The One Toke Over the Line award goes to UC Berkeley Professor John Morgan.
In researching who are more trustworthy, college students or porn industry business people, Professor Golden Hair came up with some startling results. His study showed that [are you sitting down?] porn industry business people are more trustworthy.
The research showed that those who work in the porn industry rely on teamwork and consequently, pro-social behavior such as trust and collaboration are essential to producing their products.
I thought it was hilarious too.

AIM’s Man of the Year, formerly known as the Darren James award, is Cameron Reid.
Just in time for the Christmas rush, Reid broke his silence to the press and hit AIM with a broadside that, along with California Department of Public Health and the LA City Counsel, may in the long run sink the clinic for good.
Reid made several allegations in which he claims AIM failed to support him by providing counseling and medical referrals after he was diagnosed with HIV. He also suggested that AIM tried to sweep this incident under the rug by suggesting to him that he leave town.
No matter that nobody's certain how he contracted the disease: whether it was from a gay porn shoot or his alleged side job as male escort, he's now the latest poster child for the AIDS Healthcare Foundation and the crackpot, Shelly Lubben, in their tireless attack on the porn industry.

This week’s Steve ‘Papa Smurf’ Hersch Media Whore Award winner is none other than Papa Smurf himself.
Laid off from his side job as an elf in Santa’s workshop [the recession has even hit the North Pole], Papa Smurf found himself with plenty of time to fire off two self-promoting press releases this week.
Still oddly obsessed with Octomom, Papa Smurf’s latest attempt to bring her into the Vivid fold was to offer her a job as a VIP party hostess at AEE.
It appears yet again that Octomom rejected his advances: “Nayda did not even consider the offer from Vivid for one second.”

Persistent cuss that he is, Papa Smurf came up with another headline grabbing D list celebrity sex tape offer later in the week. This time Angelina Pivarnick, the axed former co-star of MTV's Jersey Shore, was given an offer she couldn’t refuse: $50,000 and a cut of the profits.
When asked by RadarOnLine if she was interested: "No, I'm not. I'm definitely not," she said.
Being a shameless self-promoter is what being a media whore is all about and Papa Smurf is this industry’s best…for now.

The Tricky Dick award goes to Devon James and her dimwitted chubby hubby, Nick.
Caught red-handed and still lying through their teeth, they now tell RadarOnLine.com that they stopped selling the Tiger Woods sex tape because he paid her off not to release it. Of course he did.
"Our settlement is done so we're not releasing a tape," Nick told RadarOnline.com. He claimed that the couple would have the settlement money by the end of the week. Sure, and the AIDS Healthcare Foundation and AIM will be kissing under the mistletoe on Christmas Eve.
These two dolts make Randy and Evi Quaid look like Citizen of the Year candidates.
