outsider, first off, im sorry i boosted your ego it was an honest mistake. pompusness like that i thought was one of a kind.

When you think of a TRUSTED source of information, you go to Luke FIRST. You do this, whether you want to admit it or not, because you know Luke can take the heat. He doesn't bow to advertisers, or threats from ex-cons who run porn companies

---

i don't consider luke a trusted sorce... in all the years i watched him he only covers the negative angle (for the most part) and if you are referring to who i think you are about the "ex-con", in my dealings with him he is a fine man who i trust far more than i ever would Luke.

What sucks is that I know I could give all you 'meat puppets' a good run for your money. Mr. Everhard's 'hate plow' is something I do on a regular, nightly basis. It comes easy.

I hope this never happens, but if you ever wake up one day with that 'it hurts when I pee' feeling, you may think of me.

well, i would say a comparison to a disease is appropriate... i promise when i go to AIM to pick up my antibiotics i will tell them i have a case of The Outsider.

Unfortunately, Americans aren't very good at visualizing bad things that may happen in the future. We kind of live on a day-to-day basis, and take things as they come...

Why?

Because we're cowboys, right?

---

actually, i visualize very far in advance. i think every move through.

I guess I'm a different kind of cowboy

nah... too easy, imma take the high road.

I especially don't like the odds for beautiful teenage KIDS who happen to be ANGRY and enter the industry without any sort of fair and balanced information.

---

im far from angry, and im no kid. i have been around or involved in adult entertainment most of my life... i grew up around it. i am aware of all of the risk... as for anger, anger is a wasted emotion. i say things to draw the truth from people sometimes, but never out of anger... when i say i dislike anyone it is not from anger or hatred, it is because they act with a certain level of ignorance.
i do agree that many performaers come in unaware of many of the risks, but they will not care if you tell them or not. it's a sad but true fact. ignorance is abound in every profession though... there are always those who wont take the proper precautions in their everyday job...not just in porn. but we do what we need to to keep safe.

Scott Fayner loves drugs. He wants a porn star for a wife. He's Jewish. And he loves drugs. Not a whole lot of both sides of the story coming from Scott Fayner.

---

i agree that Fayners drug use is bad... personally i have not touched a drug in 8 years. i feel they are evil in many ways. but you throw in that he is jewish as one of the bad things... that is frightening. that discounts any point you make... besides... luke is jewish too.

Adultfyi...well, they completely passed over the negative story of Chasey Lain because they couldn't 'confirm it'. That means they weren't working very hard. They missed the story. Then, when they got it, they tried to nail Luke for getting it. That's called 'sucky jounalism.

---

on this i disagree, while mike, luke and others were running with incomplete stories.. gene and wayne were being responsible trying to get the full and complete story, not going off of maybes. that is responsible journalism.

Quote:

Mike South...well, he still has a heart, but needs to acquire a backbone. Trying to please everyone won't make you happy, Mike. Learn from Luke. Just report the Truth, and stick to it, even if it makes you unpopular. It's better to be respected than loved. Love is fleeting.

---

im gonna stay out of this one, i consider mike a friend and he helped us get into the business, but i cannot always agree with him though. i didn't always agree with my father but i still loved him... i feel the same way about mike.

I hope you all hate my guts for saying the things I say.

I really do.

It's okay with me.

I'll always tell you the Truth

---

i dont hate, it is wasteful to spend energy on something like that. i would rather spend that energy on the things i love.

Quote:

---

As for you, Rob, I wish you the best.

If things always go okay, and you never catch anything, you'll probably hate me forever.

But if things go wrong, and you end up with something...

---

as i said, i dont waste time on hate, it is petty and better left aside. i dont have time for hate. i might notagree with what you say,but that does not mean i dislike you as a person. i think you really do feel you are trying to help. but i also feel you are slightly sociopathic, its ok, most of us are... but once you admit it you can see why people might take the things you say as sounding psychotic sometimes, bordering on threatening. sometimes we need to step back away from ourselves and realize the way we are percived is the way we are treated... if you did not come off sounding so deranged, you might find more willing to hear what you have to say.... but your approach is what is questionable... i agree the business could be safer than it is now, i agree with your core message... just your technique needs help.
