This is Way More Important than Somali Pirates

If it were up to us, the news this weekend would have been dominated totally with adult news: a gay porn star passed away and a gay porn killer won't go away.

We learned from the Gay Porn Times that former gay porn star Steve Pierce was found dead on March 12 in Palm Springs. No cause of death was given. Pierce had a long career in the adult business as a model and escort, starting in the mid-'90s. He starred in films like "Prowl 1 & 2," "Johnny Hormone" and 2002's "Stick it In," which this photo is taken from. However, his proudest accomplishment was publishing his ecological sci-fi book "World Without Winter". He will be sadly missed.

One person who we don't miss writing about or hearing about is gay porn killer Harlow Cuadra. But, like a bad case of the crabs, he's back and ready for more. He has appealed his guilty verdict in the murder of Cobra Video founder Bryan Kochis. Documents he submitted at the courthouse merely said, "[Cuadra] hereby appeals to the Superior Court of Pennsylvania from the conviction and sentence on March 16, 2009." No reason was given, but we can't fucking wait to her the bullshit this kid comes up with.
