Like the Ents, the porn world is falling asleep this week in anticipation of the several days' debauch that is the AVN Expo in January. That doesn't mean that nothing was happening, or that Hailey Young here didn't lace up her fishnets just for us.

Tightfit Productions is a newish studio that just released a very interesting-looking movie called "Assraelis". Hedging its bets, the company threw a Christmas party featuring Lexi Bardot and this woman, whose name I didn't get, who looks very familiar (or, as a one-winged dove might say, hauntingly familiar), and who might not even be in the adult industry.

I bumped into both Moonlite Bunny Ranch owner Dennis Hof and director Roy Karch at the In 'n' Out Burger on Sunset Blvd. at 1 a.m. the other night. Maybe there's no snow at Christmas and public transportation sucks, but Hollywood is great for moments like this one. It also happens to be Karch's 60th birthday today.

Newbie ("She's only done about 30 scenes," said director Will Ryder) Veronique Vega prowls before a group of camera phones at the Tightfit party.

Finally, the divine Ms. Nina Hartley whispers sex-positive nothings to Santa, played by Jason Sinclaire (photo courtesy Kimberly Kane).
