Back when the Old Stuff was New Stuff

Mark Twain wrote, “Always do right! This will gratify some people and astonish the rest.” … D.Minion wrote … well, a bunch of other stuff that probably actually gratifies some of us, astonishes more than a few of us, and then completely baffles the majority of us. That said, she does get to hang out with beautiful porn stars, so she’s got that going for her. Also, a group of people theoretically exist that might understand references to 1960’s television, although they would likely never admit it in public. So D.Minion probably makes them happy. … For the record, though, it’s really mean of her to threaten to pee on the heated seats in someone’s Lincoln, just so you know.

Probably not very many of us sit down for lunch and begin discussing the best lesbian orgies we’ve ever seen. And probably most of us have never considered that such a thing might exist as a shy porn star. And certainly almost no one could conceive of shooting a movie where none of the people actually in the show even know they’re doing it. … Well, things happen to be fairly odd in the risqué world, and just these sorts of things happen to us with some regularity. … Of course it remains to be seen what kind of difference this path less chosen will ultimately make, but if ever people start being overly critical, we just bring the conversation back to the lesbian orgies. That generally shuts them up. [FEATURED TAGS: Shayla LaVeaux, Kristal Summers, Inari Vachs]

How far will writers go to “justify” a sex scene in an adult movie? … Yeah, well, anyone that has seen very many that even pretend to have a plot will tell you, basically an amazingly long way. Of course if you tried to write what happens in your own life down on paper, it probably wouldn’t make all that good of a movie, which of course explains why we have movies in the first place. On the other hand, what if you shot a movie, and no one knew it — even the people starring in the movie? … We’ve done that.  [FEATURED TAGS: Shayla LaVeaux, Kristal Summers, Inari Vachs, Rayveness, Alexis Amore, Capri Anderson Video]

What ho! We have discovered the “reason” taxes were not due on April 16th, that being “Emancipation Day” in Washington D.C. — so apparently a holiday there means none of the rest of us can be held responsible for federal laws on that day either. While we’re really talking about Day Three of Gibby’s dance report on Shayla.com, with a little Tenaya (and a bonus for a friend) thrown in, this new knowledge did give us pause to consider: Are we not all glad at least not to be subject to the whims of the D.C. Mayoral elections? Remember Marion Barry? … EEEK! [FEATURED TAGS: Shayla LaVeaux, Olivia Parrish, Tenaya]

Does anyone know why since April 15th falls on a Sunday this year folks get until Tuesday to get their tax returns filed? More importantly, although certainly taxes hold a vital importance to each of us, and no one can think of anything more exciting, nor can we think of anything more enjoyable that involves compulsory participation, every once in awhile we need to think about less taxing considerations, right? … OK. So we might have been just the slightest bit sarcastic there for a second, but we nonetheless rank among the world’s experts at non-taxing diversions. Society needs those too, you know.

Very few people have a legal name that makes them well suited to enjoy all the “Friday The Thirteenth” occasions that happen in a year. Other than being often compared to the one-eyed dog, with no tail, and three legs, being named “Lucky” probably makes life more interesting than being someone named Bob or something. Sometimes, however, you just do what you’re told. Pick your battles, after all. (And for the record, we happen to know some very excellent “Bob” people, and we promise to continue to genuflect when appropriate.) [FEATURED TAGS: Sophia Knight Exclusive Video, Sunny Leone]

How can it be that a group with nearly 100 years of combined experience in the adult industry has never run across such a fun word as concupiscent until today? And who would have thought the vocabulary lesson would appear in a biography on Harry Truman? … Unexpected things happen in life, though, and at its core, that seems to be what makes it worth living — well, at least if you sort of overlook the whole beautiful women thing. … Members here, of course, completely grok the value we place on reading, and some of them might even hang around because of it. Who knows? They may potentially also appreciate how we do not forget about the beautiful women aspect, however. That could be.

We have been known, on occasion, to take a wee bit of time to get completely through a story here in the Commune. Having acknowledged that fact, even we found ourselves astounded at the eight years it has taken to finish up this little tale of Maverick and Dee. At least we cover well this time around by quickly popping you off to Shayla’s site so you don’t spend too much time thinking about the sort of people that might even remember an “open” task for eight years. On the other hand, we tend to get used to open in this business. [FEATURED TAGS: Shayla LaVeaux, Dee]

Apparently people have been wildly scrambling to buy California Lottery tickets, leading to the usual media reports about the statistical difficulty involved in actually winning the big bucks. Without a doubt our favorite comparison put the odds in terms quite easy to understand: “You are more likely to get killed by a vending machine than get all six numbers correct in this random drawing.” Now that may be, but don’t you think they should postpone all big revelations like this to today? After all, they could have a lot of fun on April Fool’s Day — we do. [FEATURED TAGS: Taren Steele, Dee Video]

So apparently they had this big wedding yesterday, and insane people over here stayed up until all hours of the morning just to watch it on TV? Well, we can’t say that this makes any sense to us California folks, but then we’ve heard the same thing said about us from other parts of the country. Did you ever embrace a reflective moment and think about just how you ended up where you did in your life? Presumably people in prison do this with some regularity, but fortunately today we’re not talking about weddings or incarceration – either of these sad situations. Today we sit down with Shayla and consider the “Origins of Porn Woman” and be honestly thrilled that the entire world doesn’t watch everything we do. Seriously. That sounds icky, right?

You know what colloquialisms are we assume? OK. So most of us have at least heard the word, and we probably have some vague idea of the meaning, although that may or may not be true. After all, it’s not like you have occasion to throw that particular English language tidbit into a conversation every day. And if you have one thing, like a colloquialism, for example, don’t sound principles of physics dictate that its direct opposite be possible too? So what’s the opposite of a colloquialism? … If you’re confused, you’ve now perfectly prepared yourself to match our condition today, so all you Members can now feel free to enter. On the upside, we do have Renee Perez playing in the shower this time around, and basically that’s not very confusing at all. [FEATURED TAGS: Renee Perez Video, Michael Ninn]

There are many, many ways to say Happy Birthday across the globe, yet all of them mean, “Gosh, you’re even older than you were yesterday.” As our friends get older, we have noticed a tendency to buy them gifts that we hope to get back in inheritance, though, but that’s OK, right? We should be practical after all. Also, we’re going to stop writing now so that El Jefe doesn’t have enough clues to figure out which of us wrote this introduction.

Just in case you’re ever curious, you should know that the only people that ever win in a lawsuit are the lawyers. Legal fights beat you up financially, emotionally, and depending upon how long they drag on, even spiritually. They’re not fun. Sadly, however, they are sometimes necessary. As we understand it, you’ve got to stand for something or you’ll fall for anything. All in all, the only thing you really learn from lawsuits boils down to an addition to your list of people with whom you never want to have to see ever again in your life. Sometimes the lawyers don’t end up being first on that list, but they always make the list for sure. Even for attorneys, though, all good things must come to an end, and eventually even the most acrimonious of disputes reaches some form of resolution. Today would be such a day. … Whew.

Most of us would agree that only a few things in life can annoy us as much as paying taxes. We all see the need for them in the abstract, and quite honestly see the value in government services and the philanthropic concepts of helping those less fortunate than ourselves. When theory crashes into personal reality, however, you can almost hear a universal whining. If you don’t believe that just listen to the richest 10% of the people in the country bellow and start talking about the President’s citizenship every time he dares suggest they should probably try to contribute a little more to help the country get out of its economic mess – that he didn’t create, by the way, but let’s not get too bogged down in politics. … In that non-political spirit we’re dishing up our own risque brand of tax relief today. We’d be willing to bet that if you love it or hate it, you’re decision will have nothing whatsoever to with your party affiliation. [FEATURED TAGS: Cytherea, Lylith LaVey]

Does anyone else wonder why today doesn’t qualify as Tax Day, even though it’s a Friday and not a weekend? Nope. We didn’t either. We just said, “Whoopie! We get extra time this year!” … Of course none of us really need the extra time because we always do our taxes in January so we don’t even have to worry about it anymore. Yep. That’s our story, and we’re stickin’ to it. … You’ll find other words (and pictures) of wisdom in A Dawning today as well. What an excellent Friday.

We would love to say that we spend hours and hours thinking up clever titles for our ever-so-insightful commentary on the risque commune sites, but that wouldn’t technically be true. Generally someone just pops off with something, the others laugh, and that’s what we go with. Sometimes, though, a couple of very good ideas get thrown into the mix, and then we have a debate, granted about the silliest of things. (That’s what Americans do, as any analysis of professional sports or politics will clearly illustrate.) Today we had “Sheen without Luster” as well as “Sheen and Lust Her” as options that we just couldn’t reach consensus on. D.Minion said she’d decide, since it was her story, after all. … Naturally D.Minion picked a third title. … It’s good to be Queen. We’re not so sure about being a Goddess, however.  [FEATURED TAGS: Capri Anderson, Bree Olsen Video]

Back before he started making sausage, Jimmy Dean recorded a song with a chorus that began, “I won’t go huntin’ with you, Jake, but I’ll go chasin’ women.” Most of you will probably be glad to hear that this does not happen to be the song in which you can find Shayla naked in the music video. That said, as between early 1950’s country music – Ice T’s “Body Count” – and sausage, we can’t honestly say which we’d like to see made less. Shayla dancing naked is always good, however.

Last night we learned the Butler did it, if UConn believe that. … And if you don’t follow college basketball, or if you happen to be reading this years from now, that will make no sense at all. Fortunately, sexy women do tend toward the timeless and universally understood, so don’t worry yourself too much about the “strangest of the strange” around here. Both Shayla LaVeaux and Cheyenne Silver give reports today on the most recent AEE, and 247AdultStars chimes in with “visitors” Lon and D.Minion as well. All it all it’s very confusing. So go slowly and remember to breathe. Ice cream might help too. … And for all you authors that hurried your reports in because we were going to publish this a couple of days ago … um … April Fool’s. (Hey we couldn’t have used the amazingly clever and hysterical Butler/UConn comment on April 1st. See? Things tend to work out.)

Quite a few NFL rookie training camps opened today, as we’re certain each of you knows, since listening to anything at all that concerns either upcoming primary elections or whatever the government in Washington D.C. – and which political party thinks the other one has been taken over by morons – has long since ceased being interesting. Well, in Denver (in case you missed this vital information) they had a whopping 32 new team members present for this first day of workouts. And they had 47 members of the press in attendance to document all the vital information stemming from the day. They do like their Broncos in Colorado. … And speaking of Colorado, we have some news of our own regarding the beautiful state, and a bit of its homegrown beauty, actually. Sometimes in life, being a “Mile High” just makes a lot of sense.  [FEATURED TAGS: Shayla LaVeaux]

Considering it has been quite difficult as of late to get a plane ride out of London, it’s probably a good thing that Maverick can find fun things to do within the city. We wondered why he’d stop right in the middle of his AEE Epic to do something else on 247AdultStars, and then we saw the photos and video clips. Apparently the volcanic ash has not affected Mav’s mental capicity (yet). Also, his decision has the added benefit of giving us a moment to talk about fashion shows over there in the land of Bangers and Mash. If you’re in a hurry, you might just skip to Syren; you can reflect upon fashion statements at a later date. (But you’re going to miss all the funny stuff.)

You love Fun Facts, right? … So Yahoo, clearly one of the better-known Internet Giants has been running a very simple poll that only had one question in it: “Are you in favor of the Health Care Reform Bill?” And NFL.com, presumably not nearly such a major player in the virtual world, has been running a rather more complicated poll, theoretically attempting to determine “The Top 75 Draft Picks of All Time.” (This wording sounds a bit like we could vote for Charleton Heston in Ben Hur, but it could just be that “Time” didn’t really start until the 1960’s.) … Now as of last Friday, slightly over 39 thousand people had voted on the Yahoo poll, and somewhere over 45 million people had voted on the Pro Football question. We’re not going to try to draw any conclusions for you from that little tidbit of information, but we will tell you that Michael Ninn did not cast a vote in either arena, because he’s been rather busy being all artistic and such. Risqué members get to see how, assuming they’re not trying to remember whom the Broncos drafted in 1967. (Floyd Little, just so you know.)

Clearly almost everyone finds themselves now camped in front of ESPN, waiting breathlessly for the NFL Draft to begin tomorrow. For some odd reason a few of the office people here think that it being Earth Day might be of more significance, but those people are obviously disturbed. … On the off chance that you have a computer near your television, we’re filling you in a bit more with “Knowing Cytherea” — the modern version. We’ve got a lot of the demonstrably liquid lass in the queue these days, and not one of us feels any problem with this.

Tax Day may seem like an odd day to tell a Love Story, but if you think about it, Love generally has no rhyme or reason, and besides most of us love it when we finally put the tax junk away for another year. Of course to get to the Love Story, you might have to meander through another day of nudity and fun with Dee at KSEX, but we do what we must (as this day reminds us every year). Oh, and if meandering with a naked Dee doesn’t interest you, well, then you’ve clearly been looking at depressing numbers for too long. Have a nice glass of warm milk and come back tomorrow.

Goodness but we have philosophy for you today. Of course when D.Minion goes on set and gets to spend time with a friend she hasn’t seen in a few years, that tends to happen. At least this time we forced her to break the experience up into four parts, so you have some at least minimal chance of getting all the way through her barely 1,800 words. If you’d rather just jump to the photographs and BTS video, naturally, you can do that as always. Of course you’ll need to come up with your own philosophies regarding Cytherea and her new attitude. Opinion around here seems to be that her new boobs speak for themselves. Boobs do that.  [FEATURED TAGS: Cytherea Video, Exclusive Video]

Some surprises in life are better than others. OK. So some surprises in life can really basically suck, but today’s “hint” of a surprise doesn’t suck at all. … Oh. Yes she does, come to think of it. But that’s not always bad, even as surprises go. And this doesn’t even technically qualify as the “big” surprise, but it does explain why we’ve been as busy as we have.

Today we celebrate Fools (with a capital “F” ). Or maybe we’re supposed to fool them (with a small “f” ). Or maybe it’s just a day for us to excuse every mean thing we do with “April Fool’s” , like that justifies anything. Now it probably makes as much sense as being able to pinch somebody just because they don’t happen to be wearing the proper colors some days, or letting young children gorge themselves on candy because it’s good for them that one day. … Come to think of it, we have some weird holidays. … Sticking to today for the sake of brevity, then, if a woman chooses not to promote herself as a Penthouse Pet on some days because she has to attend a prom or graduation with her boyfriend, and the company gets really mad about that, which of them is the greater Fool?

Both Tenured and Interned types assisted in today’s trials and tribulations in the Tempering of Tenaya. Watching young talent develop can of course be one of the most entertaining aspects for members here, and if you’ve seen any of our other Tenaya posts over the last couple of months, you can testify to that. This time around you’ll get to peek in on some of the initial “lessons” that Tenaya undertook, and if you pay close attention, you’ll even see some tidbits of editor attitude popping up now and again. If you are new here, you have some catching up to do. … Maybe now would be a good time to note that we continue to like alliteration too. [FEATURED TAGS: Tenaya Video, Asia Carrera, Exclusive Video]

The NFL Draft finally airs today on ESPN so we can finally stop talking about what some team might do given a list of potential decisions regarding several possible courses of action. Maybe. For our purposes, Maverick chimes in from 247AdultStars with something of a much more certain universal interest, that being Kristal Summers. OK. So technically he forgot to turn on the audio feed when recording the BTS video, but most of us won’t mind that nearly as much as listening to functionally innumerable football “experts” telling us all the good and bad stuff that happened today. … Just because you’ve done something professionally doesn’t make you qualified to explain, or even talk about, it. Right? If you don’t believe that, try listening to a porn star talk about sex some time. [FEATURED TAGS: 247AdultStars.com, Kristal Summers Video, Exclusive Video]

In some ways this resembles our occasional “Gee, you get to be test subjects for new technology” approach, actually. (OK. It may not “resemble” so much as it “exactly duplicates” that approach, but why be overly picky?) On the decided upside, though, if such experiments fall under the heading “Variations on a Lesbian Theme” and include A.J.

With coverage of the latest Michael Ninn shoot for Celluloid Addiction, we’re offering up our own (certainly reverent) “Rocks of Ages” today. Honestly, it can become a bit difficult to maintain journalistic integrity when you’re watching a porn star give a lap dance to a Buddha. Then hearing one of the attendant starlets proclaim “Other girls have so much drama,” pretty much leaves one the choice of laughing out loud … or leaving the room and laughing out loud. Fortunately for us, we don’t claim much in the truly “journalistic” field, and as for integrity, well, we plan on looking that word up in the dictionary some day. [FEATURED TAGS: A.J.
