Esad writes: 10/5/00 luke, as a retailer with many stores i am appalled by the behavior of rob black. as a regular attendee of the avn awards show i clearly remember rob black winning many awards a few years ago much to the apparent displeasure of the mainstream adult companies! his success at that show prompted me to start stocking his product heavily in all of my stores. this ignorant asshole should kiss avn's collective smelly ass or asshole, as avn helped create rob black. without tom byron or paul fishbein, rob black would just be another unknown porno low life! because of their help, rob black is a successful, mentally disturbed porno scumbag, who makes people like me embarrased to selling his product! tom byron would be wise to distance himself from black and the litigation that will probably be heading his way! 12/4/00 dear luke, no one knows more of the true porn dirt than me! i can tell you s--- about gene ross that would have him scrambling back to his parents trophy making business quicker than he could say "I would be nothing without paul fishbein!'" i know more about fishbein than even gene ross could ever imagine. I even have pictures of gene ross without the dead animal on his bald head! i am currently working on the 12 days of gene ross which i will send to you. i wonder if your new alliance with gene will forbid you from printing this? i might even arrange for you to contact one of gene's ex girl and "boy" friends from his very interesting and sexually confused east coast past! i am no paul fishbein fan by any means. fishbein would sell tickets to his own funeral and arrange for sponsors to underwrite the expense of it, if he could! however, gene ross is the worst kind of scum because he owes everything he has to avn and fishbein and he cannot deal with the truth! i plan to keep you posted on the real truth behind the gene ross, paul fishbein, avn soap opera. esad20001 12/5/00 luke, if you want the good stuff you can't edit it or i'm not interested. you edited me yesterday. if i notice you editing my comments, you're out. i know more about fishbein than even gene ross. i've got the goods on just how stupid fishbein is, but i also have the goods on ross. i'm a true insider. but since you and ross are such buddies, i don't think you have the balls. i know he doesn't. and fishbein's site?... you can't even access it! If you want the "Hairpiece Chronicles", the true dirt on the Fishbein/Ross relationship, you'll have to print all of it. Oh, and by the way, i''ve got great stuff on Michael Glogow,'er, Ken Wood, too. luke, esad is fine. one of the funnier fishbein/ross moments is how paul would always complain when driving with gene about not being able to put the windows down because gene's "hair" would fly away. ross actually thinks that people don't know that he is wearing an animal on his head! i believe ross probably violated fishbein's animal abuse policy. its ok to sodomize 18 years olds but don't you dare eat veal! these two guys deserve each other! assholes! The Hairpiece Chronicles: How much do you know about Gene Ross's own corruption? Or how stupid Fishbein is. Ask Gene what happened when Ross was writing scripts for people who were customers of AVN. Ross wrote scripts for his friend Jack Michaelson at Cinderella and Mitchell Spinelli at Plum. When he found out, Fishbein went nuts and Gene promised never to do it again. He lied to Fishbein's face and kept doing it.....for years. Here's where Fishbein is really stupid. He knows the guy's doing it behind his back, asks Gene about it, Gene lies and the idiot Fishbein believes him. Ross f---ed Fishbein behind his back on tons of occasions and it goes way back to the beginning. Fishbein thinks he was being loyal.to Gene when...actually he was just an idiot. Much more to come, including the stories of former employees who faced Gene's wrath, tales of Gene's personal friends who provided him girls and money and .... much more. On Glogow: He hates when people use his real name but Ken Wood is Michael Glogow. I got the goods on Mr Napolean himself, and how he polarized the entire AVN editorial staff with his bloated ego and lack of editorial skills. 12/6/00 dear luke, my original comment to you was that you would print what i had to say. basically your telling me that you only want the goods on fishbein, and you will censor all that it is written about gene ross or mike? were is your sense of fair play or obligation to be objective. my dislike for fishbein is quite sincere but if you are not willing to print the hairpiece chronicles or anything about gene being scolded for secretly writing for adult companies, yet you will blast fishbein for conflict of interests for similiar behavior then you are a hypocrite and not worthy of my imformation. 12/7/00 luke, your column repeats stuff over and over yet now you are suddenly afraid to be repetitive about gene's professional shortcomings? Why should i give you the dirt on fishbein, ross, and wood, if really only interested in blasting fishbein. if you are buddies with the other two why should i give them a headsup. i can post my imfo to my own website. i now lots of dirt on gene ross., hookers, crack whores, cash payments on the side for scripts, reviews, etc........ luke, as expected you proved to be gene ross's bitch. my sources at extreme have imformed me that you have been forwarding him my e-mails. please understand that esad means, extreme spy at your disposal. i have the goods on extreme, avn, ross and fishbein but you are too stupid to play fair! good bye and good luck. dear luke, pleae understand part of the plan here at extreme is too dump you like a bad wrestling angle once they have "played you out". keep sucking gene's dick but don't get mad when he sends his little luke bitch packing. fishbein should hire you as you would be perfect for his organization. not all people at extreme are happy about gene being here! Believe me one way or another the "Hairpiece Chronicles will be read. time to spit, Gene just came! Sorry you did not have the guts to be a neutral gossip columnist. luke, why would i give you imformation if you only want to bury avn. i have so much good stuff only rob black, tom byron, wrestling payoffs, under the table payments to "new employees", etc. do you think the dummies at avn are the only ones who have employees that feel "f---ed over!" do you admit forwarding my emails to gene? luke, i am on the inside of extreme. you are serving a purpose for their master plan. they think this is all some kind of real life wrestling angle. Extreme is trying to be "AVN on The Edge", to many projects at once, not enough capital, too much sex, drugs, etc....Please your relationship with gene is based on his need to use your popular website to get his own site over with people. Its ok to be used but don't think you have a relationship. you should print everything and remain the thorn on everyones butt in the industry that your so "loved for". i knew within 2 minutes that you forwarded him my e-mail. why not interview gene about his stellar career prior to his avn days? Why not ask fishbein about his prior, nevermind that would really do him in.. and your not worthy of my imformation. dear luke, thank you for growing some balls! the real deal on gene's partnership offer back in phila. many years ago was quite simply an offer of profit sharing/slash retirement plan, not ownership interest. despite paul's obvious shortcomings he would never be stupid enough to give away shares in avn without a significant capital contribution! gene is just trying justify his position here at extreme and create media attention(i'll give him credit for this!) he must paint paul as a Vince McMahon type character in order to justify the disloyalty and hatchet job he is now performing on the company that saved him from a succession of dead end jobs, and his inability to succeed on his own. fishbein might be a pompous asshole but he sure as hell is an obnoxious self made success story. no family business or old money here to back him up. gene is a bitter number three man who turned on his employer in order to justify his "extreme" salary. watch your back, rob, tom etc....Gene never wanted an office at avn with a big window because he would never open it due to possible adverse wind conditions! the only thing funnier than watching the overweight editorial staff at avn chase the lunch truck was gene tending to his wig, not realizing how much everyone cracked up over it. gene the sun tans working baby, but the hair just ain't cutting it. well you haven't actually cut it in 40 years, Geno! the only thing funnier than gene's hair was Fishbein's first wife! If Gene wore Fishbein's first wifes clothes he would have been one f---ing ugly tranny with a bad hair piece and a great tan! dear luke, please tell gene ross that i am deeply offended that he thinks i am Bryn from Avn! I happen to be alot funnier than Bryn and i purchase my computers from stores that take credit cards! Nice try Geno, but believe it or not you have people within your own little porno world that dislike you and your holier and thou attitude. the way you would hold court at the CES show giving away AVN talent tickets like you were King Solomon (jew reference for you, luke ) dispensing wisdom! Gene you make Fishbein appear to be almost human, or at least his skin color and hair are! Luke will you post some very funny pictures of gene and paul if i can find them? have a nice weekend! 12/10/00 dear luke, gene ross really has me upset now! i went from being Paul Fishbein, to Bryn from AVN, and now i think he just described me as something that is a cross between Ron Jeremy and Mark Kernes on his website. God, that makes me think about fishbein's first wife again! Here is quick Gene Ross Quiz: What is the accurate number of hookers that Gene Ross turned away in one two hour period due to the escort services "money back if not delighted policy" in Las Vegas at CES a few years ago? A- none, Fishbein doesn't pay well enough to buy pussy! I will give you the correct answer tomorrow. dear luke, the answer to yesterday's gene ross quiz was officially the letter C. Gene would argue that the correct answer was A, and anyone who saw Gene leaving Samantha Strong's hotel room about 4:00am would argue that the correct answer was D. An exhausted Gene Ross finally nailed the third hooker even though he later admitted that he wasn't that thrilled with her either! 12/11/00 Porners In Glass Houses Dear Luke, I almost thru up my breakfast reading Gene Ross discussing the conflict of interest involving Mark Kernes over at Avn. Are you aware that in 1992 Gene Ross wrote the CDI Video, "The Party", which I believe won Best Video! Gene also helped direct various sex scenes and was paid for his services in both cash and pussy! The Moron Fishbein did not know about this, and when informed about it after returning to L.A. after the show decided to fire Gene but was later talked out of it. I heard a rumor that Fishbein is a Mensa member..........Ross also directed and reviewed a David Christopher porno/wrestling movie whose name escapes me at this moment.... The following scoops will be coming soon to Luke F-rd: *the top ten real reasons Gene Ross is so bitter about avn and fishidiot *the secret Mark Kernes diet. learn the truth about how this top rated writer keeps himself so fit, trim, and healthy. Also includes his own version of the IRS tax code. *Which adult director has been bribing Gene Ross for years? Hint: His last name is very easy to choke on. *Which adult film actress did Gene Ross claim that he "ate her pussy still she screamed for him to stop?" Hint: this might be the one actress that Fishbein has not been accused of sleeping with in the last 14 years! Hairmaster writes: Luke, Much as I've enjoyed the last few weeks of AVN-trashing, it's getting tired (Paul Fishbein is corrupt and his staff are a bunch of hopeless losers; big news). So, in the interest of Interest, I've decided to wage my own one-man war against the biggest loser EVER to work at AVN, and the only man more hated by the adult industry than Fishbein: Gene Stormin' Halitosis Ross. Now, I realize that it's possible you won't print this since you seem to have become Ross' personal butt-boy lately, but maybe you've got some balls left, like you had in the old days. Let's find out. (by the way, Luke, the dirt I'm about to dish took maybe 12 hours to dig up. If you want to have some real fun, look into old Geno's past. It's hysterical) The best part about reading these rantings from Ross has been how he paints himself, and his other personal butt-boy Mike Glogow, as total saints in their history with the most boring magazine on the planet. And since rumor has it that Fishbein has threatened to fire any AVN staffer who responds to you, and you seem to be too interested in quaffing Gene's choad lately to ask any real questions, no one's likely to call them on it. So I thought I would, just because I hate Ross, have for years, and it seems like fun. Let the carnival of darkness that is Ross's life in porn be told. If you're man enough to print it. (These are just tidbits, by the way. there's lot's more detail coming if you run this) Having, unfortunately, been close to Ross on several occasions, the best thing I can say about the guy is his personal hygiene stinks. I mean, who in the business hasn't laughed behind Ross's back at that dead weasel he keeps on his head? What the f--- is that? I think no one ever called him on it because they were afraid of AVN. He also has the worst breath on the planet. Pity any poor hooker who walks into those arms. Girls, Gene has, by the way, had several different diseases since he refuses to wear rubbers. I'm trying to get a particular pro who got the clap from Unclean Gene to go on the record. Also gals, be aware that Geno has a collection of tapes from his encounters. Be sure to check all the cubby holes and potted plants for hidden cameras. But enough on Gene's charisma. Let's talk business. Gene...Ross claims to have had a lot of lofty writing jobs; newspapers, ad agencies; but all anybody knows for sure is that he was assistant manager in a failing trophy shop. He begged Fishbein nonstop to move the business to LA once he got on steady with AVN. All that crap about Fishbein talking him into it was horses---. He was partly desperate to get away from Philly because he got his heart stomped on hard by a woman he was engaged to there. Unfortunately, she wasn't too serious about Eugene, and she cheated. When she told him, Gene went nuts and beat the s--- out of her. The only way he got her not to press charges was to pay off her family, and promise to move away. Presto! LA, here I come. Eugene's aging mommy, by the way, still doesn't know what her son does for a living. I'm in the process of tracking her down so I can break the news. And for every time Fishbein f---ed Gene over the years, Gene has f---ed Fishbein right back. One of the reasons Gene was so pissed over Sexpose folding is that he was trying to do a deal with Ted Liebowitz to start a competing magazine behind Fishbein's back. When Sexpose went under, that deal fell through. Maybe the reason Fishbein reneged on his ownership deal with Ross is that he knew he couldn't trust the cocksucker. Ross has also written scripts for just about every old-f--- porn producer out there. Cash Markman, John Bowen, Cinderella, David Christopher, Video Team, Patrick Collins. And they all really stunk. Has anyone actually SEEN Adult Video Nudes? It's a piece of s---. The only reason people hired Gene is that he also reviewed all his own movies, never giving them less than four A's. Paul caught him about five times, and every time Gene promised to stop and begged to keep his job. Paul let him stay because he felt sorry for him. Gene even directed some vids, and even tried to do a scene himself with TJ Hart, for John Bowen, but couldn't get wood. Gene's big walkout was supposed to happen for years. First, he was going to Metro and then Marco got canned. Then he was going to Elegant Angel before Patrick Collins sobered up. Then he was going to Cream before he realized that Bowen was a f---ing loser and a deadbeat who would never pay him. Then he was going to Cinderella before they went down the tubes. Finally it was Rob Black and Extreme. Gene even admits in his little defense of himself that he stayed so long because he was a big whining pussy. For all that he was getting f---ed at AVN, he was making almost 100 grand a year PLUS Fishbein paid for his car PLUS Fishbein paid for Gene's s---box apartment PLUS Gene got big Christmas bonuses PLUS he was still writing scripts PLUS he didn't have to DO ANYTHING. That's right. That was the last straw for little Eugene, and that's why he has such a hard-on for Bryn Pryor is that Paul hired Pryor to replace Gene. Ross kept his title, but didn't have anything to do with running the magazine, and everybody in the industry knows it. Until they put up geneross.com to compete with you, Fishbein didn't know what to do with Gene. At one point, they even stopped letting him review tapes because he was in the pocket of the wrong people, and they didn't trust him. Ask John Bowen about the cover Ross promised him that never came to be because Ross couldn't make it happen. Ross had no idea what was going on at AVN. He just wrote his little gossip column and kept to himself. Hell, Rebecca Grey's been gone from the magazine since October, and Ross didn't even know until someone told him last week. That's how in touch he was. Of course, the reason Paul wanted Gene away from the magazine is that he was f---ing it up. It was always late, and no one ever knew where anything was. Pryor was a f--- up too, in that everyone who dealt with the magazine hated him. He used to tell company owners to f--- off on the phone, and he got in a fist-fight with Matt Zane at the XRCO Awards. No one really knows why Fishbein kept Pryor around. I've heard he got Paul pussy, but that seems stupid. It was probably the stolen computers deal, or maybe the movie they were supposed to be working on that Ross now claims was stolen from him (more on that in a bit). Fishbein finally kicked Pryor out of the job when Jeff Steward called Paul's partner, Stewart Franks, and threatened to pull all of Legend's ads unless they got rid of Pryor. Pryor also asked to take over Gene's column when he left, but they wouldn't let him do it, afraid that he would be too abrasive. As for Money Shot; which Gene keeps whining about being stolen, the WGA registration lists six creators, Kenneth Brodzinski, Rebecca Grey, Robert Pouliot, Bryn Pryor, [Gene Ross] and Ellen Thompson. The real story seems to be that Ross was also trying to get Ted Liebowitz to finance this, and couldn't come through. Then he hooked up with some producer who wanted to buy the idea, and cut them all out. When he got outvoted by the other five, he backed out and lost interest. They were thrilled because they didn't want to deal with his hack writing anyway, but they kept going to him for approval. He hasn't given any of them the time of day since they went to Fishbein, but now that they're finally doing it as a stupid-ass internet series, and Ross smells some cash, he's whining that they stole it. In closing; for now, let me address Mike Glogow, since he's currently feeding off Gene's dick cheese to live. I've never met him, but I hear that Glogow was a real bite-in-the-ass. Apparently, he was on a real power trip at AVN, and used to scream at people 'I'm in charge! I have authority! You have to listen to me!'; although that isn't what got him fired. He also thought he was a spy, and used to get on everyone's computers, which is what got him fired, and which is where all Gene's info comes from; that, and some illegal tapes he made that he's been playing for people like a moron. Glogow also used to rat Gene out to Fishbein at every opportunity, who never believed any of it. When Gene told Glogow he was leaving AVN to go to Extreme after VSDA in June, it was all over the office in minutes. The only one who was surprised was Fishbein, who wouldn't listen to Glogow. When some of the employees told Fishbein they though the dead fish thing was all a setup staged by Gene, Ross went ballistic, screaming at people like he did when he ran the magazine. Glogow also must not be too bright as he's proven himself to be guilty of industrial espionage (stealing proprietary information you have no right to access from one company + entering the employ of a competing company to provide that information = industrial espionage you f---ing dummy). Also, he left behind a whole trail of e-mails that were the last straw in his firing... E-mails of him promising Jenna he could set up a deal for her at Vivid (she could never remember who he was, I'm told), e-mails of him begging Russ Hampshire for a job so they could control AVN, e-mails of him buying drugs, e- mails from him telling people he had the goods on Paul. Also, supposedly, he left some cryptic message on his computer calling Pryor bitter white trash. For those who are keeping score, Glogow lives with his rich mommy and daddy, drives a Mercedes they pay for, and has a job at Extreme polishing Gene's dome and sucking down his jizz, though he doesn't want anyone to know he works in porn, especially under his real name. That's all; for now. And Gene, unlike these AVN fags, I'm untouchable, so I defy you to figure out who I am. You even think we're friends, you stupid, pathetic old f---. Knock on my door and you can suck my cock. Esad writes: Dear Luke, First of all I want to give you my word that I am not Hairmaster. I would love to take credit for that masterpiece he wrote but I would be lying. Please do not credit me with something I don't deserve. I have never met Mike Albo and I would not involve an innocent party in my one man Fishbein/Ross crusade. Much of what Hairmaster said is true about Gene and it would appear to me it was written by one of Fishbein's writers or friends in the business. I am neither of those to him. I am not aware of Gene Ross ever striking a women and being forced to leave town. I heard rumors about Gene and his various veneral diseases but I cannot provide you reasonable evidence of this either. His love of hookers and porno girls would lead one to believe that this was a strong possibilty.......Gene Ross has absolutely written scripts and participated in making movies for friends of his like, David Christoper (Nude World Order), and was knee deep into Rebecca Gray like conflict of interest with his role in CDI's The Party, which he secretly wrote, reviewed, and voted on without the f---ing moron Fishbein even knowing it!!! 12/13/00 Dear Luke, For over two weeks now Gene Ross and others have taken AVN to task regarding alleged errors in their 401K program. I would like to pose the following questions to Michael G., Gene Ross, and Paul Fishidiot; If there was mishandling of the funds was it deliberately abused for personal gain or was it an accounting error that Fishidiot had nothing to do with as per his normal brilliant management style, and he is simply the victim of a bad bookeeper or shoddy accounting? I also wonder how many other adult companies even offer their employees the benefits of a 401k program as part of their employee package? Luke, these are questions legitimate questions that you should seek the answers too.. What does Vivid, VCA, Extreme, and other companies offer their employees? Did people like Gene Ross, and Michael Scumbag receive company sponsored 401k matchs or was it all of their own money in the pot? I personally believe that Fishidiot is as an employer is well ahead of most when it comes to providing for his staff, unfortunately he lacks the business skills at times to properly oversee his empire. dear luke, your explanation is totally understandable. Believe me I will hold nothing back on Paul Fishbein either. I just find Gene's hyprocisy so much more interesting. Paul Fishbein in his rush for millions fails to watch his underlings stealing and double dealing from right under his nose. The Israeli thief, Darren Roberts, Gene Ross, the list goes on and on. I truly believe Gene Ross has invented a reason to be mad at Fishidiot in order to justify his "EXTERME" behavior. Do you really believe Gene wasn't in on the whole Rob Black thing from the beginning? Gene is nothing more than a bitter person so blinded by jealousy of Fishidiot that bashing him has become his fulltime job. In reality he has stolen your job! In time you will learn to dislike Gene more than Paul, because with Paul, what you see is what you get, Gene Ross is a big fake created by DR. FISHIDIOT, and now Paul is paying the price for his master creation. Rob Black is using you to steal other companies talent and ideas, and Gene Ross is just a well paid whore who will eventually pick a new corner to work on! there is a definite fear of your relationship with gene that prohibits contact at this time from other people within or formerly of Extreme. In due time I will "unmask" myself but I assure you that I am not a pro Avn insider. I believe this is the fifth indentity of mine that Gene has succesfully unmasked!. If he ever accuses me of being Steve Hirsch I will have to kill myself.....I can't imagine counting that much money all the time and spending countless hours writing all of those fascinating AVN Award acceptance speechs every January! I don't really like to drink so I can't be Russ Hampshire. I dress to good to be Paul Fishidiot and I really don't like redheads .....Maybe I am Rob Black and ESAD is one of my "funfilled" Extreme publicity stunts?.....Could I be Luke F-rd using ESAD to gain favor with the new powerbroker in porn, Gene Ross? I couldn't be Mark Kernes because I email Luke way to early in the morning, generally before breakfast, which for Kernes isn't over past Lunch! Maybe I am one of the Stone brothers, its not like they have anything real important going on......Chris Mann is a possibility, I like hanging around pretty, loose black chicks, and Chris certainly has the extra brain that fishbein is missing! I think i am that guy Chaim, i don't know who he is but I enjoy his material. Ok gene i am Chaim! ESAD Gene says he won't answer my questions and proceeds to answer all of them except about what other video companies offer their employees in benefits, including Extreme? Gene during your AVN career did you ever write, direct or work for a video company and receive any kind of payment without your bosses consent. did this violate AVN company policy? Gene's lawyer replies-"next question please." Gene I know enough about this industry and you in particular to keep me on Luke F-rd's Chanukah Card list for years! Coming soon, the top ten reasons for gene ross's "extreme" bitterness. Will luke get permission from Gene to print it? 12/14/00 dear luke, my sources within the pristine walls of that sacred vessel of integrity, AVN, have informed me that some very unpleasant legal action awaits Mr. Ross in the very near future. I believe that Gene will have a great opportunity to write about his "hometown" hookers. It seems that a certain brilliant Pa. lawyer will soon request the company of Mr. Ross and possibly Mr. Black for some romantic quality time, Philadelphia style! Who says you can't go home! From what i have been told Fishidiot will spare no expense in order to have Gene's "real scalp" mounted on his office wall! I have this vision of Fishbein banging porno chicks on his desk gazing up at Gene Ross stuffed and mounted on his wall! I believe the Extreme boys realize they have some serious exposure because they are certainly "tap dancing" now about who said what. I believe Extreme will be having a slight product price increase to cover the costs of their inpending massive legal expense. Fishidiot up to now has hesitated to send in the troops because deep down inside he really likes Rob Black, and he feels sorry for Gene Ross. What an idiot! esad (formerly Bryn, Paul, Kernes, some other fat guy, and now the infamous, "Hairmaster", according to Gene!) luke, believe me my bitch gene will respond to me. If he knew who i was it would put alot of people in danger. Didn't Gene hang onto a job he hated due to economic realities? Well Geno I am in the same boat as you. The mighty Gene Ross now a man of high principal unwilling to respond to adult insiders who fail to bless gene with their real identity! The same Gene Ross who "borrows" corporate tax returns, k-1's, and financial statements from his boss and sends them to the likes of Luke F-rd for publication? The same guy who broke all the corporate policies at AVN that he helped write? Gene which movie were you paid more for to write , Nude World Order or The Party? Did you remember to report the income from these little side ventures? Gene we all do s--- that we aren't proud of but nobody is a bigger hypocrite than you. Gene could you go a week without mentioning AVN or Paul Fishidiot or your site? How ironic is it that Paul still remains your economic provider? Now if he would only forward you that beloved 401K match! 12/15/00 luke, How about contacting all the video companies, including Avn and Extreme, and asking them how much they are giving their employees in the form of a christmas bonuses? Considering the fact that Extreme is 60-90 days behind with most of their vendors I am just wondering how much of "other peoples" money they are giving away? Can Gene Ross provide proof that he was paid a year in advance for climbing into the sewer at Extreme? Is Paul Fishidiot giving Christmas bonuses to his staff or is he spending it all on lawyers? Dear Luke, It is quite apparent to me and many other porn insiders that Gene Ross needs this fued with Paul Fishidiot to justify his employment. Could Gene go a week without mention Fishidiot or AVN? Isn't Gene still really depending upon fishbein for his source of income? Luke, you might be anti AVN but you certainly have lots of other people and companies to spew your anti porn hatred on! I believe that Gene's act will grow tiresome and once again you will resume your spot at the top of "Adult Muckraking at its Finest." 12/21/00 dear luke, the real deal inside Extreme is that they are very nervous about their potential legal exposure. It will be interesting to see how big a party Extreme throws at CES with the money they owe everybody else in this cesspool of an industry! Do you notice how dull Gene's site is once he has laid off the AVN poop? How many more inhouse interviews with Extreme directors can Gene do to fill out his website? Even Tod Hunter is making fun of Gene! Word has it that Fishidiot will drop a minor bomb on Extreme next week! Fortunately for Fishidiot, his partner, and his slew of lawyers are now handling the Extreme/Ross problem. Fishidiot's partner might be very quiet but he is not the kind of person you want to piss off! If Gene Ross kept such wonderful records during his 14 years at AVN maybe he could produce one shred of evidence that he was ever offered a piece of the business? Gene, just go to Paul and apologize, tell him you did all of this to promote AVN and Geneross.com, Fishidiot with his great sense of character judgment(did you ever meet his first wife) will believe you and immediately rehire you! Gene and Paul reunited! The whole world of porn can once again sleep soundly knowing that Gene Ross can once again suck his employment milk from Paul Fishidiot and the massive AVN tit. Happy chanukah to all! 12/28/00 dear luke, just wondering which smells worse, the stench from Rebecca Gray's vagina or Gene Ross's hairpiece helmet? Poor Gene simply does not fit in with the Extreme Crowd. He reminds me of the kid in high school who desperately trys to validate himself by fitting in with "cool kids." There is a rumor going around that a certain wrestling alliance has placed a bounty on Gene's "hairpiece" and that several of their wrestlers will be in Las Vegas to claim their "prize." A little revenge for some of the crap that XPW has pulled off. Speaking of "pulling off", Gene might want to keep his hat on real tight next week! 12/29/00 dear luke, i assure you that i do not work for AVN, now or ever. I cannot make the same claim however regarding Extreme. I have inside imformation about both companies that in Gene's world would make me neither a babyface or a heel! I happen to despise both companies, and both of their owners make me sick! If I appear to be anti Gene Ross it is because I hate scumbags who try to capitalize on other peoples ideas and talent. Gene Ross has based his whole being on Rebecca Gray and The Seven Deadly Sins story, yet he did the same thing behind fishidiot's back for David Christopher? Rob Black like Fishbein has talent, but both have proved their stupidity by giving Gene Ross positions of authority within their companies. Gene Ross will always be a decent third fiddle but he is not capable of being a true headliner in the world of porn or wrestling! Once his 15 minutes of anti AVN fame fades into the night Gene Ross will be just another bitter ex employee, wondering where it all went wrong. How much damage and money this ultimately costs Extreme will conclude the Gene Ross legacy. It should be fun next week in Las Vegas..... 1/4/01 luke, i told you that a minor bomb would be dropped on Extreme by Avn [dropping Rob Black from the January, 2001 AVN cover]. How long could Rob Black expect to be financially carried by a company that he has admitted committing industrial espionage on? Rob Black's accounts payable aging would even make a dead beat company like Metro proud! I am leaving for Vegas soon maybe i will introduce myself to you! Luke, everyone within the Extreme organization knows that Rob lost the Avn cover because he failed to honor the payment agreements he made with various vendors, including Fishidiot and AVN. How long are you gonna carry your deadbeat clients, especially when they try to ruin your business and your credibility? Even a moron like Fishbein is eventaully gonna wise up. This smells like his partner finally stepping into the mess that Fishidiot has allowed to happen....Ask Rob Black how much money Extreme owes the various players within the adult industry? 12/10/01 Luke, My sources inside the pristine walls of AVN have told me that Paul Fishidiot is currently negotiating to start his own wrestling alliance. Over the last several weeks Fishbein has been making serious plans to form a rival west coast wrestling alliance that will hit Rob Black right where it hurts him the most, in his wallet! Fishbein has a deep love of wrestling and published his own wrestling magazine when he was fourteen years old with his current AVN partner, Stu Franks. Fishbein along with his mentally unstable ex-wife, owned a Japenese Wrestling Video Company called Dusty Woods Entertainment which specialized in Japanese Wrestling. Fishbein has close contacts with TV Asahi and Fuji Television in Japan who are both extremely interested in the project. Apparently Fishbein has access to top level Japanese Wrestling Talent that will appear for monthly West Coast Wrestlling Tours. Fishbein’s Bank, City National Bank, thrilled with Fishbein, based on the success of his Internex Trade show business, and AVN have agreed to finance the entire project. Prior to this, Fishbein was seeking private money within his well heeled group of friends and business partners back on the East Coast. Several banker types were on the AVN guest list for the AVN awards show in Las Vegas this past weekend. The whisper around the AVN office is that Fishbein tripled his revenues on this show. It went so well that even Fishbein’s miserable silent partner Stu Franks was caught smiling! Fishbein over the last six weeks has met with Jim Cornette, who will exclusively book the talent for what will probably be called the IXPW, International Extreme Pro Wrestling. Fishbein is waiting for his slew of attorney’s to legally bless this “Extreme”ly below the belt name! Fishbein also has a long standing friendship Paul Heyman, aka Paulie Dangerously of ECW fame. There is no love lost for XPW from ECW ever since XPW crashed an ECW show many months ago. Heyman and ECW who are cash poor but overflowing in wrestling talent and creativety, are interested in possibly co-promoting their wrestling alliances. Fishbein who always liked Rob Black prior to whole Gene Ross mess was originally going to offer Rob a piece of this deal. For obvious reasons Fishbein has decided against partnering with Black or anything or anybody that has anything to do with Gene Ross. Unlike some of his other failed business projects, Fishbein will stay strictly on the sidelines of this business and allow true wrestling professionals to run the company. Fishbein will responsible for any porno angles that might be developed in the future. Luke, Please find below my observations regarding our wonderful industry this past weekend in las vegas. The internet convention was surprisingly good, well attended and quite interesting. The avn adult expo was highlighted by the amazing positioning of rival companies AVN and EXTREME ASSOCIATES within a "tossed video of each other!" These companies were literally located within 8 feet of each other. AVN had their usual assortment of obese men(editorial staff)clogging up their booth and ateries chowing down on free danish that fishidiot provided. At times there fat asses were blocking the pretty models that AVN assembled to front their booth. If Fishbein was able to score with these girls he certainly had a great weekend! Truth be told, Fishbeins' wife is alot hotter than most of the women he has been accused of f---ing by various internet assholes! Extreme did their company proud with their brilliantly conceived strategy of getting the crowd to chant, EXTREME RULES, AVN SUCKS!!!! by throwing tee shirts and videos into the crowd. A bunch of eight years old could come up with a better method of drawing attention to one of the most depressing and least visited booths on the convention floor. Imagine Tom Zupko trying to stand up on the ledge of the booth to get people to yell anti Avn insults. If one of the guys from ZZ TOP was pregnant and didn't shower for a month you would have Tom Zupko! What a fat ugly s---! Then there was the fat little Extreme guy with the bleached blond hair who acted like he was a real tough guy...what a pussy. I really did feel bad for Tom Bryon who has talent, used to be a stand up guy, respected, etc...he must have made a deal with the devil to be stuck with Mr. Black and company. Speaki! ng! of Mr. Black, he was hardly around his booth. Rumor has it that he was afraid of possible collection visits from all the people he owes money too. I wonder if Rob knows his mother was caught talking to Paul Fishbein by the snack bar? Rumor has it that Mrs. Z really hates KING OF ALL HAIRPIECES, MR. GENE ROSS. Gene seemed quite subdued in his booth staring out at all of the activity taking place at the AVN booth. I kept waiting for one of the fat guys to at least bring him a danish! Gene was so depressed that he limited himself to one incall hooker per day! Apparently Gene has been eating pretty good since he left AVN as gut was approaching "Kerneslike" size. I hate to think that Extreme used up all their creativety in "EXTREME RULES, AVN SUCKS chant? Christ, we could have storylines featuring girls with toilet seats wrapped around their heads, and words spelled out in semen on their faces! Maybe we could have a six man tag match next year, Paul Fishbein and his parents versus Rob Black and his parents! Since both guys parents are usually at the show maybe this could really work! Slain Wayne could do a run in with a toilet seat and Bryn Pryor could smash him over the head with a cheap computer! Speaking of Bryn the "Arizona Mafia" was out and about filming various scenes for THE MONEY SHOT or as I would say THE GUARANTEED BOMB. More details about Las Vegas to follow. 1/11/01 Luke, After reading my posting regarding Paul Fishbein's possible IXPW Wrestling Alliance I realized that I made one factual error. Fishbein has only recently developed his relationhip with Paul Heyman of ECW fame. They have spoken of late regarding this venture but they are not long time friends. Fishbein does have a long standing relationship with Jim Cornette and is friendly with many wrestlers. You know that imfamous porno/wrestling connection! Word is that Fishbein is furious that this story has leaked and is searching like crazy to find out who I am and how I get my imformation! 1/12/01 Dear Luke, From what I hear from our friends at AVN is that Fishidiot has placed a bounty on my head! Seems that is willing to pay a reward for the imformatioin leading to my unmasking (i guess wrestling lingo is now ok!). Paul is apparently upset over the potential loss of revenue since I leaked his wrestling deal! Sorry Pal! Question of the day? If a real fat Rueben Sturman awarding winning journalist gets a blow job from a porno chick but can't see it because his belly is in the way, then did it really happen???? I keep reading about Gene Ross accussing AVN of being dishonest. Is this the same Gene Ross who claimed that he was not involved in Rob Black's Extreme Days and only accepted the job with Extreme while watching football with Rob one Sunday afternoon? Rob Black then later admits that Gene was in on the whole thing which is what everybody in the business already knew! Honesty Gene? Gene Ross is about as "real person" as the "HAIR" on his head! For the record I can't stand Paul Fishbein or Gene Ross but the honest truth is that Extreme for three straight days in Las Vegas attempted to provoke AVN into an altercation and failed miserably. Extreme is nothing more than a group of renegade wannabees who all try to dress alike, act alike, and pretend that they are on the EDGE! Extreme is a bunch of unshaven punks who can't even fit into a f---ed up society like adult entertainment! Extreme will be the company that causes major legal problems for the entire industry, and when that happens Rob Black will have the legacy he so deperately seeks, and at the same time get his real revenge on Paul Fishbein , by putting many companies into desperate legal and financial trouble, which will ultimately cause them not to advertise in AVN. Coming Soon on Luke F-rd- Growing up with Gene and Paul, "The Early Years" esad 1/15/01 Luke, Please wish Paul Fishbein a speedy recovery from the "vegas flu" which has kept out of the office for the last few days. Apparently he shared the same air as that fat s--- Tom Zupko from Extreme Associates and got violently ill! Gods speed, Paul! One of Paul's East Coast partners was quite incensed with Al Goldstein's anti-sematic pro Hitler jokes during the Avn Awards show. Apparently this guy is truly the only person Paul will listen to when it comes to business matters! Fishbein's own mother who attended the show was so upset with Goldstein that she threatened to cut off Paul's allowance! 1/17/01 Luke, Who am I? I owe everybody in the industry money. I then post on my website what a large distributor owes me. I commit industrial espionage and my product features rape and sexual violence. I pretend that I am Vince McMahon. I can't afford to pay my top contract girl.....I rip off the King of All Media. I must be the future mayor of L.A.! Dear Luke, Think about this. Ross rightfully hates Fishbein because he plays god within the adult business community. Fishbein rightfully hates Ross because he lied and deceived Fishbein. Esad hates them both and they really do deserve each other. What does Ross do as soon as he gets some of his own power? He plays the part of Fishbein to Luke F-rd and tells him what he can print on his own website! Ross wants to silence ESAD because he has the goods on Gene Ross all the way back from the good old days. Would you respect Fishbein if he made a deal with you to ignore Gene Ross? I respect you for not honoring Gene Ross’s “mob”like” who you can buy the pizza dough from directives! I have the goods on both of these f---ers and over time I will share it all with you. Why else is Gene Ross so concerned about my postings? He doesn’t have the balls to print what I sent to him directly! If he successfully silences ESAD on your site I will simply start my own website. ESAD has plenty of time and money and lots of good imformation. Maybe I will buy Extreme in the near future? At least Tom Byron’s job would be safe! I also like their girls! Imagine the Tom Zupko and the mandatory morning exercise program I would install. If Zupko gains anymore weight he could become a writer over at AVN! ECW Wrestling has been going bankrupt back since the times when Fishbein had no wives and Gene Ross had hair! Why is Gene afraid of ESAD? Why is Gene blackmailing Luke F-rd to silence ESAD? Gene you have lots of reasons to fear ESAD but don’t worry I’ll keep you around this business alot longer for my own personal entertainment! I won’t drop any major bombs on you...........Paul don’t get jealous I won’t keep ignoring your selfish sorry ass for too much longer! I hope I didn’t cost you to much $$$ with my wrestling annoucement? Luke, thanks for not giving in to Gene Ross’s blackmail and I will continue to keep you “posted” on all the inside imformation I have the various people within our lovely little business! 1/30/01 Esad writes: dear luke, I was not aware that I was a fictional character invented by fishbein and you [f---PaulFishbein.com]! where is my check? I"m glad Rob Black has time to invest in another project,f---paulfishbein.com! For someone who won't acknowledge ESAD, Gene Ross definetely spends alot of time thinking about me and now copying my name and writing style. Thanks Gino! Maybe I will call myself Captain Gene? Or Rob Black's sperm recepticle? I could care less if you want to destroy Fishidiot but please use your own creativety, and name! I wonder who laid out the $35.00 for the Extreme boys to purchase the domain name? ESAD p.s. I hope this posting meets with both Paul's and your approval? Luke, Extreme has until tommorow to pay AVN their advertising bill or the lawsuit will land them in court. While f---paulfishbein.com was alot of fun to read I can't help wondering why Gene Ross felt compelled to be me. My hair is real, my breath is fresh, I am not the poster boy for escort services (it seems Paul and Gene do have some common ground), I do not suck dick or kiss ass to stay employed, and I do not attempt to blackmail competing websites to limit their postings. What you know- Extreme Associates- The kings of censorship! Paul Fishbein spoke to Wrestling booker Jim Cornette today about upcoming LA area wrestling show. An Internet Assault On Gene Ross I found this site devoted to bashing Gene Ross. Here's what it says: ONE Gene works for Extreme Associates. Notorious for bounced checks and non-payments, Gene demanded a year's salary up-front just so another whining bitch, Rob Black, could claim "Victory" over AVN. It is clear that Gene Ross' new site GeneRossExtreme.com is nothing more than a big fat advertisement for any new Extreme Associate video. Apparently, Rob Black didn't like some of the real articles Gene Ross was writing. So Rob bitch slapped Gene who cowered like a little bitch. Now he almost exclusively writes about "New Releases" and "The new Extreme bitch!" Gene Ross is now referred to as "Rob Black's Little Drummer Boy". TWO Gene Ross works for Rob Black who is a blatant imbecile. Case in point. The idiot recently devised a bulls--- stunt claiming that he's running for mayor. So what does this idiot do? He f---ing posts his mayor petition online. And guess what? Real name, real address. THREE Gene Ross runs Extreme's websites which is notorious for ripping off their customers. Their paysite has never been updated. And irate customers have poured into their message boards angrily venting their frustrations at paying $30 a month to join. Every week there have been promises of updates. And it never ever happened because someone is a complete moron behind the wheel. Gene Ross can barely type! How the f--- is he going to set up a web site? Besides, the site is not Password Protected and anybody can find a way in. Click to see for yourself why Extreme's paysite is the worst on the net. It's FREE! FOUR Because Extreme Associates message boards were flooded with angry messages from angry customers who got ripped off, Gene Ross and Rob Black decided to censor the board. First, they claimed a technical glitch that erased all the messages. Then, they claimed that they wanted a "Fresh Start". Finally, they required a password to post a message. But to post a message, the webmaster (Gene Ross?) issued the following statement: "We've changed our policy on the message board to have a discussion only on the movies and on the adult film industry in general. It was too difficult to follow so many messages with so many different topics. In order to receive a password, you must not engage in criticizing Extreme Associates or the website or any unsubstantiated rumors about Extreme Associates. Those problems should be directed towards myself and I will let the appropriate people know. If you agree, reply to this message with the subject "I agree" and I will send you the password." This is the same company with a supposed "No plea-bargain policy", but everyone knows what a little bitch Rob Black is who will run to Mommy & Daddy like a scared little bitch and, of course, Gene Ross will be run for cover claiming he had no involvement like the sorry old hag that he is. FIVE Everything Gene Ross touches or gets involved in either fails miserably or is taken from him. Brains and wit is something Gene Ross seriously lacks. For example, MoronsAtExtreme (a censored Extreme Associates message board writer) wrote recently: You will never have an updated or top 10,000 ranked pay site because everything this company tries to do, fails miserably. Examples. Hanco website == EXTREME failure Creating a new website == EXTREME failure. (Hey Kev, try cleaning a chrome before you scan it. I mean, we know 98% of the woman that you shoot are dogs, but the least you could do is get rid of the s--- on the images.) Extreme the Magazine == EXTREME failure XPW the TV show == EXTREME failure. Rob Black's mayoral candidacy == guaranteed failure. E-Days == EXTREME failure. AVN Coup == EXTREME failure. Keeping Contract Girls == Jasmine ST. Claire, Kristi Myst, Tiffany Mynx, Monique, Alana Evans, Ashlyn Gere and many more. EXTREME failure. Making sure a GM named Jon Blatt didn't rip you off == EXTREME failure. Maybe Tommy and Rob should get out of their back room office and quit relying on Rob's dad to keep their s--- afloat. IN SUMMARY, GENE ROSS IS A USED UP BITCH WHORING HIMSELF TO BE A SLAVE OF ANOTHER BITCH NAMED ROB BLACK, MAYORAL CANDIDATE. THEY RIP OFF THEIR WEBSITE CUSTOMERS, THEY RUN A CHEESY, BULLs--- WRESTLING COMPANY PLAYING AT LOCAL HIGH SCHOOLS (I WONDER WHEN THE PRINCIPAL AT BIRMINGHAM HIGH SCHOOL IN VAN NUYS AND THE LOCAL MEDIA WILL FIND OUT THAT XPW IS RUN BY SMUT PEDDLERS), AND THEY BOTH WHINE LIKE LITTLE BITCHES ABOUT BEING LIED TO BY AVN, METRO, ETC. GENE ROSS USED TO WRITE HALFWAY DECENTLY UNTIL HE BECAME ROB BLACK'S BITCH. NOW THEY ARE IN CAHOOTS UNTIL IT BECOMES CLEAR THAT ROB BLACK'S DUMBASS ANTICS SENDS EXTREME CRASHING TO THE GROUND (BEFORE ASHCROFT GETS A HOLD OF HIM). GENE ROSS IS AN IMBECILE AND A f---ING PUPPET. MAYBE ONE DAY, HE'LL GROW SOME BALLS AND BECOME A MAN. SO IN THE MEANTIME, HE CAN HELP ROB BLACK PAY WITH BOUNCED CHECKS. HIS COMPANY CAN KEEP OWING MONEY, BARELY SURVIVING WEEK TO WEEK. AND HE CAN ACT LIKE A LITTLE WHORE BY PRETENDING NOT TO KNOW. MAYBE BECAUSE HE'S AN IMBECILE, THAT HE GOT FIRED AT AVN AFTER BEING USED AND ABUSED LIKE THE WHORE THAT HE IS. HEY GENE, DON'T YOU KNOW THAT ROB BLACK MAY ACT ALL TOUGH OVER THE PHONE, BUT WHEN YOU CALL HIM OUT, HE HAS TO HIDE BEHIND A BUNCH OF WORTHLESS GOONS CAUSE HE'S A SCARED LITTLE s---? I'VE SEEN HIM CRY LIKE A BITCH, STUCK IN THE FETAL POSITION ON THE FLOOR CRYING OUT TO MOMMY CAUSE HE DIDN'T WANT TO FIGHT. WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!! April 17, 2007 Video: Gene Ross Interview Gene Ross II Gene Ross III Luke: "What do you love and hate about getting older?" Gene: "There's nothing to love about it. The thing that you really hate about it is that all the chicks think you're the funniest old guy in the building... When you go to the restaurant, it's, 'What can I do for you, sir?' All that 'sir' s---." Luke: "Do you get senior citizen discounts?" Gene: "I haven't tried that yet." Luke: "How is your health?" Gene: "Great. I work out stronger today than when I was 25." "The work schedule dictates everything... I'm up at 4:30 a.m. [every day]. I'm doing my thing by 5 a.m. I'm going until about 9 p.m. I'm either at the keyboard or interviewing somebody..." Ross typically falls asleep by 10 p.m. "If somebody tries calling me at 9:30 p.m., forget it. I'm out like a light." Luke: "What do you love and hate about your work?" Rob Spallone: "Nobody pays." Gene agrees. "What I love...is that no day is predictable... I love the porno fistfights." Luke: "How often do you get physically threatened?" Gene: "I don't." Rob: "He's not mean to people. Like you, you think you're my friend. [Rob gets calls.] 'Rob, I was reading on [Lukeisback.com] that your site only has ugly girls.' Is that nice, Luke?" Luke: "I don't pretend to be nice." Rob: "But then you want to come here and talk to the girls..." Gene: "Luke, how often do people tell you that you look like Bob Geldof?" Luke: "Never." Gene: "I don't get anybody who's mad at me. I'm a loving, nurturing, caring person." Rob: "He's like me. He's not like you. For a guy asking questions like that, there's a reason for that." Luke: "Out of all the people Rob Black has hurt in the industry, I can't think of anyone he's done more damage to you than you [Gene]." Ross shrugs. Later, we talk business. "I don't approach people to advertise," says Gene. "They come to me." Luke: "Who are your best friends in the industry?" Gene: "I don't know. I have some people I deal with more than others. Among my better friends is Skeeter Kerkove. ...He's always impressed me as having a steel trap mind for business. He has an incredible sense of its history and particularly his place in it." "I always have this sense that I'm going to be found dead somewhere with a two-week desiccated corpse... I just wonder if you really s--- your pants when you die." Gene says he's kept track of the number of women he's slept with. "Over a thousand women." Luke: "How has your sex life changed over the past ten years?" Gene: "There is none. You read more. I'm catching up on all the movies I missed going out to bars and chasing around." "Once I got into the Adult industry, I found my sex life subsided." Gene says he's had sex with no more than four porn stars. "When I came out here [from Philadelphia in 1990], I didn't know that many people, so one of the first things I did was get into the whole escort thing. I met some of the hottest women." "I've been reluctant to get involved with porn girls because there is way too much drama." "Kim Chambers and I were engaged for almost two weeks then she got nuttier than a fruitcake. I have no idea what that was all about." Luke: "How often have you been offered sexual favors to adjust a story?" Gene: "Never. To this day, I wonder why that never happened." Luke: "Why?" Gene: "I think women in this business are too dumb to figure that out, that this is probably your route to the fast track. They're screwing the wrong guy. Stop screwing around with the directors, producers and owners, f--- the journalists." Luke: "What are the smartest and dumbest decisions you've made?" Gene: "In 1968, I was offered the Philadelphia Phillies beat by this newspaper. I turned it down." "Coming into the Adult business was one of the better things I did." In retrospect, Gene says it was a bad decision to leave AVN in 2000. Luke: What do you think of Paul Fishbein [AVN president]? Gene: "He was a stand-up guy with me. He was one guy in the business you never had to worry where the money was coming from. The checks were always good. The money was always there. It was a good living. He was a decent guy except on one account -- [that he promised Gene a percentage of the AVN business and never delivered]." Luke: "What should people in the business know about Paul?" Gene: "I can't say anything bad about the guy otherwise I'd be lathering my website with invective." "Let's face it -- the reviews are going to be skewed. The bigger advertisers are going to be more catered to. That's a fact of business. He's in it for the buck like everyone else. That's what is going to dictate what goes into that magazine." "I have a phenomenal memory. Don't f--- with me. I remember stuff that happened 21 years ago." "My weak point [as a businessman], I am really loathed to chase money. I'd rather stick needles in my eyeballs than bring up monetary subjects with people." "Weak points [as a writer], I don't have the time to sit down anymore and tailor a piece. We're writing volume now...like s--- through a goose. I can pump out incredible amounts of volume." "What were some of my dumbest hires [at AVN]? It'd have to be the last three or four." I assume Gene means Rebecca Gray, Bryn Pryor, etc... "I ultimately looked at it as 'I've created a nest of vipers and I have to get out of here.'" "Bryn and I butted heads." Luke: "Do you think there's much difference between being a porn star and being a prostitute?" Gene: "It's basically the same thing." "[Porn] provides a good living for girls who would have a hard time in the real world." Luke: "Did you ever find yourself wanting to be a Captain Save-A-Ho?" Gene: "I did all that before I got into the industry and got burnt accordingly. You just can't be a nice guy and you just can't hand a woman a dollar bill. It comes back to haunt you." "As you get older, you have less desire for it. I had a good run with hookers. Some of the best women I've met in my life. It only got worse. That's why I stopped getting escort girls. The quality went down." "All the girls I used to see, they all disappeared. No [contact]. I met some wonderful women who have all disengaged." "When I came back from my father's funeral [in 1994], I got a father's funeral freebie." "Both my parents were good friends." "My father knew [Gene's occupation] and my mother didn't. I know he wanted to ask questions but he never got around to it. I always suspected my mother knew but she never brought the subject up. One time out of the blue she says, 'Do you know a Bill Margold?' Apparently she saw him interviewed on TV." Luke: "What are the biggest misconceptions people have about you?" Gene: "That I'm a rotten son of a bitch... I have a remarkably tender side." "I love the library environment. If you walked into my place, that's what you would see. It's a combination smoking room and library. That's my life -- reading and collecting movies. I have over 4,000 movies in the collection. Books, way more than that." Gene's lived in the same apartment for the past 17 years. Luke: "If you died, how long till somebody discovered your body?" Gene: "About two weeks. They'll find my dessicated body after the aroma hit Ventura Blvd." Luke: "I'm always struck by a defecation theme in your work." Gene laughs. Luke: "You're always talking about people taking a crap." Gene: "That's an East Coast thing... There's no sinister thing to be read between those lines." "I read a book a week if I'm slow and maybe two a week if I make an effort." "Back in Philly, I lost most of my friendships when I got in the Adult business. They turned their nose up at it." "It didn't really matter once I moved out of the old neighborhood." Luke: "Did you notice a change in the way people treated you after you left AVN?" Gene: "Most people would come up to me and say, 'I agree with everything you did but I can't say it on the record because I'm afraid of Paul.'" Luke: "How are your relationships with Vivid?" Gene: "I don't deal with them. I don't deal with any companies. If the story is there, I write it."
