Back when the Old Stuff was New Stuff

2/26/13 Those of you that have been desperately waiting for D.Minion’s coverage of Day Four of the 2013 AEE can finally shout with joy. Those of you that have not been desperately waiting, well, that’s what we offer up today anyway. Feel free to catch the last of the 2,000+ hours of coverage on the NFL combine if you remain confused about what truly boring means. [FEATURED TAGS: AEE 2013, Shayla LaVeaux, Julia Ann, Nina Hartley, Eva Angelina, Skin Diamond, Cytherea Exclusive Video]
For the record, we are not shocked. Sad, maybe.
2/21/13 What do you get when you combine three very busty women in teeny-tiny bikinis, a hot California day, a secluded “lawn,” and a grimy automobile? Well, if you’re D.Minion — and Kristal Summers happens to be one of those three women — you get excellent web site content (accent at the first). Not surprisingly, afternoons like this tend to make everyone concerned content (accent on the second syllable) as well. Very large breasts are all well and good, but don’t you just love brazen word play?

Beyond a Shadow of a Route
2/18/13 Those of you keeping track or our weekly story roll-outs might have been desperately looking forward to D.Minion’s account of Day Three at the AEE 2013. Sadly, for you, D.Minion did not actually attend the convention on this day, because she decided to go to a porn shoot with Shayla. Consequently we had to come up with another plan. Those not desperately looking forward to more AEE coverage will be thrilled. But we should probably keep that to ourselves, should D.Minion enter the room.

2/14/13 What would Valentine’s Day be without being able to watch two adult stars masturbate each other? Of course we do not wish to discourage more traditional forms of romance, but if you can work Shayla LaVeaux and Kristal Summers into your evening, you might be surprised what comes up — or maybe not, come to think of it. At any rate, we probably will not be able to do any television commercials for this activity any time soon, but in our opinion this beats the heck out of candy and flowers. [FEATURED TAGS: Shayla LaVeaux Exclusive Video, Kristal Summers Exclusive Video, Cytherea]
Love is in the Air
2/11/13 One of the “dating” sites recently published a survey wherein they concluded that 12% of women, and 45% of men, feel sex on the first date to be appropriate. From this bit of knowledge, we determined that either 33% of the men are having sex with each other, or those 12% of women are having a lot of first dates. Statistical play aside, it can be slightly disconcerting to delve too far into another person’s mind — a belief we support skillfully in Day Two of D.Minion’s 2013 Adult Entertainment Expo experience. [FEATURED TAGS: AEE 2013, Christy Canyon, Ginger Lynn, Julia Ann, Alana Evans, Sunset Thomas Exclusive Video, Shayla LaVeaux, Misty Stone, Jessica Drake Exclusive Video]
Not Actually a “Donut,” Per Se
2/7/13 If you lack an ability to completely change your plans at the last possible second, well, then you should probably not come to work for any of the Risqué Commune sites. Of course if you do not work for any of the Risqué Commune sites, then you will miss out on a lot of fun. Then again, we do tend to tease our friends a bit mercilessly at times, and once we start, even moving halfway around the world to London will not necessarily stop us. Ask Maverick.

Unnecessary Instructions
2/5/13 A new year brings about a new Adult Entertainment Expo, and this year brings about yet another attempt at handling the idiosyncrasies of D.Minion. Of course that concept remains a questionable goal when the retention of sanity comes into consideration as well, but Shayla LaVeaux and Kristal Summers in attendance this time at least help ameliorate the effects of rampant confusion. Of course a sex toy that requires one to run around in a circle in order to use it seems pretty silly, but maybe we just don’t see the big picture. [FEATURED TAGS: AEE 2013, Shayla LaVeaux Exclusive Video, Kristal Summers Exclusive Video, Julia Ann, Francesca Le’, Alexandra Silk]
Monitoring Kristal Summers
2/2/13 According to the rampant advertisements, CBS plans to run a “special” episode of Hawaii Five-O this week by filming a modern take on an old popular script. Strange, but we have been doing that sort of thing for years around here. Ever wonder why CBS never hires us to consult on the programming decisions? Well, it could be that we tend to throw Kristal Summers, Dee, and Kylie Ireland (and many other people) into orgies when we program. Networks can be such fuddy-duddies.

If someone gives you an extra-special, handy-dandy, super-secret coupon, it’s pretty easy to just throw it away. However, if someone gives you this coupon along with a whole bunch of other fascinating memories, well, then, you can spend an hour or two being entertained — before you throw the coupon away. Still, we’re covering Members and Memories today, and that seems apropos for Memorial Day. (You will need to supply your own beverage and BBQ. Sorry about that.)

Memories of the Heather Vuur Mammaries
5/26/12

Looks count apparently. Consequently a couple of talented folks spent some time on presentation this time around, although honestly the fact that you’re presenting Kristal Summers, Julia Ann, and Steve (before he left too early) doesn’t hurt one’s dedication to the effort. Sadly limited to only a “Virtual Dee” this time around, D.Minion nonetheless managed to work in yet another reference to donuts with sprinkles. Maybe it comes from hanging out with all those sweet women … maybe. [FEATURED TAGS: Dee, Julia Ann, Nina Hartley, Kristal Summers, Shayla LaVeaux Video, Michael Ninn]

Shayla Floating in Here Somewhere Too
5/23/12

Regardless of one’s level of education, we all seem to be susceptible to the devilish “grass is greener” trap. Even if we happen to be exceptionally talented in one area, we all display an apparently human desire to do something else. Well, just so you know, that doesn’t always work out exactly as we anticipated. It does not diminish the “fun to try” factor any, though, and so around risqué we tend to let people play a bit when they feel the urge. Honestly, this should be the last place anyone ever discourages urges, right? … By the way, do you think rock stars sit around lamenting, “Dang, but I surely do wish I could do web code!” before they go to bed every night? [FEATURED TAGS: Cytherea Exclusive Video, Kaz B., 247AdultStars.com]

More Fun Than Geekdom Really
5/18/12

Today happens to be all about Shayla LaVeaux, which honestly would make any day a darned special occasion. Everyone loves Shayla, to tell you the truth, mostly because she’s kind, considerate of the feelings of others, and even after all these years in the industry still goes out and puts “fun” first in everything she does. Of course the fact that she’s sexy as all get out doesn’t hurt anything either. Life being what it is, though, somehow all of us people that love Shayla don’t get treated exactly the same way as some of the people that Shayla loves back. Presumably that has something to do with the whole sexy as all get out thing. … That bites. [FEATURED TAGS: Shayla LaVeaux, Alexandra Silk, Carmen Luvana]

The Disrobe of Many Colors
5/14/12

Having gotten quite confused over the weekend with what we had as a plan to introduce Cytherea’s site wishes, we came into work this morning to the greetings of all those annoying “stickler for a schedule” types pointing out that we sort of forgot to put up what we were supposed to. Fortunately, a healthy dose of humor goes a long way in these parts, so we managed to sneak by with our illustration from yesterday, if we promised to put up the “other” Cytherea post today. More Cytherea? … No one can see a down side in that.  [FEATURED TAGS: Cytherea]

A Sky High Sigh from Cy
5/13/12

We celebrate “Mom” today, even as the rest of the country does the same thing. Granted, as a general rule we probably celebrate the process in which women become moms a bit more than does the average person, but as difficult as it may be to believe for the politically conservative out there, we have mothers too. We also have fathers. … And pretty much after that everything is different.  [FEATURED TAGS: Cytherea Exclusive Video]

Toe-Tally Devoted to Mom
5/10/12

Today we’re doing something a little different, which considering our usual method of operation probably provides no practical clues as to our intent at all. Even we couldn’t remember the last time we did something “normal” when we tried to think about it. That said, we have never used this particular approach before. You see, our leader actually wrote an article for the FREE SIDE of risqué, and then we adapted that document to the MEMBERS’ SIDE of our world. Members may not even realize it, because why would you ever go back to the Free Side, after all, but we (sporadically) run “web safe” stories out there with the hopes of finding new folks that might enjoy our approach in here. Of course they are rarely truly “topical” — often running years after they appeared in the Members’ Area — but we spend the vast majority of our time taking care of Members, so this approach has always seemed logical to us. This time, we got instructions to flip that approach completely around. We have no idea why, but however odd we may be, we also have a decidedly prudent streak. We do what the boss says.

Holly Hollywood & Dee Enjoying Their Friendship
5/7/12

We always celebrate Cinco de Mayo in this office, either because we’re extraordinarily culturally aware, or we just love dark-skinned women. That could be it too. Of course it could also be that for whatever reason we all really love very spicy Mexican food. But that could be simply because initial interviews are always done at a local “Cantina” and anybody that wimps out over the chile verde never gets hired. Our own “El Jefe” disputes that last claim, but interestingly that’s not quite the same thing as denying it. … Now this year the holiday came on a Saturday, and what with all the work we’ve been doing on the new catalogue, in a rare turn of events every one of us had the weekend off. Fortunately we suffered no digital disasters in our absence, but we did miss the celebration. Consequently we’re celebrating Siete de Mayo this year. Tequila makes one quite adaptable, after all.  [FEATURED TAGS: Cytherea]

Dee. Puerto Rican, but Worth Celebrating Anyway.
5/1/12

So if you spend a few hundred words trying to explain just how well you can be brief, well, that sort of seems to miss the point, right? If, however, a lovely lass such as Shayla LaVeaux makes the request, you certainly try your darnedest to accommodate her. We may not have done an exemplary job per se, but if you look at it honestly we nonetheless feel rather fine about the issue. How many times in life has a pretty girl reduced a group to a bunch of blithering idiots, after all?

As near as we can tell, today happens to be New Year’s eve, and most places around the world happen to celebrate the new year with substantially more vigor and glee than they do any of those gift-giving holidays. Of course the vast majority of the world has at least a culture, but often an entire political system, that stems in no small degree from religious persecution, so maybe that makes sense. After all, it seems very wise to focus more on a day of the year you won’t get shot for celebrating, right? For our part, we have decided to stick to our roots as well. What they lack in historic violence and upheaval, they more than make up for in fun and nudity. This doesn’t set the bar very high, we understand, but as a rule we tend to prefer simple goals. (You members may have noticed.) And if D.Minion happens to discover our camouflaged secret, well, we plan on employing the exact same New Year’s Resolution we enjoy every year: Blame Maverick for everything.

People do sometimes contribute to their own “Birthday Party” as Shayla has decided to do so today. True to at least our form, she chose to celebrate “Holliday” over the Holidays, and offers up some insights as to what it’s like being in the middle of 30 or 40 women all having sex together. Sadly, none of us here can really comment on this experience first-hand, but we do have a great many folks willing to learn. We value education, after all.

Nice Day for White Bedding

So did you sleep with thoughts of Sugar-Plums dancing through your head? Have you ever done that in your whole life? Would you even know a Sugar-Plum if it jumped out of the closet and bit you? And when is the last time you heard anyone exclaim, “My! What a clatter!” anyway? The fact that people around here spend time pondering such weighty issues serves as the only excuse I can think of for this Merry Christmas … um … Members’ Card. I worry about us sometimes. I really do. [FEATURED TAGS: Merry Christmas!]

You may not find it intuitive, but the adult movie industry happens to display a great deal of holiday cheer among its members. Of course you can’t really have a properly caroling environment without Ebenezer Scrooge, and thus we speak today with sincere affection for our friend Gregory Dark. True, we have chosen to do so with the able assistance of Juli Ashton, Kelly O’Dell, Felecia, and Serenity, but in our defense we claimed to be festive — not foolish. Why listen to some old fat guy that’s not planning on dropping down any chimneys tonight when you fill your silent nights with young ladies clearly coming about midnight? … There are way too many seasonal songs to consider. We’d best stop now. [FEATURED TAGS: Juli Ashton Video, Kelly O’Dell Video, Felecia Video, Serenity Video]

Kelly. Do we hear what she hears?
12/21/11

This is the time of year where we all get a little nostalgic; we all feel a little more optimistic, a little more peaceful. Benevolent tendencies, long hidden throughout the year, come closer to the surface, and we allow ourselves to pause a few more times during the day, just to feel a part of Mother Earth. … Or if you happen to be like us, you praise Rednecks everywhere, and wonder why everyone doesn’t celebrate the way we do. You forgive them, however, because let’s face it: If you go around saying everything you really think, no one is ever going to give you a gift — at least not one you’ll want to receive.

We all know ‘Tis the Season of Giving, but let’s be honest, it’s pretty fun to get new things too. And with any luck they won’t be the sorts of things that will live in a closet until next year when we can give them again. In a typically benevolent re-gifting game, then, we have decided to offer up some holiday gift suggestions before we shuttle everyone off to enjoy Cytherea playing fauna amongst the flora. D.Minion “naturally” adds her special touch, although DM can be a lot like a gift from a distant relative: You honestly appreciate it, but you’re just not quite sure how to explain it to anyone.

Barely Concealed Reverence
12/15/11

Rarely do we link directly to 247AdultStars.com — preferring rather to heighten anticipation, sweeten the experience, and generally make it more pleasantly pithy. … It’s either that or we pretty much like any excuse to show off more naked women. Theories may vary. All of this goes by the wayside this season, however, as Dear Maverick, being from London and thus used to a depressing Christmas season until the very last minute, has seen fit to visit a few ghosts on a couple of Brit Porn Stars and convince them to film a special holiday greeting for the members.

Contrary to D.Minion’s contention in the office, after making egg nog, they do not in fact use the rest of the animal to create Naugahyde seat covers. We try to be helpful with our insights here, just so no one gets confused as they go through life. You might consider, then, taking D.Minion’s view of Day Two of Ninn Worx’ House of Jordan shoot with a grain of salt — if not an entire spice rack. None of this detracts, however, from the 241 stellar photographs. … And how do we know these to be stellar photographs? Why all these women are stars, of course.

You know those kind of “entertainment” things where folks get really sort of devious and sneak in little bits and pieces that presumably will teach us something? Sure, they couch it all in some general “Oh, my goodness, but this is a lot of fun!” sort of way, but it always sort of sounds like Tom Sawyer and that fence painting job? … You will be happy to know that for our part we are simply celebrating Chasey Lain’s birthday today, and if anyone learns anything, well, dang that ain’t our fault.

We’ve heard a horrible rumor that some places out there have to deal with this bizarre phenomenon called “snow” — which basically sounds like a euphemism for “frozen water that can make life hell” if you want to know the truth. Having seen pictures of it on the news, we can tell you: It looks icky. We did want you to know, however, that we do have how own version of Snow out here, though, although admittedly ours happens to be of the “Aurora Snow” variety. … So you know what we call our Northern Lights? … Yep! … Aurora Areolas.

We could call this something philosophical today – like “Net Benefit” – but that would imply way too much economic thought when considering Maverick’s forays into the summertime debauchery that many, many beers in London can bring if you hang out with porn stars. Come to think of it, we should have learned after all these years not to even try to qualify Maverick with mere words. Pictures are better, and some of the videos aren’t even hopelessly dark. Bonus!

So most adult web sites probably don’t mention either Eugene O’Neill or Michael Landon in their typical discourse, and they certainly don’t weave them into the same conversation we’re guessing. That said, we’ve never made any claims to be on even the same planet as typical in this world, and we do talk about Nikki Kane enough that you can just ignore the old dead guys. That would certainly be cheerier. [FEATURED TAGS: Nikki Kane, Michael Ninn]

Many types of people end up in the “adult business” although many of them seem quite unwilling to accept it, or at least acknowledge it publicly. A quick trip through the latest “Novelty” convention has highlighted this little fact that we seem to forget, while Shayla choosing an outfit in which to attend a small-town produce “Festival” seems to demonstrate how seamlessly we adapt to the “regular” world. Overall, we seem to have an easier time with them than they do with us. You’d think they’d take lessons, right? [FEATURED TAGS: Shayla LaVeaux]

You just know you’ve made it as a major society in the History of the World when road construction in one of your major cities makes the international news. Either that, or you know it has been an amazingly slow news day. Well, you’ve got a much less painful option to consider over the weekend, and you won’t even have to think about “Carmageddon” in LA at all. The CyCAM makes its episodic debut today, and while potentially as noteworthy as shutting down the major North/South interstate in Los Angeles, it probably won’t make the television news anywhere. Pity, that. [FEATURED TAGS: Cytherea Exclusive Video]

Possibilities abound in this business in general, and unique potential multiplies geometrically around the risque communes. For example, sometimes the people that came up with the plan for a post don’t happen to be around when the time comes for other people to actually do the work. And sometimes that can be just a tad confusing. On the upside, this particular confusion involves Wendy Divine, Shayla LaVeaux, Aurora Snow, and Jenna Haze all in various states of nakedness. Come to think of it, we could more accurately have described “all of the various states” as completely. That would have worked too. See how confused we get?

As the temperatures rise across the country, getting wet seems like a wonderful idea a great deal of the time. Of course when you consider the juxtaposition of Cytherea and “wet” in a single sentence, the relevance of the outside temperature doesn’t really matter all that much. Now if with this introduction you might be forming an opinion as to Cytherea being a meteorologist of some sort, well, you clearly don’t know Cytherea all that well. Take heart (or whatever) in hand, though, for today you may learn much more about her. She loves D.Minion, you know. [FEATURED TAGS: Cytherea Exclusive Video, Michael Ninn]

Some of us consider our civic duty as males to play the chivalrous role, offering strength, comfort, guidance, and support to any lass potentially in a less than favorable situation. The fact that Uncle Gibby just happened to find himself called into action at a strip club where Bree Olson was headlining, well, that’s just a coincidence. He’s a dedicated lad, that Gibby. Rumor has it he’s also thinking of changing his name to “Jimmy” but you’ll have to follow along inside to understand his rationale. [FEATURED TAGS: Bree Olson Video]

We attended a workshop at a conference once where the speaker began his talk by saying, “We only walk by continually beginning to fall forward.” While we can’t really speak to the relevance for that specific workshop to what followed in our professional careers, since none of us can even remember which one it was – or even what city we were in when we heard it – we have employed the sentiment on occasion. For example, we can see how the theory applies to the freedoms celebrated in America on July 4th, even if many of us face $2,000 fines should we seek to create our own Rocket’s Red Glare instead of simply enjoying those of the government-sponsored variety. Perhaps most of all, however, Freedom (with a capital “F” don’t you know) allows us to voice introspection and illustrate our points with beautiful naked women. All in all that does seem safer than potentially blowing off your hand or burning the town down.
