Sing, Muse, of your meteoric ascent from a seething pit of pure, all-American white trash.
Sing, also, of five-figure fees for one evening's striptease, and of six-figure film contracts for the company you built.
Sing of rape and addiction and suicide, of thieves and junkies and lies, of vodka, Vicodin, and crystal meth.
But most of all, sing of Sex.
The muse invoked here is, of course, porn goddess Jenna Jameson (formerly Massoli), the star of countless adult films, magazines, and strip clubs -- and CEO of ClubJenna Inc., her film production and online licensing company.
"How To Make Love Like A Porn Star" is her latest product, an autobiography in the form of a rant interspersed with detritus from her life's ricochets, including a sample adult film contract, entries from her diary, comics, and the sprawling transcript from a recent family reunion (which reads like a police blotter).
(snip)
Jameson now sits atop a multimedia company which sells hundreds of thousands of copies of films it produces and innumerable downloads of video clips. She manages over a dozen porn stars. Her club appearances earn her up to $25,000 per show.
And yes, she is married (to producer Jay Grdina) and looks forward to retirement and motherhood, now both comfortably within reach.
So sing, Muse, of a messed-up kid from a ditch on the wrong side of the tracks who climbed to the top of a $3 billion industry, using only the power of her ambition and body.
Sing, Muse, of the glory of America.

There's nothing wrong with porn, strippers, etc but there are a few things people should consider.
You shouldn't use it secretly from your spouse. If he/she isn't comfortable with it, you shouldn't use it.
Shouldn't leave it out where kids might see it.
It also shouldn't exploit those unwilling or incapable of giving consent.
And it shouldn't become an addiction, like anything else.
WKRP is definitely in the top 5 sitcoms of all time....or should be.
I'm not so sure about that. 95% of men couldn't handle a woman as overtly sexual as Jenna Jameson in real life - and they know it perfectly well. They might talk big, but if they ever met her in a bar they'd duck their heads, mumble something incoherent, and run away. Only men with an ego the size of Kobe Bryant's can deal with her.
And the kind of men who have the ego to handle the Jenna Jamesons of the world aren't the kind of men you would want to be in a relationship with, anyway. ;)
I don't think she should have children, because she can't be a good mother. That is my opinion of her. She probably doesn't care what I think.
I wouldn't impose my views on her by law.
That she gets to have children without consulting me makes this a great country.
I always rinse my strippers and put them away when I'm done.
My dream guy is someone who doesn't think 'foreplay' is latin for 'one minute'.
Your right
Not a trick question. My point is that "bad" activities, such as watching porn, drinking too much, gambling etc. can only effect kids if the kids are actually exposed to it. If mommy and daddy watch porn while the kids are asleep, occasionally get wasted at the country club and go to Vegas for gambling and lap dancing, they're not bad role models unless the kids know that they engage in these activities.
Can we factor in the dinner and drive over?
ROTFLMAO!
What an incredibly annoying writing style.
I guess you can live in a vacuum and be a parent.
I'd explain it to you, but it obviously would be a waste of both our time...
Hee hee. :^)
Have you tried ranting as a profession? I think you have the makings of a quality ranter.
Can you be certain that everyone your kids have been entrusted to throughout their lives has a squeaky-clean personal life?
