By the time many of you read this, we will have elected a new President. By now, you all know where I stand, so I'll simply say that I hope you all took the time and voted for the candidate you think will best serve our country for the next four years.
Now, on to porn stuff. For those of you who may have missed it, October was a big month for the folks at Extreme Associates. They really threw everyone a curveball by hiring Gene Ross away from AVN. Gene has always had a thing for wrestling and will now get his chance at influencing the XPW.
With Gene on board, Extreme unveiled a very cool new box cover design. The foil look is very eye catching and original. (And how long before a half dozen companies are doing the same thing?) Then to really kick things off, Extreme released the first Thomas Zupko feature, "In the Days of Whore." I've done a full review of it, so check that out.
Briefly, I have to take my hats of to Zupko for this one. What can you say about a movie that has lepers raping milkmaids, Vikings hunting down wenches, Guys fucking until their dicks fall off (Literally) and a woman baptized in semen and urine? In all seriousness, this movie is one of the most original, though provoking porn films in a long time.
Yeah, I know, can you stroke to it? If you don't mind your sex brutal, your religious icons desecrated and a little blood mixed in with your smut. Read more from Zupko and Extreme director Luis Cypher in interviews coming soon.
With Gene Ross leaving AVN, there is a huge vacancy near the top of the food chain at the industry's top magazine. There have been a lot of names tossed about to replace Ross, but as of today, no successor has been named. Some of the more interesting names I've heard include Luke Ford, Mike South and Tod Hunter. So far, no one has even called me to discuss the position. Should I be hurt?
As an added treat, Sky is joined by Haven. It's been a while since this hot little number has been in a new video. Even surrounded by some seasoned girl on girl starlets, cute little Haven manages to shine.
Alex Ladd has been directing movies for Sin City in Europe for the past few weeks. His latest title, "Whoriental Sex Academy" is just hitting the shelves. If you have a thing for Asian girls in cute uniforms, you're going to love this one. Alex will be shooting a couple of new movies this month, including a cheerleader flick penned by you know who that should be quite a hit with the short skirt crowd.
What about Anabolic and Diabolic? Will they be nominated based on the quality of the body of their work, or the amount of money they didn't spend on advertising?
In case any of you missed the long lines at toy, department, game and electronic stores, Sony has released the long awaited Playstation II game system. Since the system plays DVDs, the adult industry is licking its chops. For years, adult game makers have been kept off the major game platforms.
Now that simple DVD technology will play on the new Playsation system, the adult companies will be falling over themselves to get some top notch X rated games into the market. It's bound to be an exciting year for adult themed games.
Since November is Thanksgiving month, let's all take a moment to remember the things we're thankful for. That goes double for Pete Sampras. It's not enough that the dude is the best freaking tennis player on the planet with more money than he could ever spend. Now he marries a complete piece of ass like Bridgette Wilson. So, here's hoping that all of you can find things that make you as damn happy to be alive as Pete.
