jonno d'addario When Jonno and I met at a skeevy (awesome) gay bar called Dick's in the East Village in the summer of 2002, it was love at first sight. He was the first near-stranger I'd ever done a Mind Eraser with.

Times were different then. You could still smoke in bars, no one had ever heard of Choire Sicha, Fleshbot.com was but a gleam in Nick Denton's eye, my vagina was still in its 20s, and Jonno was considering moving back to New York from his current home in New Orleans. Now all of that has changed. But there's still that flickering fantasy of flying away to a private island and sipping Apple Martinis while Jonno sucks on my toes.

Blaise K: You're the real Jenny from the block, born and bred in the Bronx. What (if anything) do you miss most about New York?

Jonno d'Addario: The smell of honey roasted peanuts on the streets during winter (which always smell better than they taste), discrete seasons in general, Murray's Bagels, the street where I used to live (though not my old apartment), and other things like art, culture, and shopping. Then again, bars are open 24 hours here in New Orleans and I can smoke wherever I want, so I guess it's a fair tradeoff.

Blaise K: What do you do when you feel uninspired?
Jonno d'Addario: Masturbate, usually, then take a nap. The world always looks brighter afterwards.

BK: What was the last crazy thing you were told you did but don't remember?
JD: I was told I was making out with a girl at the bar at a Scissor Sisters concert I went to the weekend before last. I remember talking to her, but not the making out part. Maybe she slipped something in my drink?

BK: Describe your life in New Orleans in one word.
JD: Streetcar!

BK: Describe your relationship with your hot ass BF Rico in one word.
JD: Oklahoma!

BK: Have you gotten sick of sex and porn since you became Mr. Fleshbot?
JD: As long as there are things like new celebrity nipple slips, obscure Japanese fetishes I haven't heard of, and creative indie smut being produced, porn will always be at least interesting, even if I can't really watch it recreationally as much as I used to - I'm always taking mental notes. As for getting sick of sex, however, what kind of question is that? Surely you know me better than to ask.

BK: Which night was better: the first time I met you at Dick's bar in the East Village nearly three years ago, or the last time you and I saw each other when you were here for Halloween nearly three months ago?
JD: Yes. (Surely you don't want everyone to know the details of our multiple erotic encounters, do you?)
