Adult Industry Blog of the Year – LukeisBack.com

NL-TY Kelli & Staff for all your hard work figuring this out. LIB is VERY PROUD to have won! This is one of those REAL award contests, that includes LIB’s popularity as part of it’s criteria. Makes sense to me that the more people that read and rely on this site, the more important it becomes to the industry. With controversy, and allowing all types of opinions, LIB is relevant to all sides of the views of the biz. We also really care about the people and issues involved, which I hope shows up, even if it is sometimes mired in our desire to give everyone their chance at Freedom of Speech, whether their agenda and views are popular or not.
This honor reflects the year 2009, and that is our first full year running LIB. I appreciate my readers and writers who helped me through it, including struggles with the good, the bad & the ugly. 
I also want to thank Luke Ford for starting this site and giving people a voice no matter how unpopular it was. And thank my family who put up with me often being missing and having an extra full time job that pays nothing monetarily, but much that fills my spirit.
We are honored to be included in this group of deserving winners who are at the top of their game, and as I like to say, “are The Good Guys”.

NL-2009’s Special thank yous to Hubby, Techman, Georgina, Dom, Industry by Rick, Josh, Rog, Den, Terri, and all my wonderful writers/commenters/supporters, including Jon, Mariah, Vicky, Mercedez, Pepe, Xcitement, Hustler, Jeremy, The Colonel, all of my loyal readers and the terrific stars/directors etc that have the balls to do interviews for this site, and of course all my wonderful advertisers who also believe strongly in Freedom of Speech and put their name on it! ( and everyone that I will add to this list when you drop me a note to remind me you deserve to be here and/or when I wake up and think of more names… lol Oh, and welcome to my new writers & reviewers too!
Congratulations!
A sincere congrats to Cindi for the nod, You deserve it Girl !!
I’d like to thank the academy, Cindi, and all those who made this moment possible. I’ve finally been validated in life!… Hey, what do you mean I’m not supposed to be up on stage? (whoops, I just pulled an Eddie Charisma)
Congrats, Cindi. Does this mean I get a pay raise? j/k
I think sex industry awards ought to have an ornamental rubber phallas or toy vagina (based on sex or preference). That way, presenters can lovingly say to the winners to take their trophy and go fuck themselves with it.
p.s.- All Hail Womens LIB… “It’s where all the womens at” (that and “ladieZ night”)
Congratulations, Cindi, and thank you for being a fantastic friend. Let’s keep up the good work.
Cheers.
Congrats.
Well deserved.

Congratulations Cindi. It’s nice to see your hard work recognized.
Kudos Cindi, finally a reward for putting up with all of us idiots. How did Monstar not win for PR? Oh wait, I guess showing your mug at every porn event isnt the same as doing your job.
You have my warmest regards and congratulations, Cindi. That trophy will make a nice mantel piece… wait, you Floridians don’t have fireplaces! Well, a nice doorstop then (;^)
Sorry I haven’t been around to contribute my 2 cents much these past months, but I’ll try to check in now and again, and poke the campfire around which gather my newfound friends here – you, the Colonel, Jeremy, lil’ g (just kiddin’), and the other wonderful, intelligent, and witty folks on the L-I-B.
You rawk like a hurricane! NL- Missed you!
hey 3rd, thx 4 the props, pops.
Right on Third Axis, stop by and visit more often, chatting with you and reading your comments is always a pleasure.
Congrads Cindi!! Maybe if the industry is around next year we can pull this off again!! kudos to Jeremy steele for the good atricles and the Colonel too!! ANd of course Mariah Milano, your articles are good too babe!
Right on, Cindi..this site kicks ass and you deserve this for all your hard work.
The Steven Driver coverage was top notch. Especially the day Steven played samuari on top of a hill. LIB was all over it, updating it constantly.
Bill Margold is an assburger for saying he does not read LIB.
Thx Rick, and Goatlord, I, I mean we were all over that story.
We need to have a “Bill Margold Talk-a-Thon” to raise money to feed starving porn stars… until the goal amount is raised Bill will keep talking. I bet it will generate a record amount of donations fast just to get him to hurry up and shut up.
Congradulations Cindi.
I would like to add that I think Cindi won this award IN SPITE of the posters here, not because of them.(myself included) It seems like a few regulars here are trying to take some of the credit here for this award.
The credit is all yours Cindi. Youre the only one who works here.
As usual Joe, you don’t know Jack…
Thanks, guys! And you’re welcome right back*
Keep on fighting the good fight!
Cheers
I guess I can understand your reaction Jeremiah. After all this is the closest you have ever come after ten years in the industry to actually being recognized with some kind of award.
Dream on Jeremiah, CINDI deserves ALL of the credit. For you to even imply anything different, as certainly have, is laughable.
Would Eric Hippeau be given all the credit if The Huffington Post won an award? No he wouldn’t. The people who write for the site would. Would all the credit be given to the producer of a television show if they won an Emmy? No, the cast of characters that make people come back to watch would get most of the credit.
The credit also goes to the people who comment because many people visit mostly to read the comments. You can’t say that Jeremy, Al, and Colonel are not responsible for the traffic to LIB when many of the posts they write get hundreds of comments each. Thousands more who read but never comment.
When a site is 99% made up by what other people write, then the credit goes to those writers, photographers, and people who comment.
When a site is 100% made up by stolen pictures, cyberstalking and libeling people…annoying, unemployed, man hating insiders should better STFU.
Bucky, I thought you went political on us. Still reading the porn sites?
Don’t you have a lot to lose now with your new political venture?
Pictures also aren’t stolen when many of them are sent to me to post.
Having a blog doesn’t mean I’m cyberstalking anyone. I have to update it, don’t I?
You don’t know anything about me or if I’m unemployed or not.
I’m just as annoying as you and the next person.
I don’t hate men and never have. Pointing out crimes against women & children by men doesn’t mean I hate men.
I’m just standing up for every single contributor that LIB has had and pointing out that without them, LIB wouldn’t exist. Many of you seem to think they do nothing. I’m here saying otherwise.
Joe. Your stupidity is baffling. Darrah is right this time. Who do you think writes my articles, or Colonels, etc? They are LIB Exclusives. I got a call earlier from Brandon Iron today asking me when I’m going to put up another Op/Ed because he says he enjoys them. I also hear from others that I’m a good writer, although not as p.c. as I should be. But I leave political correctness to politicians who are light years more dirtier than porn people. I consider Cindi a friend because she’s been nice to me, and considering all I’ve gone through with certain people respect goes a long, long way. I’ve had to apologize to Cindi in the past because I was not always nice to her, but I explained that for a while I was having my buttons pushed so continuously by certain cunts that my button got stuck. LIB will never be XPT just like Mother Teresa will never be Charles Manson, but if porn has any kind of community, perhaps this is it.
Dilusions of granduer.
That’s spelled “delusions”, you idiot.
Joe thinks contributors deserve no credit. This idiocy is right on par with all the wrong predictions he’s made which he’s claimed to “know”.
(shaking my head) Joe don’t know that he don’t know, despite all the times I’ve pointed him out as being wrong after saying he knows.
“Joe know” doesn’t even make any sense if the English language but you’re too stupid to know this, Joe.
From this point onward, I’m going to address you as “Dingleberry Joe”!

Hey Cindi, nice convo between Darrah and http://twitter.com/ALisHERE about you today.
NL- Thanks for heads up Buck. I posted it on the site.
Would love to see the link to Darrah’s site getting removed from your blogroll.
Time to get rid of that girl here.
Great Job! Congratulations.
Well done Cindy! and sorry for the Delay!!
Congrats, Cindi!
