I really apprecaite your support and oh, almost forgot, Analman who has been sending anal stretchers and other supplies to Lochai for EverythingButt sent me 2 honeycombs.

About 1980 I bought another vinyl version of the White Album and I taped it onto cassette as well as a reel to reel deck I had. Is that stealing? They did sell cassette tapes. When it was remastered I bought another copy, the third time I spent loot on the same album only this time it was a CD. I copied it, one for my car and one for in home use. Suppose I copied it once more for in office use. Is that stealing or should I buy the same recording 5 times over? Seems like a gray area to me. Nothing gray here. When you purchase an album, you buy two things: the plastic that the CD is made from (or vinyl the record was made of, etc etc) and a ...

• Charlotte Vale...... 9/22/2009 1:33:15 PM
  
  I'll have charlotte reply here later today, but briefly nothing shady or dramatic here. Spiegler is one of the very best agents in the industry, but with the economy being as it's been, and the amount of work being offered her at the moment, we felt it was in her best interests to pursue a different agency to get a fresh look at some new directors and companies. You'll find her on <link> . We can't thank Mark enough for launching her career, and showing us both the ropes. John Edited by - JohnHenry on 9/22/2009 1:34:10 PM

• How is double/triple anal not gay? 9/9/2009 6:01:01 AM
  
  Reading through this, a thought came to mind. Girl you're dating for a couple weeks wants to have some kinky fun. She pulls your pants off, sits you down, and ties a blindfold on. You enjoy a fantastic blowjob, and just as you're popping, she yanks off your blindfold, so you can see it's a man who was doing the deed. Are you gay? Our bodies respond to physical stimulation, be it a man, woman, or a trashbag you're fucking. Babies aren't born gay or straight (exactly) but rather they're socialized to be straight/gay/whatever. When a man's tossed in prison for twenty years, you better believe he's going to be 'socialized' to get tough, or get 'gay.' Male talent can choose not to do BBG scenes, sure. It's a quick way to leave the thought in age...

  BlackSix wrote: It's strange because I read this idea pretty regularly but one of the things that attracted me to black-on-black and IR porn, beside the hot black and latina ladies and nice asses, was that the sex tended to be LESS focused on degradation and conventional porn notions of 'domination' and the sex seemed more fun and less po-faced. Hiya BlackSix, Dominant/submissive interactions are pretty high on my interest (I literally just came home from the dungeon, after pounding two lovely asses into bright red purple welts with bloodspots under the skin.) My interest isn't in seeing the girls roughed up per se, but actually dominated. Domination, for me, has nothing to do with forcing a girl to do things she doesn't want to do. Domina...

  Nimrod wrote: You are making a great point but there is a big difference between a girl refusing to do IR sex and a man refusing to do Gay porn. Just like there is a difference between refusing to do IR sex and doing animal sex. Being gay or straight is your genes. Refusing to work with men doesn't mean that you find men unattractive...it means you are not genetically wired to do it. I think Brad Pitt isn't a bad looking man and on the other hand I think Rosie O'Donnel is ugly, but because I'm straight, if i'm given the choice I will take Rosie. A straight man will take an ugly woman over a super sexy man anyday. The logic behind not doing IR is attractiveness, so you are comparing oranges to apples. I disagree. For $50,000, I could fuck a...

• One thing I dont get about IR Porn 9/4/2009 10:01:17 PM
  
  Heya Supa, You're confusing marketing techniques with personal agendas. Lots of girls shoot with guys that they wouldn't give the time of day to, in their personal lives. For an adult actress, the decision to do interracial scenes or not is often a business decision. The decision to go into porn is also a business decision. I'm not into guys. If I were told that if I didn't have sex with men on camera, I wouldn't have a chance at a career in porn, trust me I'd still be configuring Linux machines. This doesn't mean I'm 'too good' for a guy, it doesn't mean I'm gender biased, it doesn't mean I don't respect men. It means that as a business decision, I've chosen *not* to do gay or bi scenes (and believe me, gay male talent often make more than...

  mharris127 wrote: Thanks -- that is what I thought, but I try not to run off the cuff if I am not sure. I would have to agree on autofocus -- on older cameras especially it usually focused in on the closest object, not necessarily the one you want. Even my new cheaper automatic lens still errs occasionally (and there is no way to change that lens), but it works for family portraits and such things well. If I were in the industry, I would use a camera that has options for both for the reasons you state so well. Really, a lot of people do go the less expensive route. Expensive, complicated cameras can mean longer, frustrating shoots with more features and options to screw up. That translates to months of practice that you could have been foc...

  mharris127 wrote: I don't know if you are talking about stationary or video pictures with that &quot;pretty girl&quot; lens, John, but I can remember using a manual-focus lens for both stationary (I was in the yearbook club at my secondary school) and the one on my first home video camera in the early 80's. &quot;Pretty girls&quot; are what we call the still images we shoot before the video. They're the shots that end up on the boxcovers (front and back), teaser photos, promotional photos, etc. They're just simple portrait photos shot while the girl is looking her best (i.e. just out of makeup and wardrobe.) I usually start in auto focus, then make minor adjustments in manual focus. The autofocus can only do so much; if she's lying down w...

The content makers and hardware makers and technology licensers will always battle, which will make for a bumpy ride for consumers. There will always be competition amongst content/hardware makers to carve out an exclusive niche for themselves, which means the seams will always be glaringly obvious. I should have clarified; the codecs and technology may not necessarily be seamless, but the online delivery systems today surpass their predecessors by leaps and bounds. Seven years ago, a ...

  Take heart, folks. Ten, possibly fifteen years from now, you won't 'own' any media. Technically, you don't 'own' the movies and music on your shelf today; you own discs that contain digital information that the company you purchased it from has licensed to you. Come 2025 as bandwidth and internet access becomes more common than running water, you'll stream that media directly from whomever or whatever company owns that media to your television, computer, or iphone successor a la the system Netflix employs to stream movies. It'll happen smoothly, seamlessly, and would leave it's consumer base scratching their head wondering &quot;why on earth would I want stacks and stacks of discs laying around anyway?&quot; John

• AIDS Healthcare Files Complaints On 16 Porn Compan 9/2/2009 2:54:03 PM
  
  Hi Woody, Like I said before, it's already obvious that &quot;this is just how the industry is.&quot;, which appears to be the jist of your point. I made my suggestion earlier; that the major studios come together, contract an insurance company to treat any performer who's worked for them in the past 60 days to qualify for 'free' (to the performer) STD treatment. They can pass this cost on to performers on (say) a $10 per-shoot basis. Because all studios would be using the same company, there'd be no question as to which company is/was responsible for the insurance claim. Smaller studios would certainly follow suit. John

But, one thing that does bother me, is you never corrected yourself when you said I made a comment that Misty actually made. You called me a hypocrite, yet you were completely incorrect. What company do you shoot for? Do you have work comp? How many claims have you had? Briefly, I'm happy to correct myself; I misquoted Misty as you in the second half of my post. Be assured, I'm not attacking you personally here; I'm only debating the topics and issues at hand. You did neglect the first quote, which was yours, and chose not to respond to my comments on how you advocate that condoms should be the performer's choice, while making it clear that neither consumers nor di...

Hi Kenobi, I read the article you posted. Here's the last paragraph: So what's the problem with music? The study echoes many of the observations you've read here at Ars.
