Me Love You Long Time...

Alrighty folks, come with me to the mysterious Far East and settle into your movie seat. We travel to the Orient to examine the throbbing, exploding trend of Japanese elder porn. A Time Magazine article today probes the story of Shigeo Tokuda, a 74 year old Japanese man who has thrust himself into Japan's porn spotlight. His full body of work shows a rising performer, inserting himself into 350 movies over the past 14 years. According to the article, some of Tokuda's more arousing films are Maniac Training of Lolitas and Forbidden Elderly Care.

Banging away at traditional porn, the production company Glory Quest claims the only way for them to surge past their competition is to forcefully enter the elderly crack in the market. Sagging and limp sales have led Japanese porn retail giants Tsutaya and DMM to pump up to between 20% and 30% of their releases as "mature men or women" films. Ruby, Inc. director Ryuichi Kadowaki offered his rigid position on the genre's success by stating his feelings that sales for traditional younger porn come in short spurts while elderly porn has slow, steady and building followings.

Sleep easy America, Kobe Tai won't have to retire anytime soon. Taking a big load of talent with her, she can easily work another 40 years in the industry. About that time good ole Shigeo Tokuda will be about 114 years old and might be ready to finish shooting his film career with a spry, young 70-something Kobe Tai.

That's it folks... your news break for the day. Check your Netflix and Blockbuster accounts for up and coming releases from the Orient.

I am very impressed with your appropriate word choice. I'd use your this as an example of using language for a purpose in my class next year except I don't want to get fired.

Oh well . . .

I've heard that the Japanese have a great respect for their elderly.
And I have tremendous respect for anybody who can keep it going at that age.

Hi Bob!

Too funny. Rob read it and was very impressed with your expert use of double entendre. We laughed ourselve silly. He also said to tell you "Congrats on the Cs crushing victory over the Lakers!"

Yup, he actually exists honey. I would never have thought to frame a sentence that way! God, I can hardly wait for Cece to read this post. You know something goods gonna happen!!! ;) Wonderful, funny and beautifully executed. Has Leah or Kylie dropped by your blog? They must. They love words and this will kill um'! I'm going to go round them up.

Hope you're having a great day. We'll chat soon. Terrific post!

XO Blottie (that still makes me laugh)

That was supposed to be "ourselves." My pinky finger wasn't working.

Goodness. The pressure to perform has been places upon me, and I am hoping that I don't have a disappointing climax to this wonderfully and well written article. Thanks Suzanne. You know men only read Playboy for the articles and the jokes. Yeah, I liked this post. The words were great and I got both meanings. You see I've always said that secretly every one likes a little porn. But MJ is your expert on elderly porn. Oh! I almost forgot.

Hi Bob...


Happy Early Birthday Suzanne.

I'd love to see that old guy in Anime porn! Actually, now that I think about it...I wouldn't like to see that. But, I'm drunk now so it doesn't really matter.
