is she still claiming she was a victim of the porn industry?

^ She is dead, so I don't think she can claim anything now. Towards the end she even felt used by the feminists who used her as a poster girl. Joe Bob Briggs wrote a great obit for her in The National Review.

Linda Lovelace was everything Desi aspired to be, but failed at. Her detractors, like Goat and MPZ, have tried (see Weiner, Anthony) but they just can't seem to milk the national attention like Deep Throat did.

loved him hosting monster vision when i was in middle school.

I remember his "Late Night Drive-In Theater" fondly from my college days. Very sharp critic & writer - I've read a couple of his books as well.

Houston the now unretired pw put out book earlier this year in paperback and for the Kindle. Check it out, I think the paperback is very reasonably priced.

Didn't Houston trim her labia after her huge gangbang and sell the trimmings on ebay?

seems like it might be a good read.but why the fuck is it 39 dollars?

I like books with high body counts. I'm currently reading a series about a giant shark that keeps eating people. It's shallow, and not very well written, but suspenseful enough for me to enjoy.

Cormac McCarthy's Blood Meridian has to have the highest body count of any book I've ever read.

How Starbucks Saved My Life (Michael Gates Gill).

if his parents gave him the start up money hes still just another rich kid.

Barrel Fever (David Sedaris)

Listening to audiobook . Not Taco Bell Material by Adam Carolla.

Thanks Claude. Noted. Is that the dude that wrote No Country For Old Men?

Yep, that's the guy, he also wrote The Road and Child of God. Pete Dexter is another worthwhile writer who deals with a lot of darker, violent stories.

I know I've recommended him before, but Lansdale is another for good old fashioned Texas violence. He puts more of a blak comedy spin on it, but check out The Complete Drive-In. It's the most twisted, fucked-up, funny, yet gory and extremely violent book I've ever read. How the guy comes up with the shit he does is beyond me.

Yeah, I've read some of Lansdale's short stories but not his novels. His short stories and horror novels seem hard to come by. I see The Complete Drive-in has been reissued and is on Amazon. Click.

marvel zombies destroy.read this last night and its pretty good even though its kind of short.this is a marvel zombies prequel that explains how the whole marvel zombies zombie outbreak happened.the zomnibus comes out next month i believe.


the xfiles:book of the unexplained.gonna start this soon.its a long big book at 650 pages.this explains some of the paranormal stuff that inspired x files episodes and even has pictures of some of the stuff and stuff from the show.seems like its gonna be a great read.

great book. I used to use the first line (it started as a mistake..) when teaching kids how to develop intro hooks.

recently finished girlvert. loved it..



now reading dawn schiller's memoir, just at the point where john is creeping on her and she's getting all gooey pantsed.

I am currently reading an oddly-shaped, green plastic object that says, "FRONT TOWARD ENEMY."

Point it toward yourself and click the controller 3 times. You'll be pleasantly surprised.

I am my own worst enemy.

Three Weeks With My Brother by Nicholas Sparks and Micah Sparks. Memoir/Travelogue of an around-the-world trip.

"The Tender Bar" by JR Moeringer.

Memoir of the author whose father runs out at an early age.
Over his youth he encounters various father figures at the local watering hole in Manhasset, NY, where his uncle tended bar. Good read.

My Horizontal LIfe: A Collection of One-Night Stands (Chelsea Handler)

This book is stupid. I read it halfway through and returned it back to the library, because the more I read it the dumber I felt.

I love reading stories written by horndog women.

how does it read?ive kind of lost interest in reading it since her show fell off.

Read this too, pretty well written actually, very little about porn, he kept her from that, I guess he didn't want to 'spoil' the 14 year old he was molesting. He's clearly a POS of course, even more so than the movie Wonderland let on.

She's rude and crude, Frankie. Just like her show.

Anger: Wisdom for Cooling the Flames (Thich Nhat Hanh)

I received a Neil Gaiman book for christmas. Is Gaiman any good?
Claude, I'm looking at you, here.

Depends on the book, I was never able to get into Sandman despite all the hype about it but I really dug his Mr. Punch book, or anything he does with Dave McKean for that matter.

I've only read his comics, not really into reading the 'books' of comic guys usually, for the same reason I usually steer clear of rockers writing novels too. Exceptions made for autobiography of course, at least when it's Dylan and Keith, or Grant Morrison's book about comics which is pretty damn good.

Right now I'm reading The System of Dante's Hell by Leroi Jones (aka. Amiri Baraka). It's like a black power W.S. Burroughs.

New Tom Clancy. Jack Ryan, Jr is the most one dimensional character since Corky on Life Goes On.

Thanks for the imput, claudio.

It's a book called American Gods. Imma' read it, because when people gift me books that aren't The Holy Bible, I read them. I'll be back with a report five years from now. It took home a Hugo, a Nebula, and a Locus, so it can't be too terrible.

Currently I'm slogging through Andrew Vachhs' Burke Series. It's kind of like Dexter, but replace the serial killers with child rapists/abusers.

He's a ped that kills peds?

or hes a ped/rapist that rapes peds and rapists.but im sure common sense would dictate hes a serial killer that only murders chomos and rapeos.

I have one book by Andrew Vachhs I haven't got around to reading yet, seems like he's obsessed with kiddie diddlers.

So you two have a lot in common. He's very pro-defending kids, which is a good thing.

Drop Dead Healthy: One Man's Humble Quest for Bodily Perfection (A.J. Jacobs)

No, Vachss is a lawyer who specialized in cases of child abuse/molestation. He also ran a prison/boot camp for troubled youths. Pretty right on dude that's dedicated his life to helping out youth.

The Burke series is about a private investigator who only takes cases that involve children. Pretty well-written, hard boiled shit. Burke exacts vigilante justice and takes the hurt to the pedos/rapists. I don't watch Dexter, kind of forgot he's a serial killer himself.

The Buddha Walks Into a Bar (Lodro Rinzler)

Joey is such a fucking lefty asshole. I am a chapter and a half in and he's bitched about the cops, talked about how great unions are, how bad John Wayne is, etc. The whole reason i got sick of punk...

http://www.amazon.com/I-Shithead-Life-Joey-Keithley/dp/1551521482

Cool. Thanks.

It's Punk. Leftyism is the coin of the realm.

FWIW Frank Miller expressed admiration for his work about the same time that Inari Vachs adopted his last name as her porn aka.

I dug the Meatmen and Flag and Husker Du and even Minor Threat. There were lotsa bands that didn't buy this shit.

Someone forgot to tell Johnny Ramone.

He was pretty rabid, too. I'm sure that a lot of successful ones are pretty conservative when it comes to their cash.
