I arrive at 8:45pm and get my wristband from publicist Janie L.

Shy Love and a crew from Playboy's Sexcetera shows up soon after. Shy's shadowed by Rebecca Steel, who's been in the industry a week.

I run into a crew who shoot Latina porn and a weekly sex-show for satellite TV, which is about 20% in Spanish.

The man's name was Spanish for donkey (Pancho Burro). In eight years, they're released 24 movies. They don't like to rush things.

Sophia was a stripper for a few years before she met Pancho Burro and got into porn two years ago.

Luke: "How did your family react?"

Sophia: "They don't know."

Pancho: "It's a secret. We're good Catholics. We go to church every Sunday."

Gram Ponante praised my "abandonment of Grecian Formula in favor of other age-denying activities."

But I've been pouring on the Grecian every day. It's the bimonthly dye job that I've abandoned.

Kylee King was going out to the Third Level club and had no idea there was going to be a porn party there.

From Excalibur:

Porn Star Ice D'Angelo is one of the ultimate rarities in the industry -- she's a second-generation porn starlet! Ice is the daughter of long-time porn star Angela D'Angelo, and has brought a similar do-anything style to her own carnal career. Born in Miami on February 28, 1983, Ice is a smooth-skinned stunner with some astounding natural curves and deep, dark eyes that hint of erotic pleasures to come. Ice grew up in Los Angeles, and got into porn almost as soon as she turned eighteen years old.

Ice first hit porn screens in 2001, and quickly established herself as a young woman to be reckoned with.

Deep Throat Hi-Def Premiere - 11/13/05

I chat with Erin and Kris, who've just returned from three days in Las Vegas celebrating Erin's 22nd birthday. A week ago, they were in Southern Oregon introducing Erin to Kris's hippie parents. They love her (even though they know she's a porn star). "They like me more than he does," says Erin. "They call me for my birthday."

Erin and Kris say they've turned into a couple of homebodies who stay at home most evenings and play Play Station.

I chat with HDHE CEO Thomas Funk. Deep Throat is the first film he's transferred to High Def from film. He's released seven porn films shot on High Def. "I want to do Candy Stripers and Debbie Does Dallas."

I ask him what percentage of his business is Adult.

Tom: "It's a tough question to directly answer. At this point, it's nearly all Adult, but I'm in the process of working with a couple of companies...with a couple of hundred mainstream titles. There's a new company that's releasing a High-Def ($200) DVD player that they will demo at CES in January. The High-Def logo we use they're going to use as part of their integrated marketing.

"In addition to [his dozen or so High Def porn sites], I have HighDefmovies.com and mainstream-sounding ones. We're going to do a whole integrated bundle of mainstream DVDs with the player... We'll start shipping about March.

"It's Windows Media 9. These players have a chip in them that decodes Windows Media 9 in High Definition. There are a couple hundred thousand players going out pointing back to our HighDefMovies website, which, in turn, will lead, through a few layers, to the Adult side. It won't be anything that will lead kids... People won't be able to complain..."

Tom says Arrow owner Ray Pistol wants to get a real director, such as a Quentin Tarantino, to shoot a remake of Deep Throat.

A woman who looks about 30 and works at the nightclub says she's insulted that she was just propositioned to do porn. She talks about it for ten minutes with the bouncers.

What's that old joke? You tell a Jewish girl she looks like a hooker and she'll say, "Thank you."

By the time I left the club (I CANDY LOUNGE at 7929 Santa Monica Blvd) at 10pm Sunday, there were about 50 people inside.

I guess things became livelier later when James Bartholet and Mac Afrrica showed up.
