Tim Valenti & The State of the Porn Union
One thing I left out of the original birthday post below for Tim Valenti, founder and CEO of NakedSword and President of Falcon Studios Group, is that he was about to be man a move.
As I covered in the 2016 Cybersocket Awards post game show this morning, Tim was there last night to accept the award when it was announced that NakedSword was the surfer’s choice for Best VOD Site.
His schedule today was far from idle. Tim Valenti delivered the keynote address at XBiz Show, the yearly adult industry trade show the preceeds the Xbiz Awards.
So how did the speech go?

Of course, it was a triumph.
And didn’t he look handsome!
Way to go, Fearless Leader!

I said this first here at GayPornBlog shortly before Thanksgiving when I shared the news that Tim Valenti, founder and CEO of NakedSword will also assume the role of President of Falcon Studios Group following the retirement of outgoing studio president Chris Ward.
Back in the dial-up modem days, I actually got into the adult industry as a webmaster to earn enough to pay for my NakedSword membership. Over the years, Tim Valenti and I became more than colleagues, we became friends. Not “chums” as in the “Facebook” category, but the true meaning of the word always sought after, but seldom realized. Being part of the team as Tim Valenti, NakedSword and the Falcon Studios Group architect the next generation in the very best in gay adult entertainment is both an honor and privilege.
As Tim embarks on this most exciting new phase, there is one additional thing I joyfully add today …
Hau`oli Lā Hānau, my friend! Many, m-a-n-y more!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my boss, my co-host, my cohort, and my friend. Today I’m grateful you were born and that somehow the universe put us together. It’s been a blast and there’s much more to come.
Love you!
