Maybe Vivid’s presence in that bone orchard was proof that when you die, that’s all there is.

“The recent proliferation of new porn awards is a sure sign the world economy is rebounding,” World Trade Organization Director-General Pascal Lamy did not say.

It’s Holy Week at Vivid, and Paul Thomas and Sasha Grey have at least 75 percent of the Gospels wrapped up.

Porn consumers are 78 percent more likely to watch a porn comedy a second time than any other kind of adult material, says the American Council of Instantly-Generated Statistics.

As the adult industry adapts to a changing economy it also continues to evolve. Nowhere was porn’s dedication to the new sexual aesthetic more apparent than at this weekend’s Erotica L.A., in which fans in and out of wheelchairs sampled the erotic future of 22″ rims, glass bongs, and scented candles. And, in a tribute [...]
