Then we have Tori Black. Sadly, we were never around her enough to become actually friendly with Tori. Saw her on a few sets; did an interview with her for AVN once in Vegas. That about covers it. Like most people, we have seen her work, but we also got to listen to her talk and answer questions in a quiet room. That maybe put the icing on the cake. Emerging as an elegant, educated, and refined individual, Tori combines her intelligence with a raw appetite for the libidinous which few people could ever match.

Women have been demonstrating it for decades before and have continued in the years since. From our perspective, though, evolution and history allowed Tori Black to put the exclamation point on it being not only accepted, but actually celebrated, that females can like sex too — a lot. A good reason exists that no single person has ever won as many trophies in a single year as this spectacular person. Oddly if we asked we have forgotten the answer, but we don’t actually know how Tori chose Tori as her name. We can say that it serves no part in her legal name, but beyond that, we simply have no idea. Should she have been a part of the original Tories back in our original war, however, the American Revolution might have been in trouble. We can say that with certainty.

We should mention, back on the main road for a moment, that for our part we have always been partial to the clever/funny stage names, which should come as no surprise to anyone familiar with the Risqué Commune at all. If nothing else, it shows that you do not take yourself — or at least this part of yourself — too seriously. Try and not giggle at Ben Dover, Buster Hymen, Throbbin Hood, Luke Thighwalker, or certainly Justine Beaver and Teen LeQueefa. Truth be told, Jenny Thalia might be our current favorite, though, as she enhances the name with an ornate and expertly-applied Peacock tattoo covering her arm. We do love the puns you have to work for, after all.

Bottom line, and you have likely heard this before in Risqué, should you be choosing your own stage name at some point, we will give you some simple, although perhaps not obvious advice: When you choose an option, force yourself to write it out longhand fifty times in a row. You may be signing it hundreds of times in a day. It never hurts to be comfortable with the “flow” of that procedure.

It occurs to us at this late juncture that perhaps we should have at least mentioned the scene on tap for today. So we’ll be brief: It’s great. … It’s Tori Black. Of course it’s great. … But you should have a private conversation with her sometime. That you will remember for a lot longer.

For the record, no matter what type of probing you need to do — stage name analysis, ant watching, meaning of life discussions, whatever — our advice would always be to try and get Tori Black to accompany you. A Stage Name need not be elaborate or clever, you see. Tori’s perfectly memorable with her simple one.

Should you wish to look around some more, you can merrily lose yourself in minutiae. It will not be nearly as entertaining, though. Fair warning.
