More snow, and I get namechecked on a REAL blog.

What the hell is up with the weather? I know it's still winter and all, but "flurries" has turned out to be over an inch. Come on Spring~!

So, I don't know if you've seen the story, but if you'll look to your left, you'll observe a link to Jim DeGregorio's blog. He's an adult filmmaker under a bit of fire in the industry for making a PSA for a Christian anti-porn group who wants parents to be more responsible for making sure their kids aren't accidentally exposed to porn(i.e. their own squirreled away stashes.) I sent him an e-mail today just to say I supported what he's doing, bang, it's on his blog.

If you don't want to click, this is what he said:

More porners' thoughts on the XXX Church's PSA. (Maybe I’m not so shunned after all.)

Jon M., a guy who refers to himself as “Another video store clerk who supports you...” in the subject line of his email writes: “I just wanted to drop you a line and let you know that I think what you've done for XXXChurch is awesome. I am an assistant manager at an independent, non-adult video store which has an adult room (in Connecticut), and I have had occasion to kick underage kids out of my adult room more then once. Someone besides me should be telling them that they need to wait until they're old enough, and a man who makes kick-ass porn should be that person. The people who are giving you crap should realize that you're trying to keep the anti-porn crusaders who don't care about anything except putting you out of business at bay. Keep up the good work~! - Jon Muggleton, Lord and Master of the Tommy K's Video Porn Room, North Haven, CT.”


Apparently he's the first pornographer ever to appear on the 700 Club, as they did a story on the PSA and the controversy.

Before I go, I just want to give a shoutout to Gary, AKA Topps, my ITVR metalhead buddy who is in the hospital in Ohio recovering from reconstructive surgery on his throat for a major sleep disorder. Get well soon, Topps.
