From Russia With Raspberries
Katya, the Russian-born blond beauty heads back to New Jersey September 1st, and fellow Russki Mila's asshole can breathe a welcome sigh of relief. In LA for a couple of weeks to get her porno indoctrination, Katya's first video comes out October 13. It's Queen of Nasty 2, from Dangerboy, where Katya teams up with Mila. It's safe to say, the world may never be the same, once this tag team got together. Mila, as you might expect, is Katya's idol.
Katya, too, of all things, is a pediatrician, educated at Moscow University. She came over to the United States but decided to put her medical career on hold. After seeing some U.S. porn vids with friends, Katya decided she wanted to exercisethe good 'ol American right to free-expression.
Katya notes that there's a huge sexual underground in Russia but the only porn she saw over there was European productions. "Here I've seen some American movies," she says in remarkably good English, all things considered. "But not all of them were good. That's how we started to discuss me coming into porn. I saw some videos with my friends. The girls were fat. It was fake. I could see them looking at the camera all the time. They didn't care who was fucking them. I can't imagine that. All my friends who were watching this said Katya, this sucks. They said why don't you try to be a porno star. You're so sexy. You're young, you're pretty. All your feelings are real."
Brad from Dangerboy said he bumped into Katya on the Internet where she was writing e-mails to people communicating her real feelings. "She said she was interested in doing some movies," Brad said. "We talked to her on the phone. We e-mailed back and forth a couple of months. Mila had to have her, so we brought her out." Brad recalls Katya writing to say that she was a "Russian princess".
"I told her we got the Russian queen out her already," Brad laughs. Katya said she'll continue to commute between LA and Princeton where she currently resides for the time being.
Mila was there to meet Katya at the LA airport when she arrived. "We started to shoot some absolutely crazy stuff there, "Katya notes.
"You know Mila, she encouraged her," Brad said. "Mila went on to the plane and got her."
"Mila and me were kissing and hugging each other," Katya says. "The airplane pilot thought that was so wonderful. He gave us a bottle of wine."
Brad: "We couldn't get on to the plane, but Mila said I don't care about the security guys, hold them to the side. She darted on to the plane, went in, got Katya, and started doing crazy shit on the plane, but nobody could shoot it."
The pilot, who also lives in New Jersey, gave Katya his phone number and told her to give him a call when she gets back. She said she will. Katya said, "There's a big contrast between LA and Princeton. LA's crazy, a city that never sleeps. Princeton is very quiet." Katya settled in Princeton because her parents moved there while she stayed in Russia to finish medical school.
"Unfortunately, the government here doesn't recognize the degree from Russia," notes Brad. "Maybe it's fortunate," Katya adds. "I can be a porno star instead. "Maybe I'll be a doctor when I'm a little bit older. I'll think about it. Right now I feel I want to, and can be a porno star."
Besides what she did with Mila, Katya also shot a Dave Cummings Sugar Daddy and got rave reviews from Cummings. "Then she shot three scenes for us," Brad adds. "Two are going to be in the next movie, and one we'll hang on to. We don't know what we're going to do with it, yet."
Katya, according to Brad, has signed an exclusive deal for Dangerboy. "But we're not greedy bastards," he lets everyone know. "Our release schedule is not enough to have a contract girl full time. We're definitely going to let her work for other people. We just want to have the exclusive right to refuse. I'm not going to have her work for people who are going to do $3500 budget gonzos with $15,000 worth of advertising and blow our movie off the map."
In between the sex scenes, Katya and Mila took a tour of the Sunset Strip and flashed anyone and anything that walked into the picture. Brad says he got enough footage out of that to assemble a 90-minute feature. "It'll be a non-sex movie with some hardcore content," he notes. In one instance, an LA fire department truck pulled up.
"The guys all piled out except one," Brad says.. "This guy did a four-finger insertion with Mila while holding her on his lap in the truck. He was in uniform. All his buddies got out of the truck and they covered their faces and their backs. Mila took his helmet with his number on it and put it on. He didn't care. He had a handful. She squirted all over his boots, the truck, the ground. There was a crowd of about 40 guys watching."
During another scene that didn't involve fire trucks, Katya observed how Mila made a fruit salad in her ass. "There were raspberries, bananas, other things," Katya said. "I couldn't see it, but I could feel it." Beats borscht, one might imagine.
Katya: "In Russia, there's no sex at all. In Russia for a long time you couldn't talk about sex. You couldn't pronounce the word out loud, to talk about it on TV or radio. It was a bad word. The government could put you in jail."
G. Ross: "How about the word, anal?"
Katya: "No! There was a famous phrase in Russia in translation means that we have no sex in Russia. It's not for a Communist country. It's not for us It's very bad."
G. Ross: "They sure built a pretty sizeable army for not having sex."
Katya: "Now everything's changed. Suddenly the old boundaries were lost. It's crazy. Anyway, it's still illegal to shoot sex or talk about it."
Brad says what's particularly beguiling about Katya is her ability to voice her opinion strongly. "She's like a man," he laughs. "She's like Mila. That's why we love her. She thinks the softie-stuff, no matter how good its quality, sucks to her. She wants to know what all the talking is about. She wants it wham-wham."
"Porno movies should be hard," says Katya who's intro into the business was a d.p. Other than that, she says she's done anal three times in her life - at 18, 20 and 23.
Katya: "Mila also put a drill inside my ass."
G. Ross: "I'm waiting for when you do the vodka bottle myself."
Katya: "It's all new for me and real crazy. On the second day of shooting it was my revenge. I did to her everything she did to me and more. I almost wrecked her ass."
Brad also described another scene where Dave Hardman and Earl Slate picked Mila up one-leg each, held her in the air with her ass facing the camera. Katya fucks Mila in the ass with a saw that has a dildo attachment.
Brad: "Mila's in love with her. Now we've got to come up with something new for Katya, a spinoff of the Queen of Nasty which we'll probably shoot in New York. It's the plan. Her [Katya's] husband did video and movie production in Russia. We're talking about getting him going with some James DiGiorgio lessons on how to shoot [sex]."
Radio Station in Dutch over Russian Incident
Katya and Mila continued their wild ways in Arizona this weekend as this email from Jimplasi will attest: "Saturday night was the scheduled Grand Opening of IMAGE, a new adult superstore, located in the college town of Flagstaff, Arizona. Mila and her new exclusive Katya were there signing autographs and promoting Queen of Nasty, her new line. The local alternative radio show, Rowdy & Sage on KZGL, were there doing a LIVE remote.The details are a bit foggy, but after speaking to Brandon from IMAGE and George from Dangerboy, it seems that Mila mentioned something about free blow jobs to everyone who comes in and soon there were several police and sherriff vehicles at IMAGE.
"Police will try to charge Mila with solicitation for the radio bit as well as for some polaroid photo of her grabbing at the crotch of a gentleman that paid $5.00 to the local Aids charity in Flagstaff.We're told that KZGL now has problems with the FCC. Katya, however, was not charged, although she was the instigator of the lotion squirting.
"Several police officers continued to roll through the parking lot at IMAGE to see what they had missed. Mila did her best to SMOOTH things out. After explaining her side of the story AND a brief demonstration of her showmanship, no charges were filed. That crazy bitch!"
Brad had this to add about the Flagstaff incident: "Major employees from Castle Boutique left the company to open up this new company called Image. Image is where we had Mila and Katya signing. They [Images] are having some zoning problems, and the neighbors aren't happy with them But they had the signing and a live radio broadcast Saturday night. Everything was fine for the first three hours, and then they let Mila go live on the air. These idiots at the radio station didn't know that you have to bleep things. They just let her go off. She's screaming about free blowjobs to the first 100 guys that show up. 'I'm having a gangbang, bring your cocks and your dicks down to Image for the big gangbang with Mila.'
"The radio guys didn't bleep it out. Two minutes later, every cop in Flagstaff showed up. The entire parking lot was all black & white. They kicked everybody out of the store and had the girls over to the side. They checked everybody's ID. The CFO of Images explained that all the money raised at this grand opening would be donated to this AIDS charity. The cops didn't cite anybody. They warned them and let them go. Mila got cushy-cushy with some of the sheriffs, but I guess the radio station got suspended. But they did very well and raised some money for charity."
Brad said they're having a fairwell party for Katya Tuesday night at the Rainbow. "Mila is like a bad influence on girls," said Brad. "She has no regard for anything that has to do with law, ethics or self-repsect."
XPW's Friday Night Show
Former pro wrestler Steve Neece writes: "I came, I saw, I was impressed! What impressed me? The enthusiasm of the wrestlers and the fans.The wrestlers were all up for their matches and when they were finished they watched the other matches on the monitor. You won't find that in larger more established organizations.The fans were up for blood from the beginning and all of the wrestlers worked on it. While some of them were pretty green I was impressed at trhe overall level of the working. He [Rob Black] has the talent for a solid nucleus of performers if he nurtures it properly. A few have the ability or looks to eventually graduate to the WWF or WCW.
"As near as I can tell only Big Dick Dudley and Damien Steele (the main event ) were brought in from the outside.They are over and they give the organization credibility. Likewise for Nicole Bass and Missy Hyatt, also flown in. With 24 workers plus Nicole & Missy, that comes to a hefty payroll. It is evident that Rob is serious and has some deep pockets. To get in the black he will have to go the video/tv route as his venues are to small at this point to make a profit. I will watch with interest.
"Observations: some green guys were doing maneuvers they weren't ready for and they could hurt themselves, others and XPW. Be careful. Have someone lay down the law to them and if they fuck up fine 'em or shitcan 'em. Workers (other than Dick & Damien) that most impressed me are Jimmy [the Homeless Guy], Jake Lawless, Cybil and Phenomenal Phil. West Side Ngz have a great gimmick and you should get a redneck biker team to go against them. The little guy is a gifted speiler. Nicole Bass is the most extreme woman they are likely to see and got more heat than the other women combined because they are threatened by her. Kristi Myst is a sweetie pie and she takes great bumps. Jasmin gave Kristi a stunner that would make Stone Cold smile. And both of them in heels!!Jasmin is a natural heel. How about interpromotional matches with Kristi & Jasmine going against teams from Vivid, VCA,Wicked etc. Bet Jenna would go for it.She and Nicole are great pals, and I have a feeling she's gutsier than most people think. How about Kristi and Jasmin vs. Jenna & Missy, Raylene & Janine or Dyanna Lauren,Vicca & Nikita or a team of Tushy Girls? Only problem is everybody would want to go over. Might end up in some wild shoots. Whaddaya think?"
Gspot writes: "Gene- I read something in that article about [dave] hardman having problems? or...was his head somewhere else??? Well...we can tell you that the hardmonster cranked out 3 scenes for us on sat, and 3 scenes on Sunday....plus, he fluffed 2 of our new girls while they were waiting for their scenes. The dude popped like 40 times in 48 hours....is that a man with a problem? My 3 wives all wish that I could crank out like hardman.
Lynne Loptatin writes: "Hi Gene: Thanks for balancing out the story with both sides. What a shocker.
Just for clarification, I was put on "Prozac," actually Effexor, the summer after my husband was diagnosed with inoperable terminal prostate cancer. Effexor is not a drug for "crazy" or "psychotic" people. It's an anti-depressant. Obviously, having your husband dying is depressing. The Effexor has been very helpful.
I came to David's door. I knocked on it. This is not crazy behavior -- it's what you do when you can't reach someone by telephone day after day. Obviously he was avoiding me, but feelings aside, it isn't very professional to avoid the producer of a movie project in which you're involved.
Hardman: "She came over to my house. She was knocking on my door and sitting outside shining a flashlight in the window. She wouldn't go away. (No one asked me to leave and I had nothing better to do than sit and read anyway, thinking eventually David would wake up or come home or whatever.) I called the cops just to tell her to leave. (Couldn't do it himself? What a wimp!) She wasn't stalking me. Maybe to the cops it looked like that. (Cops told me he said I was stalking him.) I was avoiding her. It took the cops about 40 minutes to get over here. She had a loaded gun in her backseat so they arrested her. It's not my problem. It's not my fault she had a loaded gun.
G. Ross: "You said she wasn't stalking you, yet her arrival at your house prompted you to do something."
Hardman: "The only reason I did that is because she wouldn't go away. We had a thing going where we were having sex. I'm a busy man in porno. Obviously it was no love affair. I had to cut it off because I had to stop having sex with her. She came over here like some girl would do for a guy who had just blown her off and wouldn't leave. (No one "blew me off." No one even said they disliked my company!) I figured if I went out there and said, 'Lynne, leave, she wouldn't get the message and probably keep bugging me. I figured if the cops come over and give her a roust she'd know I was serious. I don't appreciate people coming over to my house without calling. I'm weird that way. I like my privacy. (It's a junkie thing -- when you have drugs in the house, unannounced company can mean real trouble.)
I came over to his house like a producer who hadn't heard from talent and was getting worried about finishing a movie. If he had answered the door, said he'd worked all day and was tired, I would have asked him to confirm for the shoot date and then told him to go get some sleep and left. David never indicated to me in any way prior to this that he found me offensive, or that I was bugging him or anything else. In fact, having to have the LAPD "roust" me instead of coming to the door and speaking with me indicates to me that David has problems communicating.
Because he does scenes and is often burned out on having sex, I have never asked him for sex, because I respected him and his work. I thought that was an important part of the relationship and one of the things he valued about me -- that I didn't ask for sex. Whenever we had sex, he always initiated it. Porno conventions being what they are, sex never includes coming inside the girl -- you always have to pull out. David and I had personal sex, the way normal people do. I always enjoyed it and thought he did, too. He never said anything to indicate otherwise.
"I told the cops I don't want to press any charges. She's my friend. I told them I was in porno and that she was a director. But they had to arrest her. There was nothing I could do to talk them out of it. I want the story straight. There's a ton of shit I don't do that winds up on Luke Ford's site. I just deal with it.
"She's my friend." What? Is this how someone treats a friend? When your "friend" knocks on your door, you answer it.
"Ever since her husband died, she's been very horny. She's got this obsession that everybody wants to fuck her, her landlord wants to fuck her, the cable guy supposedly was stalking her; her gardener's been stalking her. She calls me five times a day telling me what guy wants to fuck her. She's running around her house with a gun. Then she shows up at my house. Keep that thing away from me. The way I look at it is, hey, everybody has to have that experience at least once in their life of getting the handcuffs on and getting thrown in the police car. I felt it was the right thing to do and I still do. I don't feel bad about it. Maybe there was a little paranoia going on in the back of my head. There's a lot of weird shit going on nowadays. I know she's on Prozac, and that scares me. It's Hollywood. It's the business.
I do not have an "obsession" that everybody wants to fuck me. I'm cute, newly single and live in a bad neighborhood. Most pretty girls get hit on a lot but, in the few weeks immediately after Bruce's death, I am anxious and really jumpy and very upset. My pet turtles were stolen by the gardeners and I had to threaten them with La Migra to get them back. The police had to be called about the cable guy, who stopped "hanging out" after the cops found his open truck parked in front of my house but no cable installation going on anywhere in the neighborhood.
I used to call David once a day, in the morning, to find out what his schedule was for the day, and he would say, "Page me later, and if I don't return it, keep paging." When Bruce was alive, Dave would come over and smoke a pipe with him. The day after Bruce passed away, David came over and spent the entire afternoon with me.
Personally, I disagree that everyone should be arrested just for the hell of it. It's like saying that everyone should be raped up the ass at knifepoint, just so they can have the experience.
A third party source, whom we shall call Agent Orange, fills in some more details.
Agent Orange: "Bruce wasn't having sex for the last couple of years of his life and didn't mind if Lynne got sex elsewhere, and so she was having a lot of the porno guys fuck her like Johnny Thrust and a bunch of other guys. On his death bed Bruce said, 'Dave I want you to keep on fucking my wife, that way I can go to heaven happily.' Anyway, she's been infatuated with Dave and had been stalking him for a good month and a half. I've seen it. She arrives at Dave's house. She sticks her head through the mail slot, comes walking around the back of the house and comes in. She never leaves him alone. Anytime he shows up anywhere, she shows up.
Lopatin: Since Bruce was diagnosed with terminal, inoperable cancer in January 1997 and put on medication which made him impotent, I've been very horny. This is a normal reaction. Bruce and I enjoyed our sex lives together, and had basically been monogamous for ten years until I made the mistake of having sex with Johnny Thrust, who came on to me. I'd known him for a few months over the phone, hadn't had sex for almost a year, but didn't know him well enough to realize that he was not only a complete jerk (he gave me a venereal disease and thought it was really funny) but also married.
Then I did scenes during the summer of 1998 as follows: two with Tony Everready, one with Rod Fontana, two with Bogus Bro.Will Savage (his partner, Alex Sao Paulo, shoots for me) and one with Mark Wood. And one with David. I needed the money. I would be happy to do more hardcore, but producers don't want the tattoos.
I have never stalked Dave. I have been at his house exactly five times since July 11. He has been at my house probably fifty times.
The first time I went to his house, it was at his invitation. I told him then and there that Bruce had said, long ago, that although Dave and I can be buddies, I'm not the right woman for David. David said, "We'll see about that" and initiated sex and said things with his cock inside me that indicated he felt very close to me."
The second time I went to his house, it was because I had a business appointment a few blocks away and showed up half an hour early, so thought I'd swing by. A shoot was in progress so I went round the back and played with the dog until they were finished. The shoot was hysterical, and great entertainment. I stayed out back until the sex scene wrapped, but caught the end of the dialogue. After Jim Powers and Floyd and the talent left, David kept me there so long just talking that I missed my appointment!
The third time I went to his house was a couple of days before I went to Arkansas to bury Bruce. I drove David out to Calabasas and he went running. I brought him home, and he said thank you for driving me out there.
When I got back, I immediately started working on the movie. The day before the incident, I went to re-up my PCR/DNA. After visiting Dr. Lepley at the testing clinic -- she said, "How's David?" and I told her I was worried because I hadn't been able to contact him. She asked me to give him her card, so I dropped it by his house while I was waiting for World Modeling to open back up after lunch. I left a letter, indicating my concern. The fifth time was "the incident."
Since Bruce's death I have mostly done nothing but handle details and plan services and feel grief. David was wonderful to me and I was grateful for his friendship.
Agent Orange: "About 9pm Wednesday night I got a call from Dave. He told me she was at his house. I asked him why he was whispering. He said he didn't want her to know he was inside the house. He said, 'Lynne, she's here. She won't leave me alone. I'm getting sick of it. What do I do?' I asked him, 'Dave have you ever told her you don't want to fuck her anymore. Why don't you try that.' He said, 'No, you don't understand. She's insane. She's on Prozac. She's been out here for an hour. She has a flashlight.'
Lopatin: Having a flashlight makes me insane? I was there for exactly 45 minutes total. I would have been there for 5 if he'd answered the door. I wouldn't have been there at all if he'd called me back to confirm the shoot date.
Agent Orange: "His pitbull was in the backyard going crazy. He said he was going to call the police. I told him not to call the police, talk to her. He said no, she was on Prozac, she was ruining his life. He called me back an hour later telling me the police were there. He told me that were outside handcuffing her. I asked why are they arresting her. He said they found a loaded pistol in her car. She told the cops as they were handcuffing her, 'You know I'm not wearing any underwear.' She was trying to pick up on the cops. Dave had to tell the whole deal to the cops about him being a porn star, that he was fucking her to keep her happy and that she had fallen in love with him. I don't think there will be a part 2 of that movie.
Astro, the pitbull, was not going crazy. He wasn't even in the back yard -- he was still locked in the house which to me meant that David wasn't home, because the dog is usually outside when he's home. That's one reason I was confused. The dog and I like each other -- I'm allergic to furry animals and can't have one, so I love to play with other people's dogs. If Astro had been out in the yard, I would have played happily with him until David "got home."
The cops asked me what I had on under the dress, because they wanted to search me. I told them, "Just bikini panties," so they couldn't search me without a female officer. Believe me, I was not trying to pick them up -- I was just trying to keep my composure and not cry and think clearly.
I've never really been "in love" with Dave. I think he's the greatest fuck I've ever had. I thought he was my best friend. My husband trusted him. I thought we could cross over together, with his acting talent and my producing/writing/promotion talent. I was hoping this was all a mistake. He's not the right man for me -- I'm too strong and smart, and he's not the sharpest tool in the shed and needs a more submissive girl who can really look up to him. But I honestly never had even the slightest clue that he resented me so much he would hurt me like that. I can only work towards recovering my emotional equilibrium so that our work together next Thursday is professional.
My friend, Angela Cee, who has worked for me both as talent and as a still photographer, came over to loan me a dress for Thursday's shoot and has this to say, "My friend Lynne is one of the best people I've ever met in my life. She has everything together as far as videos are concerned. As far as the people I've worked with since entering the industry, she's been the best. All I do is earn money from the other people, but Lynne's the best girlfriend I've met since entering the business.
"Each time Dave and I talk together, and he brings up Lynne's name, or I bring up Lynne's name, he always loved her to death, but then he couldn't say more. He's keeping his true feelings inside himself and is holding back things that he thinks are great, because he's trying to act like things aren't great, like they aren't really happening, like they aren't really real. Some people don't know how to react to that.
"I've worked with Dave for several jobs and he's a great fuck, but all he is is a great fuck, period. As far as Lynne goes with him and her, who knows what's happening, but as far as the business goes, he's a good fuck and that's all he is."
I'm sorry the whole thing happened, and it hurts like a son of a bitch, but I'm not angry at David, and I think that the people who know both of us know I'm not "psycho" and really care about my cast and crew. I'm not happy that he needs to blame me for his emotional inadequacies and communication difficulties, but that's just how he is. I'd like to make a few great porn movies and then move on to other cable television programming, specializing in quality and innovative entertainment of all types.
Regards,

P.S.: Jim Powers may personally be a two-faced little shit, but he makes some hysterically funny porn, and the Bukkake is some of the funniest (and most sociologically interesting) participatory pornography I've ever seen. It's a good place to scout for new male talent, and several of the other guys who participate are also my friends and/or talent I have worked with or intend to hire.
Lopatin adds in a lter e-mail: "Hi: I e-mailed Luke what I wrote to you -- I think Luke and I are "friends" but you never know these days.... and he did a great job of posting it for me.
"Anyway, here's something I haven't told Luke:
"Technically I own davehardman.com and davidhardman.com. David got final notices in the mail that they weren't going to hold the domain names without payment, so I told him I'd take care of it online with my credit card, which I did on July 27, registering casinoproductions.com at the same time. I still have his bills from Network Solutions, my VISA bill showing the charges, and could easily get back-up documentation from Network Solutions as to who made the purchase.
"Since it never occurred to me that David would suddenly and maliciously redefine our relationship, I never asked him to reimburse me because it wasn't that much money and not very urgent and I was very busy planning the services for my husband which were held on August 8.
"I think Dave has totally forgotten that because I paid for them in my name with my credit card, I now legally own his domain names.
"Again, I want to say "Thanks" for researching the story so that I had more information, plus I'm enjoying going back and forth between you and Luke in this way which benefits all three of us. Best Regards."

Katya, So Sorryski
Brad from Dangerboy writes: "What's up Gene? We're here at Dangerboy Headquarters and our new babe, Katya, is crying up a storm. She is feeling rejected by you. Since leaving your office on Thursday, all she is saying is that" I'm gonna be on Gene Ross". Now, after waiting for the update...NO ink. Now, I've explained that she should have blown you and she's willing to skateboard over there right now and fix the situation...just as long as she gets some well deserved ink. It's not like everyday that a russian pediatrician decides to come to town to take her first DP ever on camera, as well as absorb the rigors of a Mila / Dangerboy shoot.

Gene sez: "Extend the lovely lady my apologies, but she got blown off the front page by Lynne Lopatin and a loaded gun as the following story will indicate. Katya, for sure, will get her ink, Monday."
A Girl, A Guy and a Gun
The fact that Lynne Lopatin was supposed to be going out with Luke Ford this weekend for target practice takes on a whole new meaning after Lopatin's altercation with the police this past Wednesday night. Lopatin said she wasn't planning on making a statement because she has a $20,000 video project in production behind Dave Hardman who is the male lead in this police scenario. However... Lopatin was arrested for weapon's possession when she came over to Hardman's house to determine why he hadn't been returning her calls. Lopatin had wrap-ups to do next week on the feature.
Lopatin said she met Hardman when she was a production manager at Zane. She says they hit it off very well. Hardman, likewise, hit it off with Lopatin's late husband Bruce Walker. Lopatin says she met Walker when she worked at Parliament in 1988, when she used to write up orders and take them over to Gourmet, where Walker worked.
Lopatin: "When I got fired from Zane and started doing hardcore scenes, I'd always request Dave. Sometimes I'd get him, but I always asked. As my husband became more increasingly ill, we saw David two or three times a week. He'd come over to the house. Bruce had joined the cannabis club for his cancer. We'd get high. We'd have sex because prostate cancer makes you impotent.
"I got to shoot a movie for VCA in November. I used David. I made sure there was a part in it for him. We continued our relationship and h
