I'll admit I peruse Flashman's bullet-style, porn-gossip, entries. I don't have time to go dig this drudge up for myself. So I look at what the porn-gossip sites are publishing, and then if the spirit moves me, maybe I do a little take on it for my site. But lately, this Flashman is getting quite full of himself.

Here's an example--Flashman writes: "I am the number one publicist. There's nobody who can get more publicity for any porn star than me. Now I want to become the number one gossip man in the community. I realize that John Bowen, Gene Ross, Luke Ford are good. People tell me that I am already among the top twenty best known people in the business."

Earth to Flashman--You're "...among the top twenty best known people in the business?" What business are we talking about? Certainly not the XXX business. Dude, I'll admit that since you've been contributing to setgo.com there's suddenly some people who now know who you are besides a few pornstars looking to moonlight if ya get what I'm saying. But let's not get carried away with this shit.

And what's with putting John Bowen on your list of great porn gossip writers? Did I fall asleep and not wake up until after John Bowen retired from the porn-gossip business? I don't remember Bowen, aka John T. Bone, ever being a gossip columnist. He was an AVNinsider contributor for about three-minutes and what he wrote there certainly wasn't gossip.

Flash--here's a dose of reality: You're not the number one publicist in the biz. I spoke with uber-publicist Harry 'Moses' Weiss and Moses assures me that he (Moses) is in the top three, and that Flashman isn't even in the top twenty, and Harry can only name a total of about six publicists.

You're not the number one gossip columnist. Carly Ford is.

You're not among the top twenty recognizable people in the jizz bizz--maybe the top one-hundred and twenty, but only on a day the Gods are smiling on you.

You are exactly what you are: a peripheral-to-the-business name-dropper who stumbled onto Liberace's and Elton John's yard sales and suddenly found your place in the universe.

By the way, you also bear a striking resemblance to Kid Vegas, in an older sort of way, which unfortunately drops you even lower on the 'recognizable' list.
