You know, when we called Maverick yesterday to joyously tell him about the new Kristal Summers post from his trip here, he said, “Hey! Remember that I was going to announce the new Kristal videos on 247 and I made you screen grabs for Carol so you could put that part on risqué and talk about it too?” … And then we said something like, “Oh, yeah. That’s right. … Um. … BYE.” (Sometimes the Brits just don’t seem to understand the whole joyous appreciation of life thing. Have you noticed?) … So anyway we might be putting up this Kristal solo in the wrong order, but it won’t matter much in the long run. Brits may not be the most joyous folks, but Americans can flat rewrite History with the better than most anyone. [FEATURED TAGS: 247 AdultStars.com, Kristal Summers]

Kristal Summers cooling off in the office. It was distracting.

Well, it’s summertime for sure, and although perhaps not technically “easy” these days, it sure beats the heck out of the alternative. Besides, one of our favorite philosophies has always been, “If it were easy, anyone could do it.” … That said, Kristal Summers offers up a little proof that it’s a nice way for a white bedding, and any time you can get a solo Kristal into the same paragraph with Billy Idol and George and Ira Gershwin, well it seems like a pretty successful day all the way around to us.

Living with Kristal Summers seems like it would be easy, white bedding or not.

“Titillating” seems to be a reasonable goal around here, and sometimes we even manage to accomplish that without resorting to the obvious pun references the word implies. Theoretically we set out today to allow you members to see a much more visual distinction between the “Las” Vegas Adult Convention and the “Los” Angeles Adult Convention. D.Minion provides some highlights of the former while we wait for Lon on the latter. Now the LA part this year involved trips to (count ’em) three new restaurants, though, including one rather lavish buffet, albeit perhaps not up to Las Vegas standards. We will see. Those of you that have been around awhile will know how much Lon appreciates a good meal, and will consequently understand the labor-intensiveness of his current assignment. Then, as current events have a way of doing around here, more titillation has been ensuing, and we’re helpless to avoid its pull. At the very least, we entertain ourselves. But feel free to pop along for the ride. It’s always interesting. (That’s a Chinese curse, right?)

We have a “Wilde” “Trinity” (with a triptych) today. And we even lay out our insightful version of the simple “Vachs” at risqué . Sometimes it’s confusing enough just saying what it is; have you ever noticed that? It may, however, lead to simpler understanding as you go through life. Thus, you may feel free to spend the rest of the week asking, “What it is?” to everyone you meet. At the very least you’ll amuse yourselves, and if that’s not the mark of a supremely successful life, we certainly can’t think of what it might be. [FEATURED TAGS: Inari Vachs, Kylie Wilde, Trinity]

Sadly, as a result of the recent major earthquake, one of the giant pandas at the Wolong Research Center in China lost its life. As do people throughout the world the children of the land love the pandas, prompting one distraught youngster to question which fine animal passed away. “Who died, papa? Which one was it? Papa, papa, who?” … At least this was how one of the major networks here reported the news. Probably because of time constraints the network cut away before airing the father’s reply, but we’re pretty sure it went something along the lines of “Papa, papa who? Mao Mao.” (… And if you know how to pronounce the most famous leader of the People’s Republic of China to date, and know a little American popular music history, well, it won’t make that the most impressive joke you’ve ever heard, but it will help a lot with understanding it.) … Fortunately today we’re taking a video look at our old friend Cheyenne Silver, and we’re not even mentioning a thing about natural disasters anymore. Still, it’s good to remain at least somewhat aware of world events, and it is Father’s Day, so we had to at least mention dads out there. (Besides, they might know The Beach Boys in China.)

Well, we have to start somewhere, so we might as well start with the artistic angle, right? Or maybe we should start with the bizarre. That’s always fun. … Or we could show off some fancy Photoshop collages too; that would be nice, as would a custom video segment showing off the general weirdness of our existence. Those are always popular. … So that’s how we started bright and early this morning, and then we figured out that we’re in LA, and we just got back from Erotica LA …. And that pretty much ties together all these things. OK. So it’s not earth-shattering logic, but we’re really a lot better after a few cups of coffee. [FEATURED TAGS: Erotica LA, Exclusive Video, Maverick]

Bizarreness is in the eye of the beholder too.
6/5/08

Ah, but we love the BTS footage. We find it a wonderful way to really see not so much what movie sets are like (because even if you’ve never been on one you’ve probably seen enough clips on television to pretty much know what they’re like) but because this type of footage gives the most accurate capture of the moods of the actors and actresses at a precise moment in time. (And you’ve probably seen enough clips on television to know that those little moods are nothing if not volatile too.) As is his now tradition, Maverick has also put together some screen grabs for Carol, since she still can’t see video on the web, as most of you probably know even if you’re not a member. By our estimation, Mav’s either a very nice man, has a not-so-secret crush on Carol … or he just thinks it would be very handy to marry an American. … For today, color us cynical and entertained.

Oh, we’re learning a lot today. We have a functional display of the typical interaction between the Homo sapien male and female. We investigate the inherent quirkiness of cab drivers around the world. We highlight a bit of the cultural differences just the distance of one ocean can create, oh, and we talk about the weather. All in all, just consider it another day of Maverick Adventures with Isabella Kay. [FEATURED TAGS: 247AdultStars.com, Isabella Kay Video, Exclusive Video]

And now for something completely different. … OK. So those of you that have been members for some time probably realize that one could use that particular sentence referring to just about anything we’ve ever done around here. But we did make a conscious effort this time. After our last “topless girls pretending to wrestle” effort, we decided we should do something as far away from that “fluff” as possible. It didn’t take very long for someone to say, “Well, D.Minion on any of the Neo_ sets would fit that bill perfectly.” We decided this to be perfectly true, and so we’re heading into this particular “matrix” with DM on the set of Neo_Pornographia 4 – because why in the world would we start with number one, after all? Oh, and the person that came up with this idea has now received a very public “Thank You” for the suggestion, which turns out to be a lot cheaper than giving them an actual raise in salary.

After surveying a very knowledgeable group of people deeply involved in the porn business, here is what we can definitively explain about the breadth of human sexuality: “We have no idea if limits even exist, and we’ve long ago stopped looking for them.” Great. That helps a lot. … Quite honestly what we’re talking about this time really looks a lot like a significantly more amateurish and topless version of the WWF – or any other of those confusing wrestling acronyms. Still, those poor souls don’t have Kristal Summers and Charlie Laine in the ring. … Um, so WE WIN! … Don’t you just love it when that happens? [FEATURED TAGS: Kristal Summers, Charlie Laine]

It might actually be “all in a name” – if you’re like a philosopher or something. If you still have to pay your rent every month, though, erudite musings really lose their luster quickly. So we thought we’d offer the one super-secret to success in the movie business today, and we thought we’d use the adorable Cassidey as sort of a visual aid. If you get to choose, we’d always suggest picking beautiful naked women to help you out. Just put an “e” on the end of the “aid” word. [FEATURED TAGS: Cassidey Video, Exclusive Video]

Cassidey. She of many names.

The annual Adult Entertainment Expo can be a deeply personal experience, as any of you that have been members for very long can attest. … That’s one of the themes for today, as we pay necessary homage to the American writers in the fold. It seems that we’ve been ignoring those particular contributions, but we can assure you that it’s only because of volume rather than malice. (Never attribute to malice what stupidity can adequately explain.) If we give you another quote it may help: “It actually looks as though Sunset Thomas may have some new competition in the “Best Star to Get Multiple Photos With” category. Being the consummate professional, and purely dedicated to the edification of the risqué Member, however, Lon probably forgot to enjoy this at all. … Probably.” Or it may not help at all. We can never tell.  [FEATURED TAGS: Adult Entertainment Expo, Sunny Lane, Celeste Star, Kylie Ireland, Sunset Thomas, Jessica Drake Audio, Shane Audio, Exclusive Audio, Steve, Lon]

Thus speaks anew the U. K. contingent. (Well, it’s really just Mav and a U. K. production company that we work with, but “contingent” sounds much better, don’t you think?) And although technically this would just be Maverick’s experiences and photos of Day Two of the AEE, when you’re talking about U. K. folks you get to say fun things like “thus speaks anew” – and that’s fun.

In an unusual twist, even for us, we’ve set about a Variation on a Theme as we continue a bit with Ms. Kylie today. Well, maybe it’s really more of an Extrapolation on a Theme … or really even more precisely an Extrapolation on a Hypothetical Theme. … Come to think of it, maybe it’s best if we just stop trying to explain it and let you get to it. Begin with this: Nudity as Life …. [FEATURED TAGS: Kylie Wylde]

3/10/08

We’re going in search of Kylie today, although which one remains a bit of some conjecture. Now you have to consider that there are a few of them in XXX now, and then you have to factor in that each “persona” in our business tends to take on a wide variety of incarnations over time. So depending on which Kylie, at which point in her career, that we get, the impact could change a lot. On the upside, naked females enjoying themselves has always seemed like a dandy control group to us.. Don’t you just love our science? [FEATURED TAGS: Kylie Wylde Video, Exclusive Video]

Kylie Wylde. And we believe she might be.
3/8/08

Have you ever spent a few weeks watching people getting bloodied in a bunch of, although certainly creative, relatively messy ways? … That doesn’t matter. … You know what’s better? … Looking at lots of pictures of Kristal Summers naked. … Now granted looking at lots of pictures of Kristal Summers naked pretty much beats anything, but this time you can also listen to interviews of Ninn Worx Producer, Lorraine Sisco, and risqué Friend Kylie Ireland while away a little time with D.Minion as she played around with some new toys. (Before you get too excited here, we should tell you that it was just a new digital recorder and had nothing to do with the more traditional “adult novelties” as you may have come to think of them. On the other hand, we do have those pictures of Kristal Summers naked. Could be worse. (Horror movies are bloody. Have you ever noticed?)

Ever think about traveling with a porn star? … We mean seriously think about it. … Well, it can be an interesting experience, if for no other reason than looking at the people’s faces around you when you walk into an airport, or a hotel, or any other “normal civilization” location. Today we thought we’d give you a little previously unseen exposure to what it can be like – with, say, Inari Vachs. Upon reflection you’ll probably like the way we think.

Sometimes you just need to look at something from a different perspective to recognize the obvious. Of course usually the new “angle” on everything also brings its own myriad of confusion, but if you try to boil it down to its essence, the situation often becomes more clear. Then you can add in a little scientific analysis and that might help, and you might even consider a dash of philosophy or even a metaphysical conceit or two if you’re really brave. Very soon everything will just look even more complicated than it was before started trying to look at it clearly and so you just wing it and hope for the best. That’s what we do. It may not work all of the time, but it makes for a nice way to go through life. [FEATURED TAGS: Jana Jordan, Lena Nicole, Renna Ryann, Sophia Lynn, Exclusive Video]

We’ve been working madly way behind the scenes here, and there’s a big announcement on the horizon. Oddly enough, it’s not nearly as distant a horizon as many we’ve foretold around here, so that’s nice. Maverick’s also chiming in today about what he’s going to be doing, which doesn’t help all that much, but he’s also got an exclusive “view” (and we mean that literally) of a famous British porn star named Sandie. Odd, but we still think of the Olivia Newton John character in Grease when we hear that name. … Hmm. We probably shouldn’t admit that, right? … Oh, and incidentally, we have no idea why Maverick takes pictures of upside down naked women, and we really didn’t want to ask.

What could be better than “Dee Penetrated” you may wonder. Well, apparently it could be Dee Exposed, because … well, you’ll have to read about it if you really care. Dee herself didn’t seem to mind whatever title we used, as she was just along for the ride … so to speak. Another thing that’s really, really good is a fresh bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich when the bacon is hot and thick-sliced, and the tomatoes are vine-ripened, but honestly we can only give you D.Minion’s account of our Delectable Dee today. You’ll have to make your own lunch. [FEATURED TAGS: Dee, Michael Ninn, D.Minion]

It could be that a little bit of thinking goes a long way when you’re talking about your basic porn site. Of course our goal has never been to BE “your basic porn site” so you would think that we could think – and you’d then think that our thinking made you think. Which might not be as helpful as you might have thought it was going to be, truth be told. We’d tell you what we think about this, but we’ve clearly done more than enough thinking to last us for quite some time. Don’t you think?

7/11/07

Most of the time we choose to be a little more forthcoming out here on the free side, but every once in awhile it suits one to be a little more circuitous in our approach. That’s OK. If we tell you we have some “secret stuff” to talk about (and show off) today, and then we tell you what it is … well, it wouldn’t be a secret anymore, now would it? Sometimes the simple approach works best, which happens to be another lesson we hope to demonstrate. [FEATURED TAGS: Julia Ann, Juli Ashton Video, Michael Ninn, Exclusive Video, D.Minion]

Julia Ann ... touching, isn't she?
7/7/07

Well, we made it through the post, but it was a weird one. Of course we can say that almost all of the time, so maybe that doesn’t mean much. Still, not all of the posts are about Erotica Los Angeles, 2007 so that’s one difference. And at first blush while all of these conventions seem pretty much the same (especially to those of us that have been to 50+ of them) they all have their own … um … uniqueness, let’s call it. Of course there seemed to be surprisingly little blushing on the show floor this year, well except from Lon and D.Minion while they were smothered on a bed by Julia Ann’s breasts right in the middle of the crowd on Saturday. Well, maybe you’ll have to read about it. Some things are too weird even for us to explain. [FEATURED TAGS: Erotica LA, Stormy Daniels, Jessica Drake, Julia Ann, Lon]

We’re putting on an “Innocent” front today, at least while we’re putting the final touches on the Lon/D.Minion story of Erotica LA this year. We haven’t heard from his doctors but last we saw Lon he was still gasping from rolling around on the bed with Julia Ann – which seems perfectly understandable if you think about it. So you can take a moment to ponder how this might have come about in the first place, and then you can try to figure out how these two words go together Innocence: Rebel. We figure it’s only in the world of Michael Ninn, but that’s always an OK place to be, so we’re just going to go with it. We’ve seen the pictures, though, and while “rebellious” might come to mind, we didn’t get many “innocent” vibes here. Naturally, of course, we consider this to be a very good thing.

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.

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.

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]

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]

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 ….
