THE PIPELINE: APRIL 2003

As most of you read this, spring is in full bloom. My April column is usually the time when I save up all of my really good pretend news for a good April Fools joke. Given the current state of world affairs, this probably isn’t the time for quips about flowers and bikini season and it’s certainly not the time for fake stories. I’m sure you will all forgive me if I keep things a little more serious as I bring you the news and notes from the world of X. Times like these should make us all realize that there are things even more important than gaping assholes, bukkake and which directors are paying off sales reps to inflate the numbers on their new releases. Don’t worry; there will still be plenty of time for fun and a lot of talk of baseball. In fact, I am writing this month’s column while sitting with Mrs. Rog in our seats at Edison Field for opening day. I’ll bring you some updates as we go.

When he was making movies for Extreme, Thomas Zupko was always doing something newsworthy. Back from a three month hiatus and shooting Elegant Angel, Zupko is right back in the middle of things. The controversial and critically acclaimed director of such classics as “The Abyss”, “In The Days of Whore” and “Ass Clowns” recently completed filming of his latest effort “Flesh Circus.” It’s the touching story of an innocent young girl’s odyssey through some of the most unusual sexual antics ever seen. Zupko inked busty Scotti Andrews for the lead and was able to convince Veronica Caine to come back for a guest appearance as well. “Flesh Circus” should be on the shelves by the end of the month and opens the door for future Zupko projects at Elegant Angel.

The opening ceremonies for tonight’s game were quite good. After a celebration of last season’s World Series victory that included the unfurling of the championship flag, we were treated to fly over by F-18 fighters, the teams took the field for the opening game of the 2003 season.

Also back on the set for the first time in a while is Serenity. The former Wicked Girl has spent the past year traveling the world as a feature dancer and working with her toy company, Las Vegas Novelties. Early this month, she will shoot her first movie in nearly two years. Further details will follow next month.

Bottom 1st- The home team fell behind 1-0 in the top of the first when Juan Gonzalez scored Alex Rodriguez with a broken bat single. The Angels tied the game in the bottom half of the inning on a two out single by DH Brad Fullmer to score Darren Erstad.

Seymore Butts fans were thrilled to see him put his legal woes behind him and get back to making movies. There has been even more of Seymore to enjoy of late. He has a weekly reality TV show on Showtime called “Family Business.” The half hour program gives viewers unprecedented access to Seymore’s business and personal life. Early shows have focused on Seymore’s internet dating adventures, his relationship with his son and the unusual working situation he has sharing an office with his mother. “Family Business” airs Sunday nights on Showtime.

Bottom 3rd- The world champions take their first lead of the season on an RBI single from Garrett Anderson. The base hit to right field scored David Eckstein to put the Angels up 2-1.

One of the feature players on “Family Business” is Seymore’s beautiful assistant Mirna. Many of you may recognize this sexy young babe from the photos and toy reviews she did on my site last year. After three years of working for Seymore, Mirna is now performing in movies under the name Mari Possa. Along with Avy Scott, Mari is one of two new Tushy Girls features in new Seymore flicks. The non-exclusive deal has Mari making her debut in “Seymore Butts- Strictly Busin-Ass.” Her first scene is a solo with later movies starring Mari in a three-way with Flower and Nacho, then Seymore himself taking Mari’s on-screen anal cherry.

Top 4th- With the Angels leading 2-1, the sun has set completely and the smell of garlic fries is thick in the air. The sell out crowd is quieted considerably by back-to-back singles from Ruben Sierra and Hank Blaylock and a three run home run by Mike Young to give Texas a 4-2 lead.

Now that OGV appears to be a thing of the past. Rodney Moore has found a new home. The quirky director who treads into areas few in porn dare (or want) to venture will now have his movies distributed by Exquisite Images. These are the same people who distribute Max Hardcore’s movies. Since Max got me banned form the screener list at Exquisite, I guess I won’t be seeing much from the “King of Cream” any time soon.

Bottom 4th- A lead single by Troy Glaus gets the crowd back on its feet. However, a double play ball off the bat of Bengie Molina kills the rally to hold the score at 4-2.

In just a few days, the XRCO Awards will be announced at a ceremony in downtown Los Angeles. The critics’ organization is expected to follow AVN’s lead in heaping tons of hardware on John Stagliano’s ground breaking feature “The Fashionistas.” Aurora Snow, Jewel De’Nyle, Lexington Steele and Jules Jordan are also favorites to pick up awards. The XRCO also presents special awards to often overlooked performers in categories like “Unsung Siren”, “Orgasmic Oralist” & “Cream Dream.” A full list of the XRCO nominations can be found at www. And winners will be announced in next month’s column.

Top 5th- The Rangers start quietly in the 5th inning as Angel starter John Lackey retires Carl Everett. Texas shortstop Alex Rodriquez then wowed the capacity crowd with a mammoth home run to boost the Ranger lead to 5-2.

Master of self promotion Skeeter Kerkove has been quite vocal in praising his first gang bang movie “Clusterfuck.” Released by Sin City on Kerkove’s Mayhem label, the movie features Bridgette Kerkove and Ashley Blue being banged by eight guys at a time. The male talent enjoys each other often during long double stuffing sessions. In spite some glaring problems with the movie, like massive “looping” of footage and an inexplicable scene where Kerkove inserts himself into the action, the movie has risen to the top five on some DVD sales charts. Best known for PR pimping his wife throughout her career, Skeeter is now using his finely-honed shilling skills to make everyone agree with him when he says that “Clusterfuck” is a great gang bang movie. At least no one can accuse him of not trying.

Bottom 5th- Angel fans picked up the noise levels as a lead off double by playoff hero Adam Kennedy let to a run on a Darren Erstad ground out. Though the rally was thwarted, the Angels have pulled to within two runs at 5-3.

After the biggest exodus in porn since 1998, rumors of the demise of Anabolic/Diabolic have been rampant. Not since Rob Black, Tom Byron, Tiffany Mynx and Van Damage left Elegant Angel to form Extreme Associates has a company lost so much talent in such a short period of time. With Lexington Steele, Erik Everhard, Mike John and Jon Dough all departing, Anabolic/Diabolic have been left for dead by many porn pundits. I had the chance to visit the new A/D facilities and found them very much alive. The new facilities are huge and contain office space, editing bays, duplication center and the biggest warehouse I’ve seen in the adult business. Anabolic owner Chris Alexander talked with me for a while, passing on his best wishes to the departed directors and assuring me that things are going just fine. In addition to in-house director John Strong, Anabolic is taking a look at a host of other shooters. The pile of audition tapes in the corner of Alexander’s office was an interesting mix of industry veterans, up & coming stars and a few guys who would probably be better off busing tables. How quickly and completely Anabolic/Diabolic are able to fill its roster may still be at issue, but it is clear that the rumors of their demise are even more exaggerated than the sales numbers for an un-named gang bang movie.

Bottom 7th- After a stirring seventh inning stretch that included the introduction of the F-18 pilots and the singing of both “God Bless America” & “Take Me Out to the Ball Game” the Angels go quietly. If we were in Dodger Stadium it would be time to go home.

It has been rumored for more than a month that former Anabolic/Diabolic directors Erik Everhard and Mike John were on their way to Red Light District. That announcement was finally made officially this week. Joining the duo is Toni Ribas who had been making movies for Sineplex. The move re-united Erik and Mike with former roster-mate Lexington Steele. It gives RLD full control over the top two male performers not named Rocco. It also gives them one of the top shooters in John. According to the announcement, Ribas, Lex and Everhard will only be performing in their own movies. My sources indicate that we will see some sort of deal that will put Lex and Erik in front of the camera in John’s movies in exchange for his camera work on theirs. The ever expanding RLD roster makes them one of the most formidable companies in all of porn, but one has to wonder If these additions may squeeze out some of RLD’s existing directors.

Bottom 8th- The attendance is announced as 43,525 a sell out and the largest opening day crowd in Edison Field history. Texas reliever Francisco Cordero comes in with his 96 mph fastball and breezed through the first two Angel hitters. DH Fullmer nursed a walk to give Angel slugger Troy Glaus a shot at some two out heroics. Cordero blew down Glaus to end the threat and send some Angel fans to the gates early.

Xcitement Magazine celebrated ten years in the business last month. The 120th issue of the south Florida based magazine featured a photo shoot and in depth interview with XXX superstar Jenna Jameson. With Jenna’s mainstream popularity riding unprecedented highs, her inclusion shows just how far Xcitement has come. Though still geared toward local interests and focused on the Florida strip and swing scenes, Xcitement has made inroads into vids and provides a fan-friendly perspective that is quite fresh.

Top 9th- After a lead off double by Juan Gonzalez, Angel shortstop David Eckstein brought the crowd to its feet with a diving catch of a shallow fly ball off the bat of Raphael Palmerio. The great play helped Angel reliever Brendan Donnelly settle down and kept the Angels within three runs.

One of the more disturbing stories of late involves a scene allegedly shot for the web called Bumfucks. Patterning itself after the ‘mainstream’ (and I use that term loosely) site and video that features homeless men paid to duke it out for the amusement of the juvenile hosts, the porn version is equally appalling. It was reported that a female performer was hired to ride in a van until a suitable homeless man was found. When was secured, he was enticed into the fan for a scene with the girl. According to her story, the female performer was asked to do a scene with the unwashed and untested man and was “pressured” into acts including a rimjob on his filthy anus. Though details remain sketchy and the names have yet to be confirmed, reaction to the story was swift and nearly unanimous. Industry insiders and most fans reacted in horror. This may be one of the most disturbing scenes ever shot or it may be nothing more than a well placed piece of PR that will become part of porn mythology. Either way, there are going to be some fans ready and willing to plunk down $19.95 just to see what the fuss is all about.

Bottom 9th- With the Rally Monkey making his first appearance of the season, the Angel faithful have hope. Ranger closer Ugeth Urbina comes in to squash their chances of repeating the late inning magic that led them to a title in 2002. Tonight there is no rally as Urbina puts the Angels down 1-2-3 to preserve the victory. One game down, 161 to go.

That’s all the news for now my friends. I usually try and leave you with some witty parting words, but I would like to take this moment to be a little bit serious. With American and Britain at war, I had something I wanted to say.

This is no time for politics, no time for second guessing, or any of the crap. Just time for prayer. For the troops, for the innocent, for wisdom, for guidance, for something swift, for something meaningful and for peace. God speed and God Bless
