't drink or smoke, and Cheryl doesn't even drink alcohol. I know for sure she was not 'cracked out' on anything. So, that excuse is lame.

I saw Alana and Chris that morning, and they didn't look like they were on anything. What most likely happened was, they didn't make the money they thought they were going to make, and they over stepped their budget, and the woman got jealous of the porn stars (which were really the only class looking girls at their booth).

Brad Shaw responds: Alana Evans looked like crap, no make up, rolled out of bed hour and and a half late. Not to mention her boyfriend who stood in front of our booth all day. I tried to fire them the first day once I saw her and her boyfriends attitude. I must say, Matrix has some wonderful make-up people, in the shoots she did for them, she looked good, not the same girl I saw though!

Former AVN journalist Ashley Kennedy writes: So let me get this straight; Alana Evans shows up 20 minutes late, and the girlfriend (wife, whatever) of this Brad Shaw fellow (who is running amok making enemies left and right at the show between lap dances), fires her and then slanders her? And leaves Alana ass-out as far as accommodations are concerned? And Brad himself insinuates that Chris Evans is some sort of suitcase pimp/boyfriend? Huh. I can't pass this one up, Luke.

(Excuse me, Tonda, but what exactly constitutes inappropriate clothing at an adult Internet convention? Did they show up in nuns' habits? Adult diapers and tinfoil turbans?)

(I've never seen Alana throw attitude. Are you sure the attitude wasn't YOURS? I mean, from what I'm hearing, your significant other spent more time getting lap dances and being rude and ugly to the people around him than actually conducting business. Check yourself, woman.)

Wow, Tonda, to me it looks as if what was done was this: you have showed the world that you should really find someone else to write your postings, since you're far from articulate. You also violated California labor laws, by publicly announcing to Alana's prospective employers the specific reasons for her termination. Bad move. You are legally bound to reveal only the length of employment, date of termination, and whether or not you would hire her again. Or so I've been told. Don't take it from ME as gospel, Tonda. Ask your attorneys. However, the slander is clear-cut, and carries both a misdemeanor charge and civil liability for you and your company. If I were Alana Evans, I'd sue the living f--- out of you for slander/libel/defamation of character.

And Brad, as far as Chris Evans is concerned, he's more than just a boyfriend; he's an adult performer in his own right… he has appeared in numerous vids as well as on several Playboy TV shows. He's hardly a useless cling-on boyfriend. As a matter of fact, when I leave Los Angeles, he will be the caretaker of my beloved surfboard…a duty I would never impart to someone that I did not hold in the highest esteem. Oh, and by the way, Tonda, my son said you are a hoo-hoo-ha-ha for treating Alana the way you did. Of course, he's not allowed to say the word "cunt" until he can drive, but nonetheless, the sentiment remains.

Brad Shaw replies: Ashley Kennedy, Tonda is out of town for the 4th. Screw California labor laws, we were in Nevada, buy a clue. I can fire whoever I want, whenever I want. She was paid for a day and a half, and only did one days worth of work, I think that is nice of me. Not to mention I did not take back her convention badge which cost me $150.BTW, Alana showed up an hour and a half late. She looked so bad, people would rather have a dance from me then her. Her overzealous boyfriend would not leave her alone to do her work. We had 2 security personal, we did not need him standing around getting in our way and distracting her. Case closed, Alana is small time, I am off to make enemies with some players.

Cosa Nostra Source Deep Within Porno Sweats Bullets

XXX writes Luke: "A guy who is in the LA Family Tommy Gambino gave Roger Clinton 50,000 to pardon his dad. Most people in the press do not know Tommy is a made guy in the LA Family. s--- is hitting the fan. Kevin Beechum is a tough guy, when around lots of beefy guys. The funny thing is Kevin confirmed he knew Louis Caruso, 44, who by the way is out of jail and is a Capo in the LA Family. So now that the FBI has confirmation, from Kevin's mouth, that Kevin knows Louis. Kevin feels the need to hide his informant status, behind his feelings about Mickey Fine. I hear ABC is going to do a MOB in Hollywood thing soon."

Luke spoke to Kevin Beech Monday morning who set him straight. And invited Luke's source "XXX" to call him at KBeech Video or stop by.

Kevin: "Louie Caruso ain't no capo of any family."

Luke: "Wasn't he involved in the Las Vegas case about the 1996 murder of mobster Herbie Blitzstein? It's an organized crime case."

Kevin: "Yeah, but they're all old timers. It's one old timer killing another old timer because he didn't pay his debt.

"Bro, before you print stuff, you should check your s--- out. You're going to get yourself killed one of these times for printing bulls---. Because somebody is going to be pissed. You can't just call someone a capo in a family."

Luke: "Then who is Louis Caruso?"

Kevin: "Bro, he's associated with them guys that were wiseguys. Pete [Milano] was a wiseguy and the boss of LA. He ain't s--- now. That's done and over with. Tommy Gambino, that's all bulls--- too. He ain't nothing. All he's got is some money and he runs around town using his last name. He ain't got no anything."

According to the Las Vegas Review Journal September 1, 1998, Kevin Beechum's friend Louis Caruso is an acting capo in Los Angeles: "Louis Caruso, whom the FBI has identified as an "acting capo" in the Los Angeles mob."

From the Las Vegas Review Journal, April 23, 1997: " The indictment accuses Peter Caruso, Stephen Cino and Louis Caruso of conspiring to obtain money and "direct or indirect ownership" of Any Auto Repair and DeLuca's loan business "by the wrongful use of fear against Joseph DeLuca.""

Kevin Beechum tells Luke: "I want to know who's telling you all this s---. Tell him to call me if he's such a tough guy bigmouth. Kevin would like to know who's saying all this s---, hiding behind his computer. Tell him I don't need no big guys next to me, he can come over to my doorstep and I'm by myself.

"Who's Jimmy Caci? Another old man. Dude, all those old guys ain't nothing. They were, for their associations with guys. Them guys are all dead and gone. All the f---ing mobsters are gone. Trust me. There ain't any.

"That's how the FBI used to have me, for association, because I knew these wiseguys. But there ain't none left. Like Mickey [Fine], he was no wiseguy. He was just associated with wiseguys.

"Even the Perainos weren't wiseguys anymore. They were has-been wiseguys. The only guy who really was a wiseguy and came around this business was Big Chris [Natalae Richichi]. The rest of the guys are just associates, like I was. Louis is just associated, that's all. He ain't no wiseguy. I don't think he's got two nickels to rub together.

"You've got to remember that all the wiseguys that have done being wiseguys all live in Las Vegas. They're all oldtimers. They have to hire guys like us to help 'em."

Luke: "Why do they retire to Las Vegas?"

Kevin: "It's cheaper to live there and they can get money through casinos...

"A buddy of mine's kid killed Herbie Blitzstein. His kid got hired by these old f---s to go do that. It was all stupid. They all got popped. Louis got two years for something else."

XXX writes: Luke, Louie Caruso is a Capo. He is not an associate. He is a MADE MEMBER of the LA FAMILY. He is not an old guy, He does not live in Las Vegas. He owns a Biz right off Topanga behind FB Productions. He Traveled to Las Vegas with another Capo Louie Gelfuso when John Bronco testified. Louie Caruso was in the back of the court house. Louie Caruso met with Capo Jimmy Caci at Club and Pasta Mia in Palm Springs, CA, didn't he propose John Bronco for membership in The LA Family. Did Louie Caruso and Tommy Gambino have a sit-down at The Sportsman's Lodge. When Louie Caruso was locked up, did he not meet with Gambino Family Loanshark Joe Isgro. Joe Isgro is on tape in LA Shylocking. Look it up. He is not old either. How is Canyon Country Louie? Do you now have Joe isgros book?

While I think Louie Caruso is a twit and a loud mouth, he is what he is. Have James H dog Adam find this. Print this please! Luke if they are nothing why does this Kevin say you should be careful? Tommy Gambino does not use his last name. Rosario "Sal" Gambino (father of Tommy Gaminbo) made Big Chris Richichi look like nothing. Sal and his brother John were leaders of the PIZZA CONNECTION drug ring. They moved more than a BILLION Dollars around the Globe. You can read about SAL and John in The Octopus or any Pizza Connection book. Tommy is a made guy in the LA Family. Kevin says guys come to him to get things done. So is Kevin is the LA Boss? He must know these guys right? Oh yeah and Fat Herbie was killed so they could take over his LOANSHARK BIZ, not cause he owed money. It is a fact, there was a Federal case and guys were found guilty. Steve Cino, Chris Richichi and Kenny Gurino of Metro were all on a case together. Kevin I come over to see you all the time. Figure out who I am!

Kevin Beech responds: XXX sucks dick for a living. He should say all this stuff to their face.

Ori writes: Mr. Ford, I love your site! This is so much better than Gayvn! You tell it! Kevin, is Donny " Shacks" Montemarano a has been? Look on ganglandnews.com. for more info. You may use my mail, also keep up the tits and ass Mr. Ford!

Joe P writes: Kevin, The big baller from Cali, why do you always refer to sucking Dick? Is it cause you are an Informant who put away Mickey Fine away? You over compensate for your own short comings as a stand up tough guy. Maybe its cause you and your buddy James H, suck each other off? Or maybe you and Frank do? Have ADAM D find out this! I love this s---, I read about all you clowns in LA everyday!

WASHINGTON, June 28 (Reuters) - Roger Clinton, former President Bill Clinton's half-brother, declined to explain to a congressional panel investigating White House pardons why he got $50,000 from the daughter of a convicted heroin trafficker.

The trafficker in question, Rosario Gambino, is a reputed organized crime figure serving a 45-year sentence in California and did not receive a pardon. But The New York Times on Thursday said a person close to Gambino's son, Tommy, said Roger Clinton had led the family to believe he could help obtain a presidential pardon.

"Whatever he said to him made Tommy Gambino think it was a lock," the newspaper reported.

"Tommy Gambino is a friend of Roger Clinton's and has been for many years," Williams said. "I'm not going to comment on what the payment is for or about. I am going to say it was not related to Roger Clinton's assisting Tommy Gambino's father in his parole efforts or any other effort."

From GanglandNews.com: Reports that Dominick (Donny Shacks) Montemarano has been canoodling lately with leggy British actress Elizabeth Hurley out in Los Angeles didn't surprise several Gang Land sources who've known the Colombo mobster for some time.

"He was always a charming, charismatic guy," said one Brooklyn guy who knew him when he was a capo under Carmine (Junior) Persico (left) during the 1980s when both were out and about. Hollywood fits Donny Shacks, who has been into disguises for a long time. "He even dressed in women's clothes a few times to do some work for Junior in the '60s," said a law enforcement source.

Montemarano and his crewmate Gennaro (Jerry Lang) Langella, the source said, wore dresses and wigs for a rubout in South Brooklyn during the bloody Profaci-Gallo war in the 1960s. (right) And Hollywood has become a second home to Hurley, who no longer hangs out with Mickey Blue Eyes actor Hugh Grant.

Montemarano relocated there in 1996 after he was released from federal prison where he served 11 years for racketeering. Two years ago, an FBI investigation of his cozy relationship with then-star UCLA quarterback Cade McNown and other Bruins football players ended with no charges being lodged.

Montemarano, now 67, was sighted in Beverly Hills dining and holding hands with the 35-year-old Hurley, who was recently voted the Sexiest Woman In The World 2001 by the English edition of GQ magazine. Their relationship may be professional, or social, or both. Some old court documents and FBI transcripts indicate that Montemarano can be Mr. Charming, who truly cares for his women and always has them in mind when opportunity knocks.

The Players Ball

CJ@Sexhit.com writes on Netpond in reply to Ron Levy: >>The Player's Ball was off the hook!! Digital Underground and Snoop Doggy Dogg were fantastic.

digital underground was entertaining... they really know how to work a crowd. I'm not a fan of any kind of rap music but digital underground put on a great show. I really enjoyed it. as for that other dude....

>>After the problems we had at the door last January, this show was different, no money was required at the door and all the folks who wanted to atttend and got there on time, got in.

we had a group of us, who had spent almost 2 hours preparing costumes, who arrived on the dot of 11pm, and we waited well over an hour to get in. several other people who arrived earlier to assure they we're in quickly waited even longer. in jan, we slipped the security guy a hundred just to let us in the door. vip passes and all. i would say this year was an improvement that most people actually got in. but waiting over an hour in line is still a pain in the ass.

>>There are many folks in our industry who do not like or appreciate RAP Music and I understand that. For that reason many people do not attend the Player's Ball. That said, the number of people from our industry that do like this type of entertainment, RAP Music, far exceeds those who don't. We had over 4,000 people attend the Player's Ball on Friday, that represents most of the folks who attended the Internext Show.

we may have attended but that does not mean we liked the overabundance of rap music. i attended because i thought it was a webmaster event. the amount of webmasters who we're there who actually wanted to hear hours and hours of unintelligable speaking to the same beat is not the 4000 who attended. although it is great that the players ball has become such a sought after public event, that does not assist our webmaster community nor does it provide an acceptable webmaster event.

I think d$ always does a great job, and its hard to appreciate the amount of work that goes into organising an event of that size. but I do think the players ball is no longer a valid webmaster event. it has evolved even more into a group of webmasters who are friends, patting each other on the back for their achievements. that's not to say those achievements are not valid or that they don't deserve to be recognised but this does not represent our industry, nor the community at large. why would an award be given to someone who is an admitted industry 'hanger on' just because he has balls? who paid for that? cybererotica's webmasters did.

apart from that single event, which everyone has a differing opinion on, this was the most productive show I have ever attended. kudos to klixxx magazine and avn for their show guides. very well researched and organised. there's too many good things to mention about the show. it was truly the best show yet.

Sam writes on Netpond: As a woman working in this business, I must say I was more than mildly embarassed by the attire worn by the women on their way to the convention. There were more than just adult industry people staying at the Venetian and in the casino. To have women walking around in sheer tops, their asses hanging out and dressed up in S&M gear was not called for. I am not embarassed of my job (behind the scenes) but I am embarassed to be affiliate with people with no respect to the patrons of the casino and hotel. There were plenty of areas that models could change near the convention and I'm shocked that the Venetian puts up with this regardless of the $ we spend there. If I was staying at a hotel on vacation with my daughter walking through the lobby of my hotel and I saw this I would complain to the hotel. It is hard enough to try and explain how my job is credible in this industry. To have models parading around dressed like ho's (in main areas of the hotel)only gives more ammo to the bible bashing porn fighters at how immoral we are. I know this business needs T and A, I'm a realist, but a public display is not the way to win any crediblity. I'm posting anon because these are my views, not the views of the company I proudly work for.

But then again my parents said the same thing about rock n roll. LOL I attended the Players Ball in January and realized that such an event wasn't for me, give me a ZZ Top concert anyday. But, my 21 yr old daughter had the time of her life and is still talking about the Players Ball today. She even has her VIP pass framed and hanging on the wall. Now I know she would enjoy a ZZ Top, Eagles, Frampton, etc concert but it wouldn't have the appeal that the Players Ball did for her. And if I were to attend the aforementioned concert it would probably have the same impact on me that the Players Ball had on my daughter. Chalk it up to a generation gap between old time stoners and young bluntheads.

"To have models parading around dressed like ho's (in main areas of the hotel)only gives more ammo to the bible bashing porn fighters at how immoral we are."

I think my first question to any bible thumper would be "What were you doing there to start with?" Vegas is the city of "anything goes" and the outrageous is expected. I was curious as to the non-convention guests reactions at the Venetian in January and watched very intently as the parade of conventioners sauntered through the hotel and casino. The reactions I saw appeared to be one of amusement. And the comments I overheard were not those of outrage or embarassment. Afterall, this is Vegas. IMO casinos are not places for children. DisneyLand is for children and families. Course I'm one of those that believe small children should never be taken out to dinner at any place other than McDonalds or Cuckie Cheeze, too. Hate it when I spend a chunk of change on a nice meal and a relaxing evening to have it disrupted by some screaming 4 yr old.

As for being immoral...this is porn. It's an industry supported by closet pervs who would never admit to having purchased a porn site membership. As much as we consider ourselves business people the prudish will never accept us as such. And as happy as I am to be a happy lil smut peddler I seriously doubt that I will ever get an invitation to speak at the local business womens associations annual luncheon. Now privately these same women would be happy to attend a private sex toy party. I'm not saying we shouldn't be viewed as serious business people because we are. But the fact is we are not viewed as such by the mainstream world. So I don't think a few women dressed as ho's is going to tarnish our image. Honestly, I've seen more nudity in Cosmopolitan than I saw in the hotel or casino.

This was not anywhere near my intention, infact it was a matter of slang on my part in a post that did not contain his name nor his company. However They feel and I feel that an apology is necessary to Evan and the XPAYS Commerce Network for what might possibly be construed as an indirect inference of it's use with Evan and within the XPAYS Commerce Network establishment. Evan has told me personally he does not smoke Crack nor endorses the use of Cocaine and objects heavily to anyone who makes use of these illegal substances. Well s--- I do not endorse the use nor use that nasty s--- my self. Infact if you happen to know anyone that does smoke crack cocaine or does cocaine please get them help. Evan, and XPAYS Commerce Network I am sorry.

Fred writes: Luke F-rd, you are in real trouble now. You have been accused of blasphemy. If these guys come by and ask me about you, I'm going to deny that I ever knew you. On the other hand, I think there is some room for a few cheap laughs here. Here are some thoughts.

1. I think we should report maryromantic.com to these guys. That article about male masturbation is to riske for me. And she purports to be an atheist. Tsk tsk.

2. You know, these guys threaten prosecution in their e-mail. I think somebody should tell them that they are in effect masquerading as law enforcement officials--something that is highly illegal. They should repend immediately by sending out e-mails to everyone and apologizing for being dishonest.

3. You know, Robert Black had a big, noisy editorial blasting Adam Glasser (Seymore Butts) because Mr. Butts allegedly tried to direct law enforcement officials towards Mr. Black. I think both these guys deserve a visit from Net Authority Investigations Dept.

4. On the other hand, you could send these folks a letter demanding that they identify all portions of your web site that constitute blasphemy or pornography. Demand that they substantiate their allegations.

Some people have way too much time on their hands. (Unfortunately, I'm probably one of them.)

Luke Talks About Himself

Luke says: Did I ever mention that the ejection from the shul was very painful for me? I can't help thinking about it frequently...but there's something I think about even more frequently. The personal rejections.

People overflowed with kindness towards me as long as it looks like I was going to become fully orthodox. And it is such a splash in the face with cold water to encounter those whose final reaction to me is, 'I don't think I want to hear from you again until you decide to become fully orthodox.'

People are just fodder for religion. I hate that. I saw that a lot as a kid with Christians who saw people as fodder for Christ. And unless you converted, they weren't interested in you. They're only interested in you if you join their religion.

After a year of praying and studying every day at my shul, now that I've been ejected, I haven't walked away with one friend. Few people inquire about how I'm doing. Once you're out, you're out. Don't let the door hit you on the way out. Good luck. Sayanora. Adios. If you don't go all the way with us on the fundamentals, you're an outsider.

XXX responds: i'm sorry to hear of your pain. a double rejection from friend and church is very hard to bear - but i guess if you want to join the club you have to go by the rules. if you choose to ignore their rules then isnt that really you rejecting them rather than vis versa - i mean you could get acceptance by both church and friend if you gave up your involvement in porn - its your choice. but maybe you are sad and hurt because they wont accept you on your terms? how would your friends be feeling? - they probably feel they have lost a friend because they thought you cherished what they cherish and now know you dont. there is no doubt that differences of opinion create distance and make friendship more difficult. which do you want most - to keep doing what you do for a living or acceptance by your church and friend? a big question!

Fred writes Luke: So, query,

1. Are you willing to sacrifice intellectual honesty for "friendship?"

[Luke says: Yes, I can keep quiet. I survived at the shul for a year because I kept quiet on these matters... It is not really intellectually dishonesty, it is more a matter of discretion. To develop friendship and community, you learn to maximize what you have in common. And some dissembling may be ok...]

2. If one sacrifices intellectual honesty to be a member of that shul, has one really attained a true friendship? Or is it something other than a true friendship--a "friendship" built on a foundation of illusion and dissembling. Is the friendship of someone who is only your friend because you fooled him really a friendship? Would it be accurate to say that this "friendship" has about as much validity as the euphoria caused by heroin?

3. What is more important--being true to yourself or friendship? (To thine own self, be true.)

4. How do you suppose Spinoza felt when he was excommunicated from his shul? 3 centuries later, his picture was put on an Israeli postage stamp by a bunch of secular Jewish zionists. Of course, 3 centuries later the orthodox still think him a heretic. Given how things turned out, do you think Spinoza would have preferred to keep his mouth shut and maintain his membership in the shul? Or would he have preferred to speak his mind?

5. Don't you think that the tight community that you seek comes at a great price? One must lose something to join that club. One must lose critical thinking. Are you willing to pay that price? Isn't that the same bargain if one wants to become a born-again fundamentalist, an orthodox jew, a hassid, a member of a cult (other than the cult of Fred, which is wisdom incarnate)? Sort of like a deal with the devil, eh? Is it worth it? (The cult of Fred holds that it is reasonable and correct to dissemble about one's views and beliefs to pursue a friendship, but only if there is greater than a 25% chance that you'll get laid.)

6. Do you have it within yourself to make that deal? To ignore what you know rationally makes sense just for mere acceptance? Can you really ignore your own perception of reality?

7. By training yourself to ignore your own grasp of reality and truth, what sort of damage are you doing to yourself? And for what purpose and gain?

8. Then again, do all friendships have some kind of a price? Isn't dishonesty and dissembling required to get along in any society? Isn't that what 75% of "politeness" is? Can any relationship between human beings withstand complete honesty?

Ya know, after I wrote the above 8 paragraphs, I re-read them. What a big pile of trite pseudo-intellectual crap. I don't think I can stomach editing this e-mail. I'm just going to click on the send button right now. But let me know what you think.

Not to belabor a philosophical point, but if I log onto a chat room, tell one of the other participants that I am a 6' tall blond woman with big breasts, and strike up a friendship, is that a real friendship? Or is it nonsense? If you tell Robert that you believe in orthodoxy, have you struck up a real friendship? Or is it nonsense?

Rumdar writes: Luke Let's be real, you were baiting these fundamentalists. Seeing how far you could push them before they grabbed you by the seat of your pants and tossed you out the door. Of course all this religious doctrine is rubbish. Impossible to believe Jesus raised the dead, turned the water into wine (Merlot, Chardenay)? parted the sea, was swallowed by the whale (oppppps! that was another guy wasn't it)? Died and came back in three days, whatever. Don't despair. You have learned all you need to know about Judaism. I believe it is time for you to switch religions again. It has been suggested you become a Buddhist. I think it is a great idea. The time is ripe. Picture yourself walking around your neighborhood with a bald dome, sandals and a saffron robe begging for alms. You would be bagging all that Asian pussy too. You could walk by your old shul and wave to xxxxxx and the xxxxxx sporting your new orange look. Think how shocked they will be. Of course in a year or two the Buddhists will toss you out just like the Jews did but that is in the future. Then you could always switch again. You admire the modesty of the fundamentalist Jewish women right? Then consider the modesty of a Moslem chick walking around with a Patagonia tent for a dress, peeking through the gauze fly door. Modesty plus. Mullah Luke. Above all never give up hope. That is what religion is all about, hope. Somewhere, someplace there is an organization that will accept Luke F-rd as one of their own. Hard to believe but possible. Pick yourself up, dust yourself off and get back into the fight.
