Is Luke Possessed by the Devil?

Ex-Cream salesman Mike Barbella responds by email to charges that he abuses drugs: "LUKE YOU f---ING SCUMMBAG you are the most irresponsible excuse of a reporter that the world has the unfortunate disohoner to hear. You will print anything that comes thru your ignorant pee brain . Then print this you dumb son of a bitch i will teach you to get your story straight . Is this a threat you ask, no luke you little f---ing maggot this is a promise . You are truly a whore who would print lies about your own mother to get attention you low life prick i will not even humor your stupiddity by responding to the shear crap that you have posted about me on this pittiful web site of yours."

Porner: "Does this ranting sound like someone who IS NOT on drugs? But be careful, he is a crazy bastard. He's the one that punched out Chuck Zane at the CES a couple of years ago."

Luke's mom fears that he may be possessed by the Devil. Fred the Jew responds: "I think I better do it. During one of Bernie's practice sessions, he accidentally became possessed by the family dog, and he's been barking at us for the past ten minutes. I finally got him to shut up by feeding him dog biscuits.

"I'd be glad to do the exorcism. I'm about half way through reading "Exorcism for Dummies", and I think I've just about got it down. I'm not sure we could do it over the phone, but I would be glad to officiate. I might need an assistant or two. (After all, the old priest in the Exorcist had Father Karras to help.) Let me know if you have any recommendations.

"Since we're not going to use the goyish ritual, holy water is out of the question, and Manishevitz is a bit to sweet. We need to come up with a substitute for holy water. Perhaps Alisha Klass could come up with something. (After all, Seymour's Jewish. How tref could that be.)

"Any way, I'm finetuning the ritual, and I'll be ready for you shortly."

Luke needs a porn star or two who would be willing to help out with his exorcism.

Lori Michaels Does Anal

Vivid girl Lori Michaels writes: Just finished two more Vivid features in April. Did seven sex scenes in one movie and four in the other. I've been wanting to do one like this, but the budget wasn't enough to do it right. The director was really nice and we put a lot of free time into it to try and get it done right.

Here are some previews of what to expect. Oh yea, I did my first anal scene. Started nice and slow and actually felt great. Always did it with the vibrators, but never the real thing.

Picture Balif 112 has a story to it. I never get to have sex in my personal life, and always fantasize about being with a woman, so I basically got out of control with the bailiff (Alexandra Silk) from Playboys's Sex Court. She told the director that she had always thought Felecia was the best at eating pussy, but now she had been done by the best. Hehe!

Playweb 176 might explain a little more. Since I never get to be with a woman, I didn't stop when my scene was done with the guy girl scene. The finished the scene, and I just looked the girl in the eyes and pushed her down and started eating her out on the couch. The photographer took a video of it for me. The look on the other girls face tells it all. Just couldn't help it, I love women.

Now make sure a check out those "natural boobs", not balloons. hehe. The video scenes from the movies I just made will be playing on my vip room web cam in the next few weeks. Had a crew member use my video camera to take some video from behind the scenes. That what these captures are from.

Web site is doing great, www.lorilive.com, and just had to buy a new server. Got a Dell of course since I'm originally from Texas.

My site is down tonight. Installing the new Power Edge server. Here is a copy of an article that Playboy did on my site in Europe. Between that and the two European television interviews that I did while at the CES show, my hits have gotten out of control on my site. I'm now running three T1's with two Dell dual Pentium 400 servers.

Halitosis Meets Mynxter

Halitosis writes: I met Ms. Tiffany Mynx today. She gave me a big wet kiss on the cheek and all day I walked around our fair city of Angels letting all see that I was kissed by a real angel - Ms. Tiffany Mynx! She put on a wonderful performance at the   "Gentleman's Club" and made sure to let all of those that attended get some special Mynx attention.

Rarely have I seen a performer make visual contact with the entire audience.
I have seen two of the greatest perform now in person-Tabitha Stevens and
Tiffany Mynx, and hope to see Misty Rain soon. They are of a rare breed of performers and of the highest caliber. They are also intelligent  and don't need your negative attitude or anyone else's.

I am now certain after meeting all three that either Tiffany, Misty Rain or Tabitha Stevens will be my future wife or girlfriend.

Tiffany like Tabitha and Misty are more beautiful and nice in person than
I expected.

You should be as positive about them as they are about meeting and seeing
their fans.

I think your column should speak about how nice these ladies are. I
think more people would read your column if you were not as negative toward them.

Tiffany, Misty and Tabitha and I will prove you wrong. One day I will
get to go on a date with all of them and probably end up marrying all three of them even if we aren't Mormon's.

They are all nice and you should be too.

You are nothing but a roly-poly and tubby-flubby meany! Change your ways mister!

Unfortunately, there is currently no such thing as having an email notarized so I will hold up my right hand and attest to the fact that everything is accurate while I press the return key, so help me God.

Tiffany, Misty and Tabitha, I may be reached at: halitosis1@juno.com

We will need to go to the jewelers soon so I can have you fitted. My
friend has a relative that works in the downtown Los Angeles jewelry
wholesale district that can get me a really good deal on three diamonds
if purchased together.

Prometheus Books 30th Anniversary

Along with Lynne L-patin, Luke spent Saturday night at the local branch of the secular humanist society which was honoring Prometheus Books' 30th anniversary. Prometheus is publishing my first book A History of X.

I met Dr. Paul Kurtz, founder and owner of Prometheus who bemoaned all the lawsuit threats he gets. He did not see the humor when I regaled him with stories of how his editor red-penned my manuscript with comments like "libelous, slanderous, gossipy..."

Prometheus and other book powers are at the Los Angeles Convention Center for Book Expo America.

I met pioneering pornographers Paul and Shirley Eberle, who, during the 1970s, published such radical sex magazines as LA Star and Finger (which contained explicit child pornography, and copies sell in New York for $400 each). Through Prometheus, they've published two books on child abuse hysteria - 1993's "The Abuse of Innocence - The McMartin Preschool Trial," and 1986's "The Politics of Child Abuse."

Paul and Shirley are eager to leave their porn past behind. Paul winced when I teased him about it, and the detailed drawings of child-adult sex in his magazine Finger. Paul now believes that he should've drawn the line at such material.

Prometheus owner Dr. Kurtz says he does not like porn films because they lack plots. He wonders if I'm the guy who watches all the pornos? No way, I say. That's Pat Riley, who writes the X-Rated Videotape Guides.

A former professor of philosophy, Dr. Kurtz founded Prometheus Books (America's largest independent publisher) in 1969. Soon after he received a visit from the vice squad who heard he'd started a porn press called Promiscious Books.

Steve Allen, still sharp at age 77, spoke about the tidal wave of vulgarity sweeping through the American media.

Luke Gets Mail

As a journalist (who wants to remain anonymous), I have written a few stories about the porn world for the mainstream media. I have had a few glimpses behind-the-scenes of that world, but your website rips the whole curtain away.

I think you get a lot of grief from the industry because you see behind the thick layer of denial those those who work in it live behind. They can't really face what they do because they can't accept what they do. They call it 'adult' video, but actually their attitudes towards sex seem rather childish. They're still the junior high kids who think they're the only people who've discovered sex.

In reading your site, what scares me is how easily the women int he business can be convinced to do increasingly degrading scenes. Don't they realize that the men who run the business really hate them? I'll bet that most of the men running porn are scared s---less of women. Growing up they probably didn't even have the courage to ask a girl out, and they are wreaking their revenge in porn. They're getting even with all those good loooking girls that ignored them. Why else would they ask them to let men come all over their faces?

Entrenched male fans of porn don't seem any more enlightened. I noticed in Tuesday's report a message from a 'BCGR of RAME,' who calls Alisha Klass a 'dumb ass...cum bucket...only good for sucking cock.' I'm not familiar with her, but why such palpable hate of a woman who simply hopes to become a real actress? She may be a bit misguided, but is that enough to engender such misogynistic anger from a guy who most frequent lover is probably his right hand.

By the way, in the few porn star interviews I've done, I've noticed that they tend to overinflate the slightest bit of acknowledgement from mainstream entertainment. One star told me she was featured in an upcoming film. I learned from the producer that she was an extra. In their minds, a one line part becomes a co-starring role. They're all going back to school or becoming singers or going mainstream. I actually had one big female porn star tell me that her transition to Hollywood films would be easy since she already is a star. There never was any transition.

Let Gene Ross be the industry apologist that he is. You were on-line first. They can't stand the light you shine on them so they're scurrying for cover. I find it funny that there's even an argument over ethical behavior inside the porn industry. Rigged reviews in AVN? Do people really read reviews of that stuff? I'm shocked anyone even writes them...
