The effort is there, but like a near-sighted Bolivian firing squad, the execution isn't. Rick Savage's N.Y. Video Magazine attempts to move into the Radical Affairs neighborhood but finds itself in a one room flat in the Bowery. The adult industry could use another successful video mag but quite frankly, zoom in, zoom out, zoom in, just doesn't make it.

Sasha Sweet is the ditzy (she's so convincing, one has to wonder if she's really acting) "gal on the street" who introduces each vignette or chapter. Chapter one stars the cute and natural-titted Shannon Rush who's always fantasized about fucking a cop. (I've been fucked by the police, so I guess turnabout is fair play). Bob Magnum is convincing as the cop, and the fact that his gut look like it's seen the inside of a few Dunkin' Donuts adds to the illusion. An enthusiastic baton sucking and moan-rich fingering gives these Chemistry students high marks. In fact the major problem isn't the sex, it's the coverage (or lack of it) that proves to be the ice cube cooling down this potentially hot vid.

"Boardwalk Babe" stars the tan, blonde Dynasty in a solo performance. The cameraman can't help but get a good shot as the con-porn-tionist wraps her ankles around her head. She fondles the sex slot machine and comes up with two tits and one cherry. Jackpot.

Kathy Lipps (appropriate name) gets flipped and fucked by her Karate teacher and first time performer, Kevin Qurtin. Kathy stretches her legs, while Kevin helps with her jewelry-clad lips. Following instructions well, she works his nun-chucks before he demonstrates a missionary-doggie katta. She quivers as he lets loose with a cum-kick to her face and head.

Other scenes include Rick Savage laying his chop-stix on China Lee, and Darren Ducati having her first on-screen girl/girler. Like the Norwood field goal attempt at the end of Superbowl XXV, the vid misses - wide right. Rick, give it another shot but pleas,e leave the damn tripod home.
