The first of the great porn stars....before John Holms of course....is now 58 years old, a real estate broker, and a Methodist. (Also monogamous, and unusual for a Methodist, a small "L" liberal. )

Now he has a message. His DVD just came out, and he explains how awful the life was, how he almost died/went broke/drunk. Get this...it took Hugh Hefner (That Emissary of Satan!...that evvviiiilll man!) to get him into a 12 step program and turn his life around.
So, what's his message? Well censorship is still wrong, beware of people who think they know what is right from wrong, and to quote him "The only story I wanted to tell was the story of redemption. And, indeed, the two filmmakers of this documentary saw the same story and we have the same fix, so I agreed to co-operate in it. And now, quite frankly, I'm being paid quite well to promote the film and to promote the DVD."
So, he is "test-a-fyin". And getting paid quite well do do so.
Gosh Rev-ed, you were agonizing about a glass of wine, and here is a fellow who virtually established the sexual revolution, saying quote..... "No, no, no! In fact, if I were asked if I would do it all over again and I knew I was going to be the person I am today, I'd do it in a heartbeat. There was a lot of pain and angst and suffering, especially right after the trial (he was singled out and prosecuted for his role in Deep Throat before being freed from the ordeal by the Jimmy Carter administration) and until I got sober in 1989, but I'd do it all over again." Yeah, I bet you would Harry! Those memories will never die! And what happens to the girls....oh, I guess that doesn't matter, its all about you!
I don't know whether to envy him or despise him. Either way, ya gotta admire somebody who took the lemons life handed him and made lemonade! Looks like you have turned your life around, so it is unfair to chastise you for your earlier life, but darn it...I'm a gonna tease you unmercifully!

LOL. Tease away at him. Good post...you keep me informed.
I say, when life hands you lemons, grab a tequilla to go with it. But don't tell Rev Ed.
Hey, go to my FAIRIES blog, you've been tagged!
Oh, that is so funny about your tag! You must post it you know and tag five people with it!
If life gives you lemons make lemonade.
If life gives you enormous genitals, make Deep Throat.
There's a lesson there somewhere...
I don't know whether to laugh at it or just frown at it. :-P At least one has to give credit to him for he is changing his life..yeah...right......... (lol)
Thanks for the comment on my blog!
I heard there was tequila and porn here? :D
It's amazing to think that 50 years ago you could be arrested for making a movie naked!
Thank God for Hugh Hefner and Larry Flynt!
