In reply to rawalex. Mike you got into porn in 92 right when it starting getting great(those late 80's "concept" porn videos were god awful). It was a great run from around 92-06 then it crashed hard and long, pun intended. Porn overall had a long, successful run. I think sales went up by at least 10% every year from the mid 70s until 2005. Not a lot of businesses can claim that!

@MikeSouth1226 Hey Mike I worked for D&B SW. What product was that training video for? Nomad?

Mike I think that most men who ended up working in the porn industry would have similar (but perhaps not so wide in scope) stories. I don’t think many of us got up one day and said “I want to be in porn” and went from there. Rather, a series of interesting or weird things happened that allowed it to occur. In my case, long before porn, I had already worked as a strip club DJ, so perhaps I was pre-destined! Good story for sure, NASA’s loss is certainly our gain.

In reply to BT. Thanks BT I have actually heard that a lot..my whole idea was to present the girls as normal human beings doing something a little edgy. i wanted the audience to know a bit about them instead of them being faceless nameless people fornicating like animals...It worked I guess...maybe I should return to it.

PS – I remember going into my local video store, which also had an adult back room, and renting Southern Belle’s and thinking I’d never seen anything quite like it. It was great stuff.
