Yes, this position has been reposted. As for the money, that was never mentioned so not sure where you got your information.

davecummings · 08-23-2005, 06:28 PM

I imagine this is for their cable-version acquisitons (of hardcore shoots that also film a "soft"/Cable version), probably heavy on the "features" like Vivid/Wicked/Metro/VCA/etc have become known for?

I'll be performing, probably in a cable-version mode (unfortunately for me), with a young yet-to-be-determined porn actress this coming Friday night for Playboy's "Night Calls" show. A couple of rehearsals and then a live broadcast---no room for mistakes!

I've got a shot of me in uniform, but can't figure out how to get it posted to the thread you posted. It's hell to be old and almost totally computer-illiterate; The photo is in the Guest's section, at the bottom of the first page in the link titled "Dave Around Town"--it was taken at a benefit we did to raise money for victims of 9-11. The Bronze Star is real, it's from the Tet Offensive in Vietnam when I was a Unit Cdr with the 4th Infantry Divison.
