I have to say this was one of the most hectic travels ever, there where so many problems, worries and strange things that happened to me on the way to my native tribe. It all started out fine, until I reached London’s Heathrow airport, one of the most busy in the world, and most certainly the most crooked in the way of navigation :)
I went to the hectic security lines, queued for hours, just to find out that I had to return to Terminal 3 (I had then made my way to Terminal 1) and was told my bags had not been checked all the way to my final destinations so I’d need to pick them up MYSELF and drag them over to Terminal 1 BY MYSELF and re-check them in. I was not going to do that, I refused and so I went on a venture to find my dogs instead, and found them I did in the wonderful facility by to Corporation of London Animal Quarantine Centre. It took some time to get there, I had to take a train from Terminal 1 to Terminal 4 and then take a bus number 555 to the center. It took time and some innovative thinking but I made it to see my dogs happy and healthy. At least by then I had one worry of my back and could start to think what to do regarding my bags that where on a baggage belt somewhere in Terminal 3, waiting to be pick-pocketed! :(
To make a long story short, it involved a taxi, a few walks between terminals and yelling at airline staff to get them to re-tag my bags for my final destination. I am good at yelling, and it comes especially handy when you arrived on First class the airline staff are ready to do almost anything for you. Poor economy travelers :)
Well thats it for now, I’m safe and sound, working my ass off and we just opened the new version of our review site Cockanova.com and we are very happy with the results. Some tweaks to be performed on Monday when the programmers come back to work! Happy Loy Kratong!

Shooting gay porn is the most fun aspect of my job. I get to see all these cute guys, casting them in my ultimate fantasy and get to decide what their role will be in my films.
Before I start a project, I always have a script in mind and a basic timeline of events to make the movie more interesting. Some directors forget all about this and only focus on the sex but my personal opinion is that the story line does matter, after all if someone watches the whole feature they’re going to be clueless afterwards and sit up only with a few tissues of wet cum in their hands.
I’ve often been criticized for the ‘quality’ of my porn, some critics say its bad, while others praise it as first class. The real issue is that we all are different and like different things. Reverent Mercury might want the camera to stay still focusing only on the close ups while Prime Minister Blair might like to see more of the action going on all around him.
You can quickly see after you buy the first film from a certain director or a studio what kind of flavor they offer, and if you like it, buy more.
That was my input on Quality… more to cum on my blog soon!

This could as well be the first chapter in my self biography as there is allot for me to tell about, about my background, my life, growing up and winding up in this wonderful industry we have all come to love.
I was born in the great year of the Snake in 1976, at the edge of the hippies and the beginning of the mass media and computer age. It was a wonderful time to grow up as a kid during this time, there was (yet) not too much TV and no gaming consoles, and we as kids still plaid outside from time to time. There was of course the momentary insanity from now and then when a new toy hit the market not unlike today when a new computer game hits the stores shelves.
I was in a hurry to grow up, so much that at the age of 18 I started my first porn “empire”, a text based adult website that really made a big impact. Later on, the market evolved and things started to get more serious and hardcore. On the way I partnered up with a genius and later my registered-partner Hauksson (we later got divorced but that’s OK, still best of friends and business partners). Together we founded KM Studios and have been very successful in getting our brand on the web and in the adult stores. We have very ambitious plans for the future and so far things have worked out just as planned.
I started making regular appearances in Prague, Czech republic in 2002 when I went to shoot my first film over there. It took us some time to find a partner to distribute our DVD line world wide but that happened and now we have regular distribution with 4-6 titles released every year. You can check out the studio website if you’re interesting to see what titles are out already and whats coming out soon.
For now I’ll leave this section of my blog and start writing the main posts. You can be sure that if I’m doing something nasty I’ll post about it here, plus back stage stories and stuff like that. Be welcome to bookmark this blog and return often to see the latest posts.
Yours truly,
