I was at The Red Rooster swingers club here in Vegas last weekend doing...er...research! And I'm standing at the bar drinking a beer and watching naked housewives packing the dance floor doing the "electric slide" heh-heh.
Anyway, I'm standing there and a guy walks up to me and tells me that he and his wife are big fans of Claudia-Marie (yes, she was naked on the dance floor too). Then he asks me what I do for a living! lol! I looked at him and said..."I'm in porn! You just told me you're a big fan of CM so you should know that"

He looked me straight in the eye and said:"Oh, I didn't know people still paid for porn. Didn't you know it's all free on the internet now?"

I just laughed and got myself a big shot of jaegermeister and another beer...
I hate to be "that guy", but I no longer care anymore when it comes to how I make money. When you have Playboy, Score Cash, and Fuck You Cash all taking that traffic, and never emailing back when inquiries were sent, then it just goes to show you that it truly is "every man for himself" now. If they don't care, then neither will I, and I will make money any way I see fit.

What's sad is the trickle down effect this is producing. I have an offer from The Lion's Den, a big Midwest chain of adult bookstores, to come in and run 4 of their stores to start, with another 4 coming in a few months. I wanted to take it seriously, but when they discussed money it just wasn't going to be possible. Because every DVD and magazine is available online they can't give either away, and their entire chain is in trouble. A business that was recession proof is now a burning turd that needs to be flushed...
