The Movers Are Gone!
The Movers have cum and gone - Pito and I are sitting in an empty house. We kept an old Queen size bed for us to sleep on, I have my PC and Pito has a Brand New Lap Top that he is playing with at this very moment. We have an old TV that's picture is so dark and green its really hard to see, a small space heater and of course the cat and dog are all camped out in one little room in the house. We have 2 more days here in Indy before we are heading to the Orlando area - and not a moment too soon, we had our first snow fall today ( I was really happy to see it snow before we left, I think it's pretty and gonna miss it).
At any rate we are finally on our way to Florida and closer to making this all happen. Things are Getting Better and on that note I wanna show luv to C'Man for his contribution to the It Get Better Compaign. As you know Pito and I are big fans of C'Man's work and hope you check out his blog for some Hot Drawings!

I just have to share this, so many people caught up with race issues...
Not Black Enough !? SERIOUSLY !!??!!
.by Calvin Washington on Saturday, October 16, 2010 at 1:01am.
Wasn't sure about posting this, but WTF !! If one more person...No, make that one more BLACK person whom I DON'T EVEN KNOW walks up to me & tells me I don't "...act black enough !" , I'm gonna possibly commit my first Homicide !! My Skin Tone & Facial features are Race Specific enough that, despite the diversity of my lineage, I can legitimately be called African-American, although, since I didn't immigrate , but was BORN HERE, I consider myself An AMERICAN ! But, back to the Point ! The way I Talk, Act, Think, Dress, Live, whatever IS the Way a Black Man Acts ! It is the Way THIS Particular Black Man, Mr. Calvin 'CMan' Washington, Acts !! And I am NOT on this planet to fit ANYBODY'S pre-determined definition regarding how to be Black, be Gay or anything else ! So, to those reading this, you need to Define me, Fine ! But if You don't like the Definition of ME ,then Hit the DELETE button, cause ya better know that I WILL and so Hard & Fast that you'll have the letter "D" permanently imprinted on your forehead !
( And I'd like to add that I'm not unaware of how this rant feeds into that Angry Black Man stereotype ! ;-)

Keeping It Real
A little over a year ago Pito and I were in front of the computer thinking What the Fuck, another picture rejected by a Website. (I wont mention the sites name because that is not why we are here, but they run their site with predigious.) We have a pretty decent eye for pics and I'm not bad with photoshop, so we would often post composits and such. Some of them pretty damn hot, but they would be taken down by this site or that one because of some gradeschool rule or fucked up power trip they happen to be on. So we decided to put up our own shit, where the only rules we have are by the Feds (which are more than enough).
We took a year or so and did a ton research and as most of you know We have Our Name, Our Own Web Host, We Trademarked and Copyrited Everything. We have our own ideas on how and what we want to show the public - and the shit is fresh, not the humb drumb cookie cutter crap that seems to be norm lately.
As a lot of you know we have had to reach out a couple times for help and advice on a few things. We were Naive to the various preditors in this business and got bit more than once. We had dudes try to jump on the band wagon talking about link this site to that one and bull shit of the same - still waiting on a couple of thoses links. We spoke with one who is well known in this business who talked about coming aboard as a consultant - we've been waiting on that call for months. We had someone else who picked at us for months talking this and that only to find out they decided to start their own company (that shit was so fresh it wouldn't even fucking Google!) - we could have been cool had they only been upfront. And finally we had the one who wanted nothing from us and then tried to publicly anoucne himself as a star. You can only imagine how quick I nailed that one in the ass! This is our Shit, We and Who We feel is Savage Talons Material are the "stars".
Another thing that is buring My Ass right now is something I let happen in Lauderdale. We have friends of all sorts, some more attractive than others and some more masculine than others - we don't give a fuck if your large or small, if we like ya we like ya, if we don't we don't. Under the advice of a good friend I let this nasty fucker rub all over me for what seem like the entire night.
Now I understand the need to be nice when trying to start your own business - no matter what the venture. But this fella was the kind of dude that just makes my skin crawl and in normal life I wouldn't have pissed on him if he'd been on fire.
I hate phony people and that night at the club I definitely put on Airs. Never Again, I ain't no Go Go Boy trying to make a quick buck!
One of the Things that sets us apart is that we are not someone who is trying to act like a certain "Porn Character", This is Us and We Keep it Real - We Are going to show the Real Us, the Everyday Us. Don't expect Us to always be funny or the class clowns all the time, if thats what you want - there are a lot of other companys and stars to search though.
One last thing, We do wanna Thank the Photographers we have worked with so far (Robert Miller Studios and Charles Bennett photography) you guys got us looked at. STM has also taken some bomb ass pics.
We give nothing but Luv to Our Graphics Designer - Duncan Baumbach who work is going to blow away anyting you've seen on any web site - Big or Small. He is the Master behind All the Art Work you will see - and the shit is off the chain. He will continue on with us to do Promo and DVD artwork. (and I can't tell ya how glad we've kept his work hidden from the spys and thieves).
Daddy Jim grabbed our hand and is doing a great job guiding us though a lot of this, many thanks to him. But we really have to thank SylvesterQ, Kevin H., C'Man, and Ty for keeping it Real with us. All these guys have been great to us as well as all our Facebook Friends, Followers, and subscribers.
Thanks For Your Support and For Keeping it Real Men!
Much Luv, Pito & Rick
