Doc here, a man who some say can still execute a Triple Lindy with pinpoint precision, with a new feature here at The Journal, "APB". In APB, I will either put out a call for someone or some couples I know in the scene, who have contributed to The Journal in some way or fashion since it's inception. It also means that the contact info I had for them doesn't work any longer. The first APB I am putting out is for a great couple that were my first couple's contributors, Alex and Lauren. Their exploits at CVE in Gastonia, NC were legendary, and extremely informative to those who had never gone there.
I have recently received a few e-mails a month asking about there whereabouts, and if they were still going to CVE. My last contact info for them had a non-working e-mail address, thus this APB.
Doc here, a man who some say was once known as the "Sausage King of Western NY", with an epic Flash Report from my good friends Senior Reporter Anaconda and the legendary @Kim_in_Public .
In this visit from just yesterday, Kim and Anaconda hit the equally legendary Berlin News Agency in NJ, and it sounds from all reports it was a crowd pleaser!
Take it away, Anaconda (& Kim)!

Hey Doc! Anaconda back again with another glowing report from Berlin News Agency, this time featuring the one and only... @Kim_In_Public. Our story begins in a fashion that will sound very familiar to your regular readers...
Kim and I arranged to meet around lunchtime at a local watering hole, and when we arrived, we took up spots at the corner of the bar. Kim was wearing a short black dress, which showed off her sexy curves, beautiful purple heels and of course, no bra or panties. We each ordered a large pour of red wine and shortly into our visit, we were joined by another man whom Kim had invited to join, who is also a strict voyeur and we'll call him "S."
So, our happy little 3-some sat at the bar, sharing a few drinks, a lot of laughs and a few discreet flashes and touches. The sexual tension was building and we were having a great time. However, we are intelligent adults and we learn from our mistakes, so we ABSOLUTELY capped the bar portion of the day at 3 drinks. I also made sure to come to a clear understanding of Kim's ground rules BEFORE walking in the front door of the theater!!
@Kim_n_Public
S and I arrived at BNA somewhere around2:30. Kim had become sidetracked by real life en route, so she arrived a few minutes later. In the meantime, S and myself had a nice chat with Paul and Brenda (ed. note: Hi Paul & Brenda!) behind the counter and expressed our deep gratitude for running such an excellent establishment where our kind of shenanigans are welcomed. When Kim arrived she enthusiastically agreed to take some pictures with Paul that have become a mainstay of BNA as the pics of visiting women cycle in a slideshow on a big screen behind the counter (no faces of course, except Paul's, and boobs and butts). With that business taken care of, we entered the theater.

This thing of ours is a fickle mistress at times. At times, it can yield wonders beyond expectations. At other's, what appears to be be an ideal plan of an evening results in the loser game show noise.
Senior reporter Anaconda, a man sometimes called "El grande serpiente" by the natives of Tijuana, visited my good friends at Fantasyland 1&2 in Tampa, Fl earlier this month, and hit a night that was not typical at this legendary adult theater spot.
It is here where we pick up our report... Take it away Anaconda!

Hey Doc!
Anaconda back with another report. Like my last one from San Diego, this will be a case study in missed opportunities from a vibrant location in "this thing of ours" that I do not get the chance to visit very often.
Fantasyland 1
Tampa
My travels took me to the Tampa area last week and I had a free Friday (2/2) night to check out one of the top spots for theater fun, Fantasyland 1&2. This was my second trip and I was very much looking forward to the opportunity to attend on a Friday night vs. my last trip which was on a Wednesday night and had minimal action. I was confident that a Friday night would bear much more fruit.
I rolled into FL1 around 8PM to a decent # of cars, but certainly not packed. I entered, paid my $25 admission and refreshed my memory on the FL1+2 pricing for hopping back and forth (additional $10 for admission to both) on the 12 hour ticket. I walked into the theater and took a seat. It was just me and one other dude in there. There were several guys milling around in the store and chatting it up with the manager behind the counter. I stayed for about 30 minutes with no change to the crowd and headed over to Fantasyland 2.

Senior Journal scribe Dry Clean Only is back, and in this terrific report, covers 2 early evenings at PastTime Video in Steubenville, OH, including encountering a couple who were Journal readers!
Take it away, Dry Clean Only!

Hi, Doc!
Brief update for you after a brief trip to Pittsburgh in January. I was thinking with my dick instead of my brain and popped into Pulaski at 4:30pm one Wednesday... Of course, no couples, actually nothing going on. The proprietor was a living meme of a WWF star, and was almost begging for me to spend some money. No couples special days or times, but "couples come all the time". The booths are a little creepy in that they only have cheap cloth curtains to serve as doors, and I noticed that in at least one booth there was a black-domed surveillance camera on the ceiling of one booth ---- I think that's pretty slimy. I didn't bother peeking inside the theater as there was only one car in the driveway and it belonged to a guy chatting with the proprietor. The cigarette smoke was a turnoff, too.
From there, I swung down to PastTimes in Steubenville, OH and spent the early and mid evening hoping a couple would appear, which isn't out of the ordinary at PastTimes on any given day of the week.

As it turned out, it was about eight guys milling around. Fortunately, business wrapped up on Thursday afternoon a little earlier than I had expected, and I trekked back to PastTimes at about 2pm. I arrived and found the place to have been filled with guys. There must have been about 25 or more guys enjoying the booths and theater areas, while waiting for lady luck to arrive... as Thursday is "couples day" (i.e.free admission).
Doc here, a man who some say was once cast in the role of "Domingo" in the 1978 feature film "Piranha". Critics hailed his performance as "unusual", "rough around the edges", and "miscast". Well kids, we are half way through our year long journey with my good friend the legendary Candi O, and her last 12 visits to adult theaters across this great country of ours. We have now hit February, and Candi O and her hubby Mr. O found themselves in The Big Easy, New Orleans during Mardi Gras. Perfect! Take it away, Candi O! *** Chapter 6 - Adult Video, 6420 Chef Mentuer Hwy. New Orleans, LA
Adult Video New Orlenans LA
Early February, Mardi Gras, New Orleans, La. Bubbles, beads, and boobs.
We are halfway through what my husband refers to as our “cum on a legend tour”, lol. We always attempt to cloak our sexual adventures within normal vacations. This chapter brought us to New Orleans during America’s most infamous party.
Candi O on Bourbon Street
Mardi Gras is actually tame by most wild party standards. Bourbon Street was so littered with beads that it was akin to walking on marbles. The majority of which are unearned. My tits, however, were often on full display and my beads were eagerly dropped from crowded balconies. My strings were lighted, ostentatious, and highly coveted. I gave them away for a flirtatious kiss at the bar, a subtle rise in the jeans, followed by a visit to my hotel bedroom. I mounted three nice cocks in this fashion prior to our grand finale; a visit to a local adult venue.

Doc here with some news that genuinely makes me sad...
My friend Pete Kaloghirou, the former owner of CTs Adult Theater in Gary, IN, passed away on January 30th, 2018 (thanks to V for giving me the head's up on this news today 2/22/18). The past year was hard on Pete, and I'm sure it didn't help in regard to his health.
I first met Pete in 2004, a short time after I moved to The Valley from my old stomping grounds in NY. Upon doing research on adult theaters and ABSs in the Chicagoland area, I found CTs, and decided to drive by and check it out.
I pulled into the gravel parking lot of CTs, just in time to see two guys building what I would soon discover to be one of the 4 video booths that would be installed in the store. I joked with them I should have brought my tools, since I was in the midst moving into the Chez Lizardo at that time. We shared a good laugh, and that was the first time I shook Pete's hand.
(The Former) CTs Adult Theater
Gary, IN
During the first few years of stopping by CTs to take in a feature or two, an ever-present fixture at CTs was Pete's dad, who stood (actually sat) sentry by the door, and in very broken English, would tell the person walking in the door fee before saddling up to the counter to pay your admission. Everyone loved Papi. And Papi was very old, and eventually Papi was no longer at the front door.
Papi's passing took a lot out of Pete, and in many ways Pete was never quite the same after that event.
Starting in 2012, and running through early 2017, I was fortunate to host Pete's biggest night of the year at CTs: the annual "Party with Creampie Cathy" event. For 6 consecutive years, on a single night, CTs was the mecca of adult theaters in the US. Having a well-known and awesome porn star in the house was good for (monkey) business, and every year Cathy rocked the old place.
Every year, when wrapping up the Cathy event, I would hug Pete on the way out as a way of saying thanks for providing us a safe space for the event. Last year's hug felt a little different, as there were changes on the way, and this was most likely the last event we'd do there.
And it was. Within 2 months, CTs would be closed for good, a victim of the changing times and a couple of questionable decisions. That last event was also the last time I saw Pete, and the last hug we shared.
Thank you Pete. You provided a place for many to fly their freak flag in a no-frills environment. A place for years was argueably the most hardcore adult theater in the US.
Your place saw many a crazy scene, many of which I'll never forget. Much like yourself, sir. Thank you for everything.
Rest in peace, Pete.
-Doc
PS. I would love to publish a "Best of CTs" series here at The Journal, but I will need your help.
If you have a special or hottest memory of CTs, please submit a report directly to me at emiliolizardo1@gmail.com . I have a bunch, like my first encounter with my good friends Stunt Slut Simone & Mr. S, Red Dawn creating content for her site, the crazy run of Matt & Amy, Friday nights with Cathy the BJ Queen, Robin, Downtown Jewels, Lainey from Texas, the Lovely Tina, and many, many more.
Let's hear your reports, as we tip our hat to Pete. Thanks.
Doc here, a man who some say was a ghost. He didn't see anyone. No one saw him. He was the barber. Well my friends, you can call off the Lizardo Alert and cancel the APB on The Good Doctor. After a few days away from the editors desk here at The Journal (near the small women's liberal arts college), I'm back in my overstuffed leather office chair, Bloody Mary to my right, a large meatball to my left. Let's rock. I have some great reports in the hopper, including the next Chapter from my good friend Candi O, in her farewell tour of adult theaters. And this one my friends is a doozy. A recap from last Saturday's huge Secret Room 2125: Anniversary Party at 15th Ave. Adult Theaterin Chicago (co-hosted with the awesome Twistingly) is also coming post haste. And if that wasn't enough, a lot of great Flash Reports from both new and veteran Journal scribes. So kids, take a deep breath, your funky Godfather of this thing of ours has plenty of funk left in his gas tank. Thanks, Doc @LizardoJournalon Twitter
