Some Nice Things:

Since it was said that I don't have anything nice to say about anyone or anybody and since I am in a rather happy mood today I am going to write some nice things, about people in porn even. You see there are some people in porn whom I think stand out, people who are all around decent folks, in no particular order.

Samantha Lewis at Digital Playground, Ya I roughed up "Rush" a bit but Samantha is sharp and tough with a pile of good business sense. She has been enormously successful in this business while never being slutty, she top notch and in my opinion, one of, if not the best businessperson in porn.

Bob Verna at Hollywood Video, If you saw Bob you never guess he had two nickles to rub together. You'd be VERY wrong. Bob is an all around nice guy who goes WAY back in this biz, I don't know of anyone who has ever said anything bad about Bob, he has always been straight up with me about whatever he thought.

Tod Hunter at AVN, an intelligent and genuinely nice guy, someone I like to sit and have a beer with and shoot the shit.

Paul Fishbein, what can I say about "Fish" as he is affectionately called. He came out of nowhere with the right product at the right time, he made shrewd business decisions that paid off and he made himself arguably, the most powerful man in porn. He has always been nothing but nice to me and I have always appreciated that.

Adella O'Neal. She is an amazing PR person, if Tera or Devon passes gas Adella knows about it and makes sure we do too. It takes hard work a dedication to convince the world that 2 Movies a year make Tera a megastar, specially in this day and age in porn. She is unflappable she is intelligent and she is also just plain nice.

Jenna Jameson. While I have had some fun with Jenna she IS a porn superstar, thanks to dedication and hard work on the part of her and Joy King. Jenna has come a long way from the shy little girl I met in Tampa Florida at the Nightmoves Show yars ago. Jenna has never been anything but nice to me.

Harry Weiss. What can I say about Harry except if he read this and saw Adella and not himself he'd have an email in my mailbox before I could close my FTP program. And that my friends is the mark of a good PR guy. Harry is witty, funny and a helluva good guy.

Tim Lake. A bit goofy but smart (he gave me my first job in porn) Tim took a company in financial ruin and made it successful, along with his brother Moffit.

Ron Jeremy. I love Ronnie, since the very first day I met him Ron made me feel like a part of this business, he is a funny guy and he has been the butt of some of my pratical jokes, but he takes it in the spirit intended. Ronnie is the most recognizeable porn star and he is the only one to maintain any degree of mainstream success while still staying in porn. Ronnie is good natured and a true legend in porn.

Bill Margold. Margold may be controversial as hell but I respect him and I like him because he believes in what he does, I may not agree but I would never say that the man has a disingenuous bone anywhere in his body. Not only that his heart, well it's as big as his ego, and if ya know Bill well thats pretty fuckin big.

Jared Rutter. I don't think there is a nicer guy in all of porn, Jared is probably the only male in porn that I would trust in a room alone interviewing Cori Love. He integrity, period.

Henri Pachard aka Ron Sullivan, is another guy who has always made me feel welcome in porn, he is articulate and he has a long and distinguished career in this biz, when he emails me or says hello it makes me proud.

John Leslie. here is a guy who has been in porn since I was old enough to watch porn, he has seen it all, yet he too always recognizes me, always says hello and greets me by name. He adapted and stayed with porn knowing when to bow out and stay behind the camera.

Joey Silvera. He was my biggest surprise in porn, he is very shy he is also very respectful and a helluva nice guy, like John Leslie, Joey knew when to bow out.

John Stagliano. If John isn't the best businessman in porn he is the shrewdest. In a business where most people are lucky to clear past due invoices in a year Evil Angel carries very little past due accounts, he got a product that stores had to stock to be successful, he makes the distributors buy minimums of everything Evil puts out, he doesn't let them return and he doesn't go to catalog. He may rule Evil Angel with an iron fist but by God he knows what he is doing.

Serenity. She has always had class, something this business sorely lacks. Srenity and hubby Steve Lane are excellent business people and plain old nice folks.

There are a lot of others and they know who they are, people in porn I call my friends, Melissa Hill, Midori, Anna Malle and Hank Armstrong, Dirty Bob, Tim Case and Felicia Fox, Quasarman, JimmyD ( I am the one who tagged him with that nickname...ask him...) and many others.

The bottom line is while all the folks are the best articles like this one just aren't very interesting, or funny, and as such aren't very entertaining. My job here is to entertain my readers. If my writing here is a "war cry" well maybe we should take a look at ourselves we all know that porn and its people are full of absurdity and that just makes for a big target and a funny one.

Ok maybe tomorrow or later today I will resume being "The Mouth of the South"

Till then lets all have a big group hug and come out fighting.

Just Damn!:

I just knew I'd kick myself for forgetting someone from the list below and I did, oddly enough it's prolly the one guy I have the most respect for. You see Dave Cumming is a real American hero, he sacrificed over twenty years of his life to serve in the United States Armed Forces. He put his life on the line for our liberty. Most in porn don't know it but Dave has a very distinguished background in the service, he was a Lt. Colonel, an advisor to the Joint Chiefs of Staff and an instructor at West Point Military Academy. When he said "jump" America's best said "how high" on the way up!. People who serve in the military honorably all deserve our support and our thanks it is the result of what that do that we stay free. PS He is one helluva nice guy too!
