Porn is Gold

This week, intrepid reporter Tracy Moore took it upon herself to answer the age-old question How can I still afford to drink, smoke and screw to my heart's delight when I'm broke? What came of that query was Cheap Thrills: Your Recession-Friendly Guide to Vice in Nashville. In it you'll find a handy sinnin'-on-the-cheap how-to. You'll also find a perhaps unsurprising conclusion: even as paychecks suffer, the demand for vice does not.

Billed as "the world's first and only investment community designed specifically for the adult entertainment industry" (i.e. a porn hedge fund), AdultVest has pumped money into operations like iPorn, a start-up looking to, you guessed it, deliver porn directly to Apple's iPhone. As AdultVest CEO Francis Koenig put it to the Atlantic Monthly: "You've got six billion people on the planet and they're all horny."

Is Tom Cruise finished?

On the big Christmas Day box office day, Tom Cruise’s Valkyrie debuted at a disappointing number #4. This was already a movie that was re-scheduled to this big money making day due to fears about its performance. Valkryrie follows Cruise’s last flop, Lions for Lambs, which did not even break even at the box office and was one of the worst performing films of 2007. Was it Cruise’s brashness with NBC’s Matt Lauer interview or his jab at Brooke Shield’s pregnancy pills? Too political? Bad religion PR? He even recently apologized for Oprah’s couch jump.

This once was man that was making headlines for his marathon of $100 million gross movies. What happened?

iphone 3G is great for porn?

Oh girl, I’m so excited for iPhone 2.0. When the first iPhone came out, I considered duct taping my mac, iPod, camera and phone together so that I could have one too…alas, that did not work out. But now Apple is releasing 2.0 for only 200 bucks, and poor college students unemployed (well sort of) writers (read: bloggers) have a chance to look technologically fierce too! Think of all the amazing things I can do! Mapquest things, read about politics, donate online to charitable organizations–oh, and according to Time and most young males that think with the other brain, look at porn. It is, according to one source, “by far the porn-friendliest phone”. Oh hellllllllz yeah.

This is something I could not think of on my own. I needed Time.com to tell me. Apparently iPhone porn is up and coming. How do I feel about this? I’m not quite sure. But I know how some do. Here is the best quote from the article:

Blogger Jason Swifter has already imagined one such scenario. “I wish there was an application that allowed you to undress people by dragging your fingers across the screen and literally dragging it off,” he wrote on iPhonematters.com.

Jason, you sick, imaginative, creeper! Your mother must be so proud!

I wouldn’t use my iPhone for porn. Porn just isn’t my jam. James McAvoy is though–so I would stalk him as hardcore as a 13 year old stalks Zac Efron. Rawr! Alright, occasionally my friend and I have been known to stalk Zefron as well. But seriously, think of all the awkward situations that this new trend could bring. Would you risk it? I want answers.
