My Use Of Industry Chatboards When I first began regularly reading the Internet (December of 1996), my primary purpose was to seek out information and help for my book A History of X. The first industry person I heard from was ex-porn star Brandy Alexandre, who was no longer in the industry. I found her insulting and we began a mutually painful feud that lasted for more than two years. On alt.sex.movies (ASM), I stumbled upon the postings of Prometheus Books porn critic Pat Riley, who referenced RAME (rec.arts.movies.erotica). I began reading RAME regularly and posting on it. I had email conversations with such knowledgable persons as Riley, Mike South, Carter Stevens, Sheldon Ranz. I shared chapters of my book with people and got valuable feedback. I posted hundreds of page of my research to RAME and ASM. RAME moderators quickly decided to no longer post large sections of my work and suggested I start my own website, which I did when I bought my first up-to-date computer in July 1997. I began reading YNOT to learn about running a porn-centered website. YNOT was the gathering point for the Internet porn industry. Industry leaders such as Ron Levi and Serge Birbrair posted frequently and feuded frequently. Important industry figures posted their phone numbers. There was an openness and camraderie that has never seen its like since. Serge and more importantly Ron (because he paid me more money for a longer period of time) became my bosses through my connections with them via YNOT. In early 1998, I made news updates on RAME rather than l-keford.com, which, like my book, was more interested in industry history than industry news. That changed in early 1998 with porn's string of HIV-positives. With my Marc Wallice scoop April 22nd, I began posting daily updates to the front page of l-keford.com. Suddenly l-keford.com became a gathering point for the video industry, as YNOT became for the Internet industry in 1996. I kept my site humming by posting the best stuff I could get from any source. Much of it came from RAME (I had the permission of the leading posters there). For months, I kept posting my best scoops on RAME because it had long been an online home for me. But about a third of the time, moderators rejected my contributions for various reasons, and by the end of 1998, I was rarely posting on RAME. Other feisty people had a similar experience, and reduced their posting. I kept harvesting the site until selling l-keford.com in August of 2001 In May of 1999, I began seriously covering the internet side of the industry (until then my interests in internet chatboards had primarily been based on securing my own income). Until 1999, the Internet and Video industries were regarded as more separate than similar. By the summer of 1999, Netpond (thanks largely to Serge Birbrair) had become the main Internet posting board and YNOT went downhill (heavily moderating posts while Netpond was wide-open and dramatic). While I was gone from the industry, I was sent interesting links about myself on this upstart board www.gof---yourself.com (GFY). When I began following industry chatboards again in late 2002, I first looked to Serge Birbrair's creation Oprano. Then the overwhelming number of posts on GFY grabbed my attention and that has been my first place to look for webmaster chat since early 2003. While Brad Shaw's 2004 creation www.justblowme.com does not have nearly as many posts as GFY, it sometimes has better quality. Oprano, YNOT and Netpond rarely break news anymore. In 2000, I noticed that the primary place for video/DVD players to post was no longer RAME but the heavily moderated AdultDVDTalk. Its moderators invited me to cut and paste from their board and often sent me emails alerting me to interesting threads. When RAME abandoned moderation in 2003, I shed no tears. I found much of its moderation heavy-handed. After the spammers took over after the end of the moderators, it became useless. XXXporntalk folks often send me links to their wide-open threads (moderation is much rarer on XPT than ADT). There is much less reverence on XPT and frequently hysterical rants by folks like Smiling Arab and Smelly Monkey. But there are more threads with value about the business of the business on ADT and far more porn star posters. Here's the order I read the boards today: GFY, JBM, XPT, ADT, www.theeroticreview Fewer than one percent of the posters I quote complain about my republishing their work as I always link back to the original thread. Boards are happy that I am sending them traffic in exchange for quoting their contributors. There's nothing they can do about it anyway as there's virtually no economic value to what I quote. While sometimes I exceed the Fair Use doctrine and violate copyrights (by not getting the explicit permission of the individual posters), there's no economic loss suffered by the posters and hence no reason to pursue a legal case against me. And none of the owners of the posting boards in the last six years have asked me not to quote from their boards.

Paul Fishbein Exclusive On Keri Sable
Memorial For Clive McLean Friday Afternoon Larry Flynt is throwing it at the Bel Air Hotel. Jersey Jersey Jaxin Katie, Jersey Katie, Jersey Jersey, 23, is from Texas and is represented by Nasty Modeling. I meet her at Tuesday night's Porn Star Karaoke, April 5. She stands 4'11". In porn a month, she's done about 20 scenes. Katie Gold and Shay Sweet (who are both from Texas) discovered her. Katie: "Shay got into a business deal with a bar. They were going to open a bar. And this is the bar manager. Shay hired her as local folk and then told her what we do for a living. [Jersey] said, include me. So we brought her out here to Nasty Modeling." Duke: "And ruined her life." Katie: "She was ruined before I got there." Duke: "What motivated you to get into the industry?" Jersey: "Shay seemed really happy with it. I'd known Katie from back home too. Katie always talked good. I thought, why not? My family's behind me on it." Duke: "What do you mean?" Jersey: "All my family and friends know." Duke: "And they're ok with it?" Jersey: "Yeah. I have a very understanding family. They love me." Duke: "How is the reality of the industry compared to what you expected?" Jersey: "It was a shock. My first two scenes, I didn't know what to do. I just stabilized and went along with what everyone else was doing. After that, I was like, throw me in. I'm ready to go. "My first scene was two guys and me [but not a double penetration, she's saving her backdoor for a later date]. My second scene was doing two Violations on Gia and Heather." Duke: "What's a Violation?" Jersey: "It's what Extreme does. Fisting the girl. Massive butt plugs and dildos going in every hole they've got at the same time. Just pounding it." Duke: "Have you had any bad experiences?" Jersey: "One. That was during the first scene. The guy. I refuse to work with him anymore." Duke: "Did you punch him?" Jersey: "No. I just grinned and beared it to get it over quicker. Then, when I was walking out the door, I was like, I'm not working with him anymore." Duke: "What are you doing with all your money?" Jersey: "Get a house this week [in Los Angeles]. Get a car. I've been helping my family with their bills." Duke: "What are your ambitions?" Jersey: "I'm already done with college. I got an associates in Interior Design. I'll do this for a few years and then I'll have a nice little business." Duke: "Are you married?" Jersey: "I'm divorced. I'm happily divorced." Duke: "Do you want to become famous?" Jersey: "That's the plan. That's one of the whole things of getting into it aside from being able to get laid all the time." Duke: "How many men have you slept with in your life?" Jersey: "That's discrimination." Jersey, who lost her virginity at age 14, was a cheerleader in highschool and college. Duke: "What kind of crowd did you hang out with in highschool?" Jersey: "A crappy crowd, I guess." Duke: "Have you learned anything from your time in the industry?" Jersey: "To be real careful. To watch your back. You always find out who your friends are when money comes around." Duke: "You learned all that in a month?" Jersey: "Yep. I've had boyfriends from years ago call me and ask me...[for money]." VCA Party For Eon McKai's Kill, Girl, Kill Brooklyn Zoe Mathews Brooklyn, Zoe Brooklyn, Zoe Brooklyn, Zoe Brooklyn, Zoe Felix Vicious Felix Veronica Jett Veronica Gram Ponante, Keiko Gia Jordan, Missy Monroe Gia, Missy Gia Jordan Tawny Brie Tawny Brie Tawny Tawny 6pm. April 7. Barney's Beanery (near La Cienega and Santa Monica Blvds). I have a scheduled dinner with Nick East. 6:08pm. No sign of Nick. I call him on my cell phone. He's forgotten the time. 6:45pm. Nick arrives. I feel sulky because he's late, but Nick is so good-natured, I quickly lose my sulkiness. Nick tells me about his adventures installing satellite dishes over the past three years. He gets to see parts of his customer's lives that they normally keep hidden, such as their porn collections. Even though the collectors often have crosses and religious artifacts around the house and young children. I ask Nick if he's ever had sex with any of his customers. "No," he laughs. "It's not like it is [portrayed] in porno." None of his customers have asked him if he is porn star Nick East. One coworker, however, said he looked like Nick East "but that he couldn't be Nick East because Nick lived in a mansion in Los Angeles." "I wish," said Nick at the time. I suggest to Nick we walk the four-blocks-or-so to the party at 7702 Santa Monica Blvd. "It must be around Crescent Heights," I say. We set off walking and the numbers on Santa Monica don't diminish as rapidly as I had predicted. It's only once we pass the Tomkat theater that Nick looks back and realizes it is a gay porn place. He says it could be used on Fear Factor. Put a bunch of heterosexual men in the theater and see who can last the longest. We end up walking about 14 blocks before arriving at the club, which is several blocks east of Fairfax. It's a 20-minute walk. When I get into Eon McKai's party, I see Keiko and Graham Ponante locked in a serious discussion. I stroll over. Graham looks up at me: "This is a conversation that should be happening to you." Keiko: "Luke's never hurt me." It takes me a minute and then I remember the way Graham cut down Keiko's performance of a song at Porn Star Karaoke. Half an hour later, I ask Keiko how the discussion went. "I made him feel really sh----," she says. Tawny Brie has yet to shoot her first scene. She works as a stripper in Las Vegas. "I love the attention." She's had sex with girls and guys off-camera. Tawny: "In highschool, I was a good girl. I went wild after I graduated." Duke: "What happened?" Tawny: "I moved away from my parents." I leave the party at 9:45pm, just before the public is allowed to buy their way in, and see Terri Redor outside. He walks down Santa Monica Blvd with me. We pass the Tomkat. Terri describes all sorts of horrible scenarios for using the Tomkat in Fear Factor. I tell Terri I gave a mini-sermon on Jonah in Thursday's column. Terri: "I read those two lines. It's what H.L. Mencken said: 'If you want to know a man's character, see how he makes a living." We both erupt into painful laughter. Terri says if you are on Santa Monica Blvd on Halloween, hang out at Barney's Beanery if you want to meet drunk hetero chicks. Once we get to La Cienega, Terri notices a lot of attractive women in cars eyeing us. He says they're probably hookers. I didn't know hookers drive around and look for johns (in West Hollywood and on Venice Blvd near Lincoln). Duke: "Look, you can see my van from here." Terri: "You sound like Jesus to the apostles. In my father's mansion, there are many parking spaces." Duke: "Lo, I go to prepare a place for you, so that where I am,
you may be also." My van frightens Terri. He says it looks like a dog catcher van. He says people will think that we're looking for transsexual hookers to kidnap and torture. Terri has a hard time getting the seatbelt to fit. He's too fat. Scott Fayner would have no trouble. I only date slim chicks. I start slamming on my water bottle. Terri reaches down for the female seatbelt receptor and finds some jumper cables. He wonders if I use them to strangle people or to play kinky sexual games. "Aligator clips? You're ready to party. What's this gasoline for? Pills? Facemasks?" Duke: "I've got to stop here and do a quick bank robbery." As I drop Terri off at The Parlour Club, 7702 Santa Monica Blvd, I see actor Hal Sparks walking by. Thieving Webmasters

Cherry Boxxx Forgives Daisy Fuentez Despite flaking on Monday's shoot, Daisy has been signed to a non-exclusive six-picture deal with Cherry Boxxx. I Want To Return To Eden World Modeling talent call. Tuesday afternoon. April 5, 2005. Eden says her breasts sprouted in third grade. "They're as much of a curse as blessing." Annie Body: "I had to wait until I bought mine." Duke: "What keeps you in the industry [after five years]?" Annie: "I love it. Some of us just belong here." Duke: "When did you realize that?" Annie: "Back in kindergarten. I just knew it. I've been in the adult business for many years. When I got to Los Angeles, I said, 'I'm home!'" Some producer says to Annie: "I'm sorry it didn't work out." Annie: "Don't worry about it. Make it up to me." Annie got into trouble in highschool. "I didn't necessarily want to go to class. I got into trouble for smoking. I got into trouble for playing with boys. I got into trouble for playing with girls." Annie spent one day in a reform school before they kicked her out. "I got into books and learned and got my GED and got back into books and learned some more and did a bit of college and decided school wasn't my thing. But I enjoyed learning. My nose is still in the books. Lately it's been mostly computer stuff. Graphic design [on her site www.anniebody.com] and animation. I do my own html. I was dating someone who did [html] professionally and I learned a lot from them." Several people ask me if Scott Fayner is really dead (as an April First posting on l-keford.com said). No, it is not true. Scott lives. It was an April Fools posting. Autumn Bliss gets on the phone with Ed Powers and schedules a scene. I talk to Saskia Steele, who appears in her late thirties. She's half-American and half-Dutch. She has a strong accent. "I did some mainstream modeling when I was younger. I wanted to challenge myself [through porn]." She's done about 50 scenes. "It's made me less self-conscious. There's no embarrassment. I'm comfortable being in front of people. "[Porn] was much easier than I expected. I expected people to be more harsh and not accepting. I know I'm not typical. I'm not 18 and blonde. I found that when you are on set, everyone tries to insure that you have as smooth and good time as possible. I didn't expect everyone to be friendly and polite. I work on commercial sets. I didn't expect a set for pornography to have the same kind of feeling but it does." Natasha is about 40 years old. She and her husband got into porn when their agricultural pump company got beat out by competition from China. Needing money, they entered porn two months ago. I'm told that when Ron Jeremy pulled up beside World Modeling, he whined that he couldn't get a parking meter with unused minutes on it. Ron is more careful about saving his money than any porn star I know. Summer and Craig say they're taking him to a buffet dinner. I ask Celestia Star why there are so many British porn stars. "Because everyone is so repressed over there," she says. "It's raining all the time. It does something to the libido." Jackie Brown shows up at 4:30pm, after the casting call had finished. I have a long chat with Eden, who's about 33yo. She says she's dealt with nothing but nice people in porn. She stands 5'8" barefoot. She laughs. "Guys aren't used to looking at somebody in the eye." From Louisville, Kentucky, she worked as an interior designer for 11-years before "I had a mid-life crisis. I turned 30 and woke up one day and decided I wanted to do something different. I'd always had this crazy fantasy about being a stripper. It was the ultimate sexual power thing. So that became my goal. I started working on my body and lost a lot of weight. I did an amateur night one night at a strip club and won. They offered me a job. I started working. After three months, I was making three times as much money as I was with my career so I quit the career and started dancing fulltime. "I ended up coming out to Las Vegas as a tourist. I ended up falling in love [with Vegas]. I figured that if you can be a dancer in Vegas, you must be pretty ok. So I went home, packed up all my stuff, and came to Vegas. "I have a man. I've been married for 14-years and been with him for 18-years. He loves [Eden working in sex]. He's fascinated by it. What guy wouldn't be? He loves to watch me because it excites him. "We're not really swingers. He's known that I like girls eversince we started dating [at age 15]. We occasionally like to have fun. Let's leave it at that. "[Porn] was a fantasy. I was working for a company at the AVN convention [in January 2005]. I was swamped by producers. They followed me into the bathroom. They followed me to my car. I couldn't breathe. There were crazy people wanting to talk to people and have me do stuff. It was overwhelming. "The next day, my phone was ringing off the hook. I start calling people back. I'd ask for their websites. I wanted to see what quality it was. I consider myself a topnotch girl. I don't do anything that is not the best. I wasn't going to do anything that I'd have second thoughts about. "I knew somebody who worked here for Jim. I talked to her. I started calling people back. Within a week, I'd done five films in five days." Eden wears a 38DD bra but her measurements are 42D-30-41. "The hourglass." Duke: "What are your ambitions?" Eden: "I want to be famous." Duke: "How has your time [in the sex industry] affected you?" Eden: "I don't think it has affected me at all. I'm very smart. I'm very grounded. I'm a very good person. I'm as clean as a whistle. I've never touched a drug. I'm not a drinker. I'm the furthest thing from the stereotype for strippers and porn stars. "The main thing I've learned is that everybody is so critical of themselves and there's really nothing wrong with you. I'm so hard on myself, yet everybody likes me just the way I am. That's been a nice thing to realize. "[Sex work] has been good for my self-esteem. Mentally. Emotionally. Yeah." Duke: "What about your view of men?" Eden peals off in laughter. "You don't want to go there. "I told you I have a power trip thing. Women definitely have the power. Men are just too stupid to realize it. Doing this you are exerting that power over a lot of people and they don't even realize it. Sex is such a powerful thing and girls are the ones in control. "Everybody is weak in ways. "I have a small group of friends who know what I do. Beyond that, I don't tell people. When people ask me what I do, I still tell them that I am an interior decorator. Nobody raises an eyebrow at that. Sometimes when I tell people I am a stripper, I instantly get bad looks and nasty attitudes." The inability to tell people honestly what you do for a living is one of the biggest prices paid by those in the sex industry. It isolates you. Your world becomes constricted. When you can't interact honestly with strangers and acquaintances, you become a practiced liar. That exacts a huge price on your soul and psyche. You lose much of what it means to be human -- to interact honestly with others and to put yourself forward into the world openly. To be who you are. Instead, many of us in the sex industry become practiced deceivers. One of the first questions that the sailers in the Biblical book of Jonah ask the protagonist is -- what do you do for a living? That's typically our opening question with strangers because it tells us more about a person than any other question.
Eden: "People in general look down on you for it because they think you are the stereotype. You are the whore. You are the druggie. You are the alcoholic. You are doing crack in the back dressing room between dancers. That's not what I am. I don't tell a lot of people about what I do because I don't want the negative feedback that comes with it. "I haven't told many people at all that I do the porn stuff because you get even worse reaction from that. "My family knows that I was a dancer. Initially my mom was just furious beyond belief. Her crying and everything that you would think a mom would do. Then, after a while, after I told her I'm not into drugs and I'm not a drinker, I'm not doing anything bad. I'm careful and smart about what I do. Then she realized she didn't have to worry about me. I wasn't going to fall into that dumpster that a lot of girls fall into doing that. I'm smarter than that. I'm better than that. I refuse to let that happen to me. "After talking to her about, after two years, she came around. She's to the point now where she calls me and says, 'Are you on your way to work? Did you have a good night last night?' "When I told her how much money I made dancing, she couldn't believe it. "But doing the porn thing, I don't know if that would go over as well. But maybe eventually. It would still the same scenario. She'll think about all the stereotypes... Eventually she's going to know. It will all hit the fan. The first movie I filmed comes out this week. Somebody is going to see me and eventually my friends and my family will know. We'll deal with it at that point. I know that I haven't done anything wrong. I respect myself. I hope they will do the same." Duke: "What are you ambitions?" Eden: "I want to be famous. I want to be known." Duke: "What would you like to be known for?" Eden: "For being a beautiful person. Not necessarily just on the outside. You can look at the pictures of all these beautiful girls on the wall and some of them are complete idiots. Some of them are bitches. I would definitely like to be known, not just for what I look like, but for what I am on the inside. And for being good at what I do." Duke: "Does being a dancer and a porn star help people appreciate what's on your inside?" Eden: "Sometimes. Initially, most people judge you for the package. They judge the big boobs. Instantly you're an idiot. Whereas I'm probably a whole lot smarter than they are." Duke: "How do you spend your money?" Eden: "I want to be debt free. I want to pay off my car, my house, my mom. "Then I want to do what they do here -- promote people in a healthy and clean way. There's so much money to be made." Integrating Men And Women In Police Cars = Divorce And Immorality "Mr. [Ed] Koch broke the standards of kedusha (holiness) by forcing the police department to integrate men and women in patrol cars, which resulted in many divorces." (JP) You stick me or any other red-blooded man in a patrol car with an attractive woman and have us spend many of the most exciting hours of our week alone together and you're likely to have illicit sex and divorces. If I become successful, I'm only going to only have homely women and men around me. You may ask -- whatever happened to self-control? Well, when it comes to sex with beautiful women, most men don't have any. What prevents us from having more of it is lack of opportunity. Luckily for my morals, I have "loser" tattooed across my forehead, which makes it much easier for me to live up to the teachings of the Bible. What type of men become sexual predators? Those who can. Porn Sucks
Austin Shaw, Betty Ogden - All-American Porno Couple From Colorado Ready To Disgrace Their Race, Religion And Class For Good Times On Camera Austin, Betty Austin, Betty Austin, Betty Austin, Betty Austin, Betty Austin, Stacey I can't get over this couple. They look like the most wholesome people in the world. From Colorado, they give new meaning to the phrase "rocky mountain high." Yet they are doing porn. They've done some shoots in the Mid-West but none in Los Angeles yet. I meet them at World Modeling's talent call Tuesday afternoon. Austin has a masters degree in Fine Arts and Betty, the captain of her highschool and college cheerleading teams, has a bachelors degree in International Relations. I don't think that having sex with African men on camera is exactly what her college had in mind for her. Where have we as a society gone wrong? Whatever happened to bourgeois values? To the notion that proper people, people of good breeding and high class, do not soil themselves by performing in pornographic movies? Have we no shame? I fear that we are defining deviancy down at a time when our civilization demands the raising of moral standards, not the lowering of them. While Arab women use their vaginas as cannons, our women use them as playthings (credit Chaim Amalek). I longed to discuss these matters more deeply with Austin and Betty , and as they were stuck in a hallway with me waiting to be seen by Craig Valentine and Summer Haze, they had no bloody choice but to talk to me and smile at my camera. After waiting for an hour, they finally got in to see Craig and Summer. They were immediately told that they should show up the next day for a shoot. But Austin and Stacy have to plan these things many days in advance. So it turns out that they had to talk to me for a long time, wait even longer in line, and all for nothing more than the tawdry thrill of seeing their lives and choices disected on my website. Oh, the horror! The horror! Our conversation was uneventful. The hallway was too cramped, the atmosphere too pressured, the circumstances too strange, to be able to openly share what was on our hearts. Austin and Betty first went out in highschool. They began dating steadily in college, seven years ago. They began to experiment in private with cameras and recording their most intimate acts. This led to their desire to appear in porn. Soon they'll be selling their bodies and souls on Sunset Blvd for a quick fix. Only I can save them. Only by the power of my words will they see the light. Only if they follow me, can they live forever. OK, maybe that last one was an exaggeration. Austin has at least one tattoo to demonstrate in his own flesh how the debased values of the lower class have penetrated the mores of the university educated. Austin turned in at least one pornographic photo shoot (starring himself and his wife, note the lighting, composition and the nature of the wife's vagina) for credit towards his masters. Betty has dimples. When she smiles, I see lines of perfect white teeth. When she smiles, my heart leaps. When she smiles, my fingers long to dance over my keyboard. Austin says he would not feel intimidated if his old lady, his ball-and-chain, worked with someone with a bigger package. "I'm sufficient," he says pithily. Austin and Betty say very little. I find it difficult to unlock their hearts so they can take in my wise teachings. Say you, say me. Say it for always, that's the way it should be. Austin and Betty have not done black people on camera yet but due to their elite education they seem open to race-mixing. Yes, I am so dull that I am reduced to the lowest level of race baiting. No matter how obnoxious my questions, my interview with the couple is so boring I can't bear to listen to it to even begin transcribing. I'm having a bad day. I can't even get anything interesting out of my 18-year old friend Jordan Taylor, she of the blonde hair and big breasts. I say to the couple: "You guys are so nice, it's hard for me to abuse you. I want to be Mid-Western." Jordan hasn't eaten all day. I talk to Yumy. From Japan, the 24-year old has lived in America for a year. Why is she in porn? Because she likes "money and sex." Major revelation. I'm off my game. I can't get any interesting responses to my questions. I just bumble around and feel claustrophobic. I record hours of inane stupid interviews. How can I mix all afternoon with the cognitive elite, yet come away with nothing? When all else fails, go to ADT, cut, paste. Cuddly Wombat writes about Penny Lane: "It makes you wonder whether she was high when she filmed all those hot scenes that I like so much. If so, that is very disappointing, although probably understandable given the raging party life that many people in the adult business are drawn into." Cohen: Kremen Will Never See Penny One

Women R Wild Clubstyle Atlantic City I'm watching this DVD put out by Bizarre Video. I see Dennis DeSantos, formerly of Bizarre Video, now with Extreme Associates, driving the girls around. Dennis got beat up for allegedly telling me about Mob guys Craig Marino, Nicky Glasses, John Baudanza and their porn connections through Bizarre Video. When I met Dennis at the Extreme booth at the AEE in Las Vegas in January, he didn't appear happy to see me. In the DVD, you see him dirty dancing with Tabetha Stevens. Blonde nude model "Tiffany Stevens" (real name Michelle) get into the limo carrying a PDA (right before Tera Patrick). She was in the Playboy issue of the girls of MCI/Worldcom. She went to New York. She got into the lives of various gangsters. She claimed she wanted to get into escorting but then got scared and backed out. She went to a meeting (feast of Little Italy) with members of the Colombo crime family at a private party at a restaurant downtown. She starts asking everyone for their names and occupations and how they know each other. There were about 50 gangsters there along with Tabetha Stevens and Michelle. After that, the woman disappeared. I see Dayton with three mobsters -- John Baudanza with his arms around her, Nicky Glasses (each around 36yo) and Keith Gordon (mid-40s) of Bizarre. John wears a New York Yankees shirt. He wears thick glasses. Him and Nicky are part of the "goggles brigade." John gives a thumbs up to the cameraman in the DVD. You can't see his face in the shot. The common uniform for young gangsters like John is pro sports apparel. Since JKP booted Bizarre, Keith has had a hard time restarting Bizarre Video. In New York, Keith Gordon was repeatedly warned by his connections not to get into business with Jill Kelly Productions. That they would scam him. Keith moved anyway to Los Angeles and came acropper. Tera Patrick got $3,000 to host the video. Tabetha Stevens earned $2,000. And the other porn girls -- Nina Hartley, Alexandra Silk, and company earned $1,000 each. Marty Rothstein's girlfriend girlfriend Background on Marty and Ted Rothstein. Marty is in his seventies but his girlfriend is in her twenties. Marty has a niece named Georgette. She's a stripper and drug dealer at the Hustler Club in New York.

I stop by World Modeling at 11:20am Tuesday. I see Summer Haze and Craig Valentine. I meet their funder for this swingers series -- Kevin Smith, a big swinger in San Diego. Kevin funds On The Flop Productions, Mystery Productions, and the line Couples Fantasies. Summer, 41, wears tight black pants and a white shirt. "I'm in my director's mode," she says, "not my talent dress. I think I might like directing more. It's easier." She's spent 20-years in the business. Kevin and Craig do paperwork with Jim South for their four days of shooting. Kevin is slender and bald and of medium height. He's spent three years in porn. For the past twenty years, he's owned a company that provides adult (not porn) vocational education. Kevin met Craig when Craig worked as talent in a Couples Fantasy scene. Their eyes met across the room and the rest is history. Summer tells Kevin about me: "Watch out for him. He tries to pry information." Kevin has an office in Jim South's building. Kevin tells Jim: "I know nothing. Absolutely nothing." Jim pulls a shooting permit for Kevin and provides third-party liability insurance (which costs Jim $7,000 a year). That package runs shooters about $300 a day. Summer tells Craig not to write on a sheet for the talent because nobody will be able to read it. "I got a degree in robotic engineering," says Craig. "Not in handwriting." I ask Jim if he slips his card to attractive waitresses. Jim says no. He did do that when he had a modeling school 30 years ago. Jim says the only time he has given his World Modeling card out to attractive civilians was when he was with a group of people and he gave the card to the youngest member of the group to give to the woman. Jim Jr will never do such a thing. He's too shy. He won't even go up to people at a porn party. Jim South Jr doesn't look very shy with his girlfriend Holly Wellin. Talent such as Calli Cox have asked Jr to carry their picture around at a talent call and show it to the producers. Jr refused. The purpose of these meat markets is for producers to see the talent in the flesh. In the industry six weeks, Sophie Dee has done about 20 scenes. She returns to England in two weeks. Rob Spallone joins us for lunch. He says Alex Sanders called him because Christgen Wolf (in porn in 1998) had called looking for Rob. Rob has rented out some expensive homes in the past to shoot porn. His shooting houses have been surrounded by multi-million dollar homes. Many of their owners were not thrilled to have a porn house next door. "If I had a two-million dollar house," says Rob, "I wouldn't want people shooting porn next door." Rob holds forth on the economics of porn shoot to Kevin and Craig. They can barely get a word in edgewise. Summer Haze is desperate to get an AVN award. She wants to be at least nominated for her directing. There's a lot of male talent at the casting call who've never done a movie. Among them is Joey Lawford who has relatives in the business. I walk back from lunch with him. Temptation is Joey's cousin. She's been in and out of the industry for years. She used to be the girlfriend of Lee Stone. Joey says about Rob Spallone: "The man is huge." In Bill Margold's office, I run into my fave Autumn Bliss (formerly Veronica Bangg and Amber) along with her friend Vivica Charms and three other girls. "I read what you wrote on the internet," Autumn says. "That I look like a druggie. Thanks." Duke: "I didn't write that." Bill kvells as the girls help each other change. Bill: "What breaks my heart most about this one (Autumn Bliss) is that she is someone [Jim] Holliday would've worshipped. She played soccer for ten years. And she loves sunglasses, which is one of Holliday's quirks. It absolutely breaks my heart that Holliday didn't have a chance to meet her." Duke to Autumn: "I wrote absolutely nothing about you looking like a druggie." Autumn, mollified: "Ok, good." Bill: "This is cool these chicks helping each other dress. This is a family event. This is what I believe more than anything else -- that we're a family. We all watch out for each other. "This is a good room full of children. You should introduce yourselves. Say your names. A happy group of children." Some of them protest being called kids. Bill: "I like the kids. They are the future of this business. Without you, we don't exist. I am, however, trying to raise the age to 21-years old to come into this business." Eighteen-year-old Vivica frowns. She's done five movies in her two weeks in the business. She followed her friend Autumn into porn. Bliss has been working almost every day. Bill doesn't like that. It's too much. "It's starting at fillet mignon and being reduced to hamburger. I started Seka as hamburger and created fillet mignon, with her help." "I've been doing a lot of magazines," Autumn explains. "And girl-girl stuff." That's not as hard on the body and the soul. Bill: "I'm worried because now they shoot up too fast. Because they do everything that comes along and a lot of the stuff is not worthy of their talent. I've given her [Autumn] a place to dance and magnify her glory over a period of time. If it comes too fast, it will overwhelm her and drown her. "Last year at this time, I was heralding the charms of Pandora Dreams. She was adorable. Now she's gone. Last year at this time, all of us were heralding the talents of Randi Wright. Show me Randi Wright now. We thought Randi Wright was the Second Coming. The woman had everything in the world going for her. She's the oldest 18-year old girl I've met in my life. We thought she was the future. Gone." Bill's following on the internet the Yankees - Red Sox game pitch-by-pitch. Bill: "Now we have Autumn Bliss. I hate to put all my eggs in one basket but there aren't any other eggs laying around. I keep hoping every time someone comes up that they will have that spark that can be nurtured into something. "One day I'm going to have to come up with the last 48 legends. We've got 52 coming out in a stack of cards in May. But where are the other stars going to come from when the industry, 17-years from now, celebrates its 50th anniversary. Year 2022. XXX began in 1972 with Deep Throat. Hopefully you will be here to chronicle it and I will too because I don't get to die until the Detroit Lions win the Super Bowl." I walk downstairs to Jr. He has everyone sign-in as they enter the building. He started the list at number 48 to make it look more impressive. So far 12 people have arrived. It's 1:20pm. The cattle call doesn't officially begin for another ten minutes. Someone needs to talk to Jack Gallagher to find out the fate of Holliday's body. Holliday's last name was something like William Carleson. He came from Scandinavian roots. "He was a Viking. He wanted to be burned up on a ship with a dog at his feet. But that wasn't working. "I still hurt three months later. I miss him. I particularly miss him right now because here's this game that I won't get a phone call about. "Holliday was my cosmic brother. A 25-year embattled friendship. I miss the man. When you get 100 phonecalls a week from the guy, you lose track... "Autumn looks a lot like Serena South, one of his last great angels." The Yankees win it in the bottom of the ninth on a Derek Jeter homerun. "This is the first casting call of the year," says Bill sadly. "That means we will probably have one more in July or August and I don't think we'll have any more after that. They're becoming dinosauric in their value. People like to have the girls brought to them. This is the last of the real centers of the universe for the industry. I love it. I liked it a lot more during the early part of last year when Rob [Spallone] was up here. I miss him tremendously. We had a really good time during the first few months of 2004, even with the crazies like Doss and Paolo. "When Mike and Rob were friends... It was a year ago that we sat in [Mike's house] on a Sunday afternoon and watched The Sopranos. The Sopranos was a microcosm of what Rob's life would become because on The Sopranos, the characters were getting divorced. "Rob was a real breath of fresh air up here. Talk about one of the livest wires in the history of this business. "The life of this building is beginning to dissipate slowly. But PAW is still here. It needs money desperately. I put the money we had into the Fred Salaff situation. We don't hear from Salaff. We don't want him to die in Panama." I talk to escort Tatum Reed. She's done four movies. She's wanted to be a porn star since she was in highschool. Fiona Rockwell is back. She did about 40 movies four years ago under a different name. She's been going to school. I meet Scarlet. She works at a whorehouse in Reno, Nevada. She's done two movies. She says the most difficult part of working in the sex industry is working out to stay in shape. "I've done the good girl thing. I have my college degree [registered nurse]. Now I'm indulging my little wild child. I've worked in a brothel [Wild Horse Ranch] for the past year." Within the first three months, she'd worked with 500 clients. She reserves bareback sex for husband. Marriage has its privileges. Scarlet got her C-cup breast implants after her third child. I meet newcomer Victoria Lane. When I ask her if I can take her picture, she peppers me with so many questions that I give up. She's nervous and jumpy. I run into Harley Rains. She entered porn in 1993. She left in 2003, had a baby and got new boob job. They now measure 38DD. Mark Kismet aka Horny Henry (a tall bloke from Britain) is directing Desperate Housewhores for LFP. He also shoots girls on a sybian machine for CDGirls.com. He says many of the girls have their first orgasm ever. "Many people put the girls on the sybian at full rate and then the girls don't like it. If it's done as a tease, very gently done, we have a 99.9% hit rate of orgasms. Real ones." Who's going to shoot the Barely Legal series for LFP now that Clive McLean is dead? Mia Smiles walks in with her boyfriend Chris Cannon. She's asked if she does interracial. "I don't know," she replies. "I don't know many Asian guys in the business." Jeremy Steele has his own documentary film crew following him around. What's going to be the final product? "I'm making it up as I go along," he says. Victoria Allure is 19 and 5' tall. She entered porn in January. "The only thing that surprised me is that the sex isn't that good. You have to pretend. I haven't had an orgasm on camera unless I did it myself." Girls coo over Eden and call her, "Amazon woman." Jonathan Morgan, a director from Wicked, walks out of the talent call disappointed in the low quality of the women. He is supposed to have said that he did not find anybody to cast. Quality was not a concern from Summer and Craig. They just wanted warm bodies to throw in their scenes. Craig Valentine and Summer Haze write Wednesday:

Wankus flew into Phoenix Monday evening for Ashton Moore's surprise birthday party. Jason Sechrest had ruined the surprise by calling Ashton (just before she was due to walk in to the party) to apologize for being unable to make it to her surprise party. Alexis Amore and her mom were at the party. Jenna didn't make it but her husband Jay Grdina and the Club Jenna team did. Fred writes:
