Larry Flynt's My Hero
Pictured here is my copy of "Sex, Lies, & Politics - The Naked Truth", written by Larry Flynt. I bought it directly from him and had him sign it, while he was here giving a speech about his book, new porn laws, and fielded numerous questions (he's a very smart, funny and clever guy, for those who've never heard him speak publicly).
I say he's my "hero" because of his long and painful battle in life and the courts to ensure that our Freedom of Speech was not taken away. If you're not familiar with his story, you absolutely must watch the DVD, "The People vs. Larry Flynt". If it wasn't for him, porn would not be accessible like it is today.
In addition to everything else, his website is a great read as well. LarryFlynt.com
When I approached him to sign the book, I felt very odd. I mean...here was this powerful person with an unprecedented history in the industry sitting within arm's reach, and all I could do was hand him my book to sign and then fumble out something stupid like "Thanks for everything, man." As the owner of an adult entertainment company, you'd think I'd be pretty numb to something that most would consider insipid (I certainly wouldn't be in awe of any porn star), but with some similarities between us it must have hit home a bit.
By similarities, I mean that we both grew up in the harshest of the white trash South, came from nothing, found our calling in porn, and became successful (me only a little compared to him, of course). Regardless...I shook his hand, thanked him, and moved out of the way for the long line of people behind me to swarm in on him. Regardless of my groupie-like behavior, I'm happy I did it and hope that one day I get a set of balls as big as his.

Eavesdropping Found Unconstitutional
A federal judge today ruled that the U.S. government's domestic eavesdropping program is unconstitutional and ordered it ended immediately.
Attorney General Alberto Gonzales said the Bush Administration disagrees with the ruling and has appealed.

Inside Deep Throat
I watched the documentary "Inside Deep Throat" last night and am recommending it to our readers. For those of you too young to remember this blockbuster, the film "Deep Throat" was about a woman named Linda LoveLace who had a dilemma to solve....her clitoris was in her throat.
"Inside Deep Throat" documents the emergence of porn into mainstream society. When the video, "Deep Throat", the first "big picture" porn video launched at a movie theatre open to the general public, it (and porn) became the primary focus of government and churche's crusade to shut it all down and arrest everyone. Porn was being grouped with communism in special reports, while celebrities like Jack Nicholson (and every big name in society) lined up for miles to see the film.
There are amazing similarities of the government and religious right's pursuit to shut down porn yesteryear and their continued attempts today. One FBI agent who was interviewed laughingly said, when asked about today's focus on pornography by the FBI, "I guess this means we won the war on terror".
I watched the NC17-rated video on DVD, so I don't know how it compares to the R-rated version. My version had tons of special features that were definitely worth the watch (and were sometimes better than what they chose to include in the actual film).

Your Own Free Sex Blog
Just an FYI for those who might care or be interested: I am working on a blog hosting script that will allow anyone to create their own sex blog. We'll be offering this basic service for free (with our ads on the blog, limited storage, and absolutely no tech support, but it's very user-friendly so that shouldn't be a problem considering this is free :) We'll probably offer a paid upgrade for those who want more...but the free package should suffice for most everyone.
You'll be able to sign up and start posting your own blog entries within a minute or so and everything is very "step-by-step" so even a newbie can figure it out :) We will also ask the AMVC.com producers to start their own sex blog to keep their porn fans updated on their videos, insider secrets, new releases, etc.
I'm about half done. When it's ready, I'll start having friends test it out to help us find any bugs I may have missed. When those are squashed, then we'll announce here and on all of AMVC.com's websites...so bookmark us and check back often!
