Hey! What’s going on with pioneer blogger and charismatic Internet personality Luke Ford<\/a>? The Woodstein of the pornography industry-turned-conflicted Orthodox Jew has always been a controversial figure, but as long as we’ve known him, he’s also been a well-groomed, camera-ready media star.<\/p>\n

So imagine our surprise when we strolled though his site<\/a> to see a photo of Luke looking like he’d been voted off Survivor, escaped from Josef Fritzl’s cellar or at the very least stepped off a Chabad mitzvah tank.<\/p>\n

We asked Luke what’s up.<\/p>\n

TB: <\/span>Nice new look. Is it religious-inspired or are you preparing for a movie role?<\/span><\/div>\n

\nLuke: <\/span>Yeah, the beard is a religious thing. I read an article in the February issue of Commentary magazine on the role of the beard in Judaism and then went to lunch and sat next to a guy with a beautiful long white beard — the singer <\/span>Rick Moses<\/a>, a fellow convert to Judaism — that I decided to grow a beard.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Have you indeed given up the porn coverage?<\/span><\/p>\n

I sold lukeisback<\/a> last October and have not written on porn since (not for any sites that have porn advertising anyway, I guess I’ve mentioned the topic a few times on lukeford.net<\/a>).<\/span><\/p>\n

Have you given up all secular pursuits?<\/span><\/p>\n

I have not given up all secular pursuits by any means.<\/span><\/p>\n

Who do you endorse for president?<\/span><\/p>\n

I don’t endorse anyone for president, but expect I’ll be voting for McCain. Uggh.<\/span><\/p>\n

Anything else to report?<\/span><\/p>\n

Could you mention or link to my <\/span>live cam<\/a>?<\/span><\/p>\n

You got it.<\/span><\/p>\n
