Haiku, you may see with a gasp,
And fear all your reason has passed.
But fret not our friends.
Insanity ends,
When only we’ve posted our last.

Hey, iambic pentameter was too tough for us too, but the barrage of Member Submissions on the convention has commenced – weirdly, via SteveD. That seemed appropriate somehow. Did you know it’s really hard to fit the phrase “iambic pentameter” into iambic pentameter without using those pesky triplet things? Gosh, the stuff you learn on a porn site ….

Here’s a shirt you can’t wear just everywhere: “ASS. The New Vagina.” … This and other observations come through today in the first “Dear Readers Speak” in a couple of years it seems like. Sometimes the uninitiated are so darned cute. And sometimes they’re a bit painful in their honesty. It’s interesting how “regular” people look at an event like the AVN Awards Show, and it’s equally interesting (although certainly quite a bit more odd) how many pictures our own “three amigos” seemed to take of each other. Fortunately they at least had the courtesy to include various fetching women in the photographs too. In the midst of “plowing through” we seem to have wandered down a diversion. We love that.

1/20/07

We’re taking baby steps here, not so much because of the Bill Murray and Richard Dreyfuss movie but because that seemed like a reasonable way to start our assault on the current queue. Consequently we decided to open with a nice little D.Minion story about getting ready for the AVN Awards show this year … with Heather Vuur, Audrey Hollander, Faith Leon, Monica Mayhem, Ruby Flame, Lorraine Sisco, and of course Dee and Kristal. There were some boys there too, but who really notices them with this cast of females? We did read a wonderfully pithy quote in a Lawrence Block book that would fit right in here. Speaking of a particularly attractive female character Mr. Block described her as sending off “a subliminal message that said, Sleep with me and you will die. But it will be worth it.” If you haven’t read the Bernie Rhodenbarr “Burglar” series by Lawrence Block, by the way, you’re missing out on some very funny and entertaining times. While you’re checking Amazon, though, you might look at these pictures and Mav’s video. That’s a fine way to spend some time too.

Hey, we lived through it! (Of course “lived” would be a relative term here.) You know what’s a really bad idea? Reading a Steven King (technically Richard Bachman, though) book about a grueling and ultimately fatal competition whose only characteristic happens to be that it involves lots and lots of walking, precisely while you’re attending a convention that also necessarily involves lots and lots of walking. This is a bad idea. While we’re valiantly trying to make some semblance of order of the 2,000+ pictures, a couple hours of video, multiple audio files, and more autographs then we’ve even begun to count, we thought we’d share a little joy that can come from a virus. Hey, weirdness begets weirdness, and if the Risqué site doesn’t prove that theory for you, then you haven’t really been paying attention. On the upside, we’ve recently had many opportunities to use an almost forgotten phrase, “My dogs are barkin’ now.” And if you know what that means, while you may not be a Redneck yourself, you certainly know at least one.  [FEATURED TAGS: Keana Moire’, Twigy, Zoe, Nella Norrington, Exclusive Video]

You knew, of course, that we would not be allowed to leave the LA area and head for Las Vegas before we had accomplished DM’s task of adding the Essentially Juli AND Shayla Double-DVD to the catalogue, right? Well, we did that, and then we set up some things to keep you occupied for the next week as we converge (from many points of the world, truth be told) on the annual Adult Entertainment Expo for the next week. Consider it a bonus for today, and then consider coming with us next year. You really haven’t lived until you’ve seen some drunk and crying XXX performer, devastated because she didn’t win the “Best Anal Sex Scene” Award. What a surreal world in which we exist.  [FEATURED TAGS: Shayla LaVeaux Video, Keri Windsor Video, Juli Ashton, Anais, Dee, Kristal Summers, Exclusive Video]

Shayla LaVeaux, less upset because she didn't win the Best Anal Scene award.

Guess what follows “Day One” of something, and even sometimes only a few days later. Correct. … “Day Two” …. So we really needn’t even give you much of a build up here, because certainly you’ve already committed Day One on the Set (of Facade) with D.Minion to memory and all that has been keeping you from sleeping is wondering what in the world happened on the dialogue day of the movie. Well, you can in fact read about that today, but you’ll have to wade through all the sex scenes with Mika Tan, Daisy Marie, and Alexis Love in order to find this crucial information. It’s a good thing you’re committed to your education; we respect that. [FEATURED TAGS: Mika Tan, Daisy Marie, Alexis Love, Michael Ninn, D.Minion, Risque News Insight]

Mika resting naked on set. This is a fine way for Mika to rest, by the way.

We learned a fun fact about the entertainment industry today. The cost of shooting ONE episode of the formerly famous TV show, Maimi Vice, actually cost more money than the budget for the entire YEAR of Miami’s actual Vice Squad. Hmm. … Well, nobody said that the entertainment industry makes sense, and so we quickly gloss over our bit of insight into that and look at some pictures of beautiful Dee, gracing the shores of Jamaica. We figure that’s understandable entertainment for pretty much any industry. [FEATURED TAGS: Dee]

Two of Dee's amazing “Feets” ....
1/1/07

It occurred to us that peering into a Facade might be a dandy way to start the New Year, considering the business we’re in and all. We didn’t really give that enough thought considering all the football on TV today though, as even just Day One on the Set with D.Minion turned out to be one of those “thousands of words and 225 pictures” sort of DM days. Ah, well we technically made it as a New Year’s Day post anyway, assuming you happen to live in the Pacific Time Zone at least. Some times you just need to channel some old country songs as you go through life. Those of you that remember Bobby Bare will understand this: “[We] got ‘er, boy, and that’s what makes [us] THE WINNER.” Whew ….

It’s magic. Or maybe it’s just common. We sometimes have difficulty making that distinction, but we’re amazing adept at noticing really beautiful naked women like Kristal and Dee. In the grand scheme of things, that seems like a comfortable compromise. [FEATURED TAGS: Julia Ann, Kristal Summers, Dee, Shayla LaVeaux Video, Devinn Lane Video, Exclusive Video]

Dee on the beach. Try to be there when she is.
12/25/06

Even by our own amazingly lax standards today’s Holiday Celebration stretches the “weird” category to new dimensions. Still, even D.Minion would consider this wonderfully “personal” and a happy minion makes for a happy new year. This seems a quite reasonable goal in the grand perspective. Besides, Juli Ashton, Shayla LaVeaux, Chasey Lain, Vicca, Nikita, Norma Jean, Kaylan Nicole, Serenity, Phaedra Alexis, Stephanie Swift, Stacey Valentine, and Katja Kean (just to name some of them) sound pretty darned festive to us.

Today we present a pre-party present that you can precisely see presently. (There’s some debate about the “personal” nature of this adventure, but by most definitions, considering it not so would be a preposterous proposition.) And now you needn’t rely on prescience. … When you’re at a loss for something to say, we say go with alliteration. It doesn’t necessarily mean much, but it sure is fun.

We’re pretty sure this is the first time we’ve ever put up BTS before even the Facade of BTS. Of course we’re also convinced that we’re very clever and ever-so-amusing, so clearly we have some unresolved issues. Still, Lorraine Sisco in charge of Mika Tan, Otto Bauer, Nikki Benz, Jenaveve Jolie, Daisy Marie, Alexis Love, Kaiya Lynn, Jerry, Ben English, Barry Scott, and Jean Val Jean ought to go a long way toward forgiveness, we figure. Of course we could have that wrong too. … Oh, dear. … See why we try to avoid this treacherous path of reasoning. It’s better just to enjoy the pretty people. … And have some ice cream; that’s good too.

You know how we always say that truth is stranger than fiction? Consider this, and we promise that it’s true. … We were riding in a new SUV that one of the Risqué ladies happened to have picked up recently, and we couldn’t help but noticing a vast collection of “sticky notes” plastered on the dash. “I just love this new car,” the fair lass bubbled, “that little plastic screen is the perfect place to put directions for places I’m going.” … Honestly we waited as long as we could before pointing out that she was in fact using “sticky notes with directions” to cover up the vehicle GPS system. … Sometimes in life it’s best just to sit back and enjoy it. And that’s what we figured to do today as we immerse ourselves in Chris Hall’s pictures on the set of Aperture. Real photographers are fun to visit sometimes, but we must be honest and point out that Chris forgot to get any pictures of domestic animals or guys on ladders.

Altruistic goals guide the male porn star, as we learn today, and then we give some evidence to back up our speculation that most female porn stars didn’t grow up milking cows and slopping hogs. Odd to think that we’re accomplishing this with a push into the Christmas Spirit with on the set coverage of Axel Braun’s Silent Night. We should warn you, though, D.Minion saw real live chickensand guys working on ladders. You might want to just skip those shots and concentrate on the ones of Riley Evans and Regan Reese. It’s really up to you. [FEATURED TAGS: Regan Reese, Riley Evans, Michael Ninn, D.Minion]

Today could be a lot of fun. … Or today could be kind of frustrating. … Or today could even be repetitive, depending upon your personal history. … As a group we’ve chosen cheap Self-Help Book Philosophy: Happiness is there in life for everyone. All you have to do is grab it. … Clearly none of these moronic authors was ever a Bronco fan any time in the 60’s and early 70’s, or over the last three weeks, come to think of it. (That last part was not a “group” consensus, actually.) [FEATURED TAGS: Michael Ninn]

We credit/blame Mr. Ninn for this one.
12/5/06

We have been corrected today, as we show you D.Minion’s stills from Kristal Summers’ First AND Second Cam Shows. And we just feel horrible about the mistake. Or else we don’t give a whit, so long as there continues to be beautiful naked women around. Gosh. We always get these little details confused. And we’d worry about it more, but we apparently still have a lot of pressing lobbying to do. So many cat people, so little time … [FEATURED TAGS: Kristal Summers, D.Minion]

Kristal in pajamas. Really. It's true.
12/2/06

We’re taking “flashing” to a level we actually don’t mind so much. Basically our philosophy has always just been to “not suck” and this effort falls solidly into that category. D.Minion exercised some unusual clout today too, though, but we’re blaming Carol, who said “that sounds like a great post” in some secret communication or another. Let’s just say that as pets go, dogs are still better. So there. [FEATURED TAGS: Jassie Video, Moni Michaels Video, Exclusive Video, Michael Ninn]

Moni Michaels considering Jassie. We do that too.
12/1/06

Apparently it’s rather chilly in many parts of the country, and so we thought we’d offer up a few Jamaican views with Dee (and Kristal Summers and some others). Granted, we’re also using the fun footage to further our educational quests, but if you can’t learn with naked women, well then what fun would life be anyway? [FEATURED TAGS: Kristal Summers, Dee Video, Exclusive Video]

Dee ... warming things up quite nicely already.

We’re trying not to say too much today, in the hopes that most people might just overlook this entry entirely. True, there is a particulary beautiful woman (OK. It’s Kristal Summers.), and she may well be doing particularly interesting things. Still there must be something else you could be doing other than thinking up ways to say unnecessary things on the Message Board after watching what’s in store for today. Isn’t your dog sick or something? Don’t you need to call your mom? [FEATURED TAGS: Kristal Summers Video, Exclusive Video]

Naturally most of you will be way too busy today watching football to see any of the insights that Maverick finally decided to give us (along with the “documentary” video naturally) from his last g/g shoot. Still, since they only have “that other kind of football” over there in the U.K., though, today seemed like a good time to give those dern foreigners (which is pretty much what we call everyone that doesn’t watch football, regardless of their place of domicile) something to do. The rest of you can catch it on Monday after work. No. … That won’t work because of Monday Night Football on ESPN, and since Thursdays are now gone starting this week with new night games on the NFL Network, you’re pretty much going to have to fit it in on Tuesday or Wednesday, or just make an excuse for being late for your weekend dates. Hey, nothing valuable comes easy. [FEATURED TAGS: Alyssa Leigh Video, Kaz B.

11/15/06

Oh, goodness we have many, many pictures today. We’re off for a couple of days to attend a Digital Video Convention down in LA, and we thought we’d give you a little to look at while we’re gone. Silly us. Maybe we should have thought this through a little more carefully before we plopped down some 300-odd (and some very odd) photos to go through in Days Two and Three of D.Minion’s typically epic coverage of the shoot. Ah well, it is the rest of the Aperture shoot, and so it is Heather Vuur, and Marie Luv, and Daisy Marie … and yada, yada. Sometimes people over-complicate things in life. You learn that lesson today too. [FEATURED TAGS: Rita Faltoyano, Daisy Marie, Heather Vuur, Heather Vandeven, Ginger Lea, Holly Wellin, Marie Luv, Lorraine Sisco, Dee, Michael Ninn]

Sadly this is the only picture of Dee today, but it does get bigger inside.
11/10/06

Ah-Hah! We have found the solution to the temptation to run off at the mouth/keyboard that we sometimes see around here. If you just limit the day to one scene, and then you place it in a location that’s functionally impossible for D.Minion to get to, you actually end up with a manageable amount of text and pictures that now define Day One on the set of Aperture. Wow. … Still, we see two sort of major problems with this. First, no human being we’ve ever met can claim any sort of influence over how Michael will do anything at all associated with his movies, and second, the trouble with finding solutions to temptations seems historically to be that the pesky temptations simply mutate into something a lot more formidable. For now, however, we’re comfortable with blind optimism. [FEATURED TAGS: Heather Vuur, Heather Vandeven, Carli Banks, Lorraine Sisco, Michael Ninn]

Carli Banks and Heather Vuur doing ... well, those things they do.

Sometimes things get lost in translation. That happens. … It doesn’t often happen, however, between the U.S. and the U.K. it would seem. Other than the odd “knickers” reference and a “fag” here or there confusion, we can really communicate fairly well we’ve always thought. Granted, we’ll never understand blood sausage, and although rugby has its appeal, to us a “cricket” will always be a harmless little bug that makes pleasant noises in the evening. Still, overall, we pretty much understand each other. Consequently, our scientists ought to be able to communicate just fine as well, right? Well obviously something got mucked up in the trek across the Atlantic because although we all know that carrots are good for our eyesight, the way that we get that nifty vitamin A into our systems somewhat differs from how they appear to over in Maverick’s land. Ah, well, it’s good to be open minded, and if you learn something early in the day, you get to go back to sleep. [FEATURED TAGS: Alyssa Leigh, Kaz B., Maverick]

Another Ninn Worx shoot is in the books, or on the HD Tapes, or whatever, and we’re back in a much more peaceful land. Our favorite crew t-shirt of this shoot read: I’m like a Superhero – with no powers or motivation. That may not excuse much, but as an explanation we found it wonderful. Speaking of not having excuses, GO OUT AND VOTE TODAY. We’ve provided a little visual humor on which you can ruminate during your travels to the polls, and we don’t even care how you vote. It is most important that you do so, however. Pictures are just very brief moments in time, and your actions today have a chance to be a little more than that. OK. Enough Soap Box … There’s also some wonderfully interesting Becoming Georgia Adair insights here too by the way. [FEATURED TAGS: Georgia Adair Video, Exclusive Video, Michael Ninn]

Back when the Old Stuff was New Stuff

10/31/08

We have a lot of wonderful posts around here. (Right?) But we don’t always have wonderfully timed posts around here. Part of the nature of a true “reality in the porn business” site happens to be that schedules can change rapidly – and frequently. We don’t do the typical “print every press release you can find about the business and then try to sell advertising space on your site” sort of approach that almost all of the adult sites do these days. We just try to provide a meek little “Adult Diary” (remember that name you old timers?) of what happens in our little neck of the woods (or whatever body part seems pertinent that particular day). So imagine our surprise when we woke up and somebody on The Today Show mentioned that it’s Halloween. Gee. You’d think we’d notice something like that, at least you would if you didn’t understand the chaos that occasionally defines our existence. Still, we changed the plan once again because there’s really nothing more apropos for this particular day than “Dee & Demon Dog” …. You can see that, right? … Maybe we’ll use today’s plan for tomorrow, or maybe by tomorrow the plan will change again and we’ll have to postpone it to some future time, at which point we’ll undoubtedly say, “Didn’t we put that up yesterday?” Sadly, we’re occasionally like that too. Ah, well … Tomorrow, tomorrow, we love ya, tomorrow … Maybe we should write music. [FEATURED TAGS: Dee Video, Exclusive Video, Michael Ninn]

What do you know? We already have Day Two from Fem: L’Amour ready for your inspection. This time around we’ve got the promised pictures of Heather Vuur and Justine Joli (along with Karlie Montana in that particular scene), and then D.Minion covers the uncovered lasses Marlie Moore, Samantha Ryan, Faith Leon, and Daisy Layne. All in all it’s our usual bevy of beauties along with some “absolutely perfect” lighting. Read all about it, or just look at the pictures. Whatever.

Justine & Heather, playful to say the least.
10/25/06

Lon sent in his pictures from The Gathering and soon they will be selling for millions of dollars. If you want to understand the logic behind that, you’ll have to read today’s post. If, however, you’d prefer just seeing Justine Joli in various states of undress (all in California, ironically) doing various “things” to herself, then at least this will be much easier to understand. If you can’t be deep and philosophical, at least you should have gorgeous naked women; that’s our theory. [FEATURED TAGS: Dee, Justine Joli Video, Exclusive Video, Michael Ninn, Lon, Mr. Moto]

10/22/06

Well, we’re a little lighter in the salary column than we were a week ago (or we will be in a month), but sometimes people get just a little too comfortable, a little too quickly, you know? Then they begin taking liberties, and don’t even understand enough to ask a simple question when we patiently explain that they are not John Stewart Mill. Ah, well …. Consequently, we begin today with “Day One” of D.Minion’s BTS coverage of Fem: L’Amour and we’ll fill in the rest soon. Now this thumbnail, in case you’re wondering, happens to picture a vintage foot massager. Honestly, it has nothing whatsoever to do with Heather Vuur, Angie Savage, Kimberly Kane, or even Kellemarie; it does, however, appear in the coverage of those uncovered on this day. With some people it’s easier to just move along than try to explain. We’ve been hitting our collective heads against the wall so much we fear harming the foundation. [FEATURED TAGS: Heather Vuur, Heather Vandeven, Angie Savage, Kellemarie, Kimberly Kane, Michael Ninn, D.Minion]

No. It's not a pretty girl.
10/19/06

Today we have Lon’s take (and D.Minion’s comments) on The Gathering. Sometimes you need to be careful about the adjectives that you choose, because you don’t want to give the wrong impression. Those grammar aficionados out there will quickly recognize that this first sentence has no adjectives. Make of that what you will. … Oh, and if you’re wondering where we got the unusual thumbnail for this post, you’ll have to check out the entry. Just like Sacred Sin there is a “secret code” somewhere in the story that tells you the answer to this burning question. Unlike Sacred Sin, however, you will not win a free autographed Eddie Van Halen guitar if you are the first to guess the answer. Sorry. On the upside, also unlike Sacred Sin, this “code” is just written in plain English, so it’s really not that hard to figure out. You take the bad with the good in life.

This is neither Lon nor D.Minion.
10/18/06

Sometimes you just need to take a break. For example if you’re innocently looking at coming in to work and putting together a festive look at being on the set of Fem: L’Amour and then somebody runs up before you even sit down and says they’re “not done with the 339 pictures yet, and don’t bug me about it.” And then you hear loud cursing sounds from an office close by that says “10,000 f**king words?” And then the normally unflappable computer dude happens by without the heretofore ubiquitous cup of coffee, and says (for the very first time you’ve ever heard, ever) “I’m not sure if I can do anything with these mpeg files for Friday. … Clearly drastic and frantic solutions were in order, and the Big-Boss-Hog-Honcho’s off in meeting today. … Immediately a stunningly simple solution came to mind, involving a simply stunning Anais. … Don’t you love it when a different plan comes together? [FEATURED TAGS: Anais Video, Exclusive Video, Maverick, Michael Ninn]

Anais all wet.
10/15/06

Whew! We’re finally back to work after the big office move. Things always seem easier looking forward than they do looking back, but sometimes looking back can be fun, particularly when you get a chance to see secret stuff like today. Now that we’re back at it, we thought we’d start with something special. You’ll like it.
