(Well-endowed porn actors and masturbation sleeves are on the menu, so this posting is unsuitable for kids and the sexually modest)
On Sunday, my e-mail once again brought me, by happy accident, two mailings (as it happened, back-to-back this time) on a theme (AMZ pseudonyms this time). As reported in that day’s posting, “Gigantic cylinders”, the earlier fortuitous confluence had to do with two gigantic solid-cylindrical things: one raunchy — porn actor Sir Peter’s gigantic penis — and one innocent — White Giant calla lilies — while Sunday’s pseudonymy theme involved, first a raunchy name — Baxxx, the name of fitness model and gay porn actor (aka Baxter Linn), who’s now the spokesperson for the Fleshjack masturbation sleeve — and then, in the very next message, an innocent name — BigAlex, the trade name for a fancy walking cane that my friend Bonnie Bendon Campbell uses.
Both of these names fortuitously allude to AMZ pseudonyms. I am sometimes Alex Adams, or just Alex, and I am sometimes ba (for biiig arnold, a playful spelling for the jocular Big Arnold). I am also the creator of XXX-rated comic homoerotic collages, so I could be said to be baXXX. And then from Big Arnold and Alex for Arnold, we get Big Alex / BigAlex.
Knowing the history of my pseudonyms, Bonnie was entirely aware of the significance of the name BigAlex, so sent me a photo of her cane. Fleshjack’s guy being called Baxxx, however, was just a wonderful surprise — an onomastic windfall.
Background. From my 1/6/11 posting “Pseudonyms”, a huge collection of the names I’d collected over the preceding years, these two:
3. Alex(ander) Adams — my name for making reservations, since “Arnold Zwicky” is rarely heard correctly over the phone; and eventually my sexy alter ego Alex
4. biiig arnold / b a (in p a) — a [soc.]motss joke on my putatively imposing size, with a reference to Palo Alto
The playful spelling biiig was intended to be iconic (more vowel letters, bigger guy), and all in lower case because that was my typing fashion (for greater speed and fewer typos); and the full nickname Big Arnold was jocular in the fashion of big guys nicknamed Shrimp and little guys nicknamed Jumbo; I’m a small-boned, physically modest man, of average height (then; several inches less now), with a dick that is merely on the lower end of normal (it would fit well in classical male nude statuary) but therefore counts as small for American men judging male bodies. In any case: Big Arnold, or Biiig Arnold, or B A. And it’s a joke, son.
Raunchy: the HUNT ezine special offer. From Falcon Studios in e-mail on 5/25, headed “Introducing the Baxxx Fleshjack and Dildo”:
(#1) The ad, with Baxxx holding a dildo and a masturbation sleeve
The ad links to the Fleshjack masturbation sleeve and dildo site, where the company exclaims “Introducing our Newest Fleshjack Boy!” and tells us:

The newest Fleshjack Boy is a boy no longer; fitness model and porn actor Baxxx, aka Baxter Linn, was born 11/23/89 — so he’s now 35 — in Gales Ferry CT. He’s a short guy (height 5′5″, weight 160 lbs of muscle), almost alarmingly ripped, but with a smiling, amiable presentation of himself. He’s listed as having a fine pornstar dick (7″ length, 5.5″ girth (1.75″ width)), but one not so big as to be off-putting. He’s versatile in position (though his first scene bottoming was apparently in 2023; before that, his porn work was as a top) and has acted for Sean Cody, Falcon Studios, Raging Stallion, and Active Duty.
Like many porn actors, he’s changed his look. Here’s his earlier look:
(#2) Shave the head, bulk up some more, get elaborate tats from wrist to shoulder on the right, and you’ve got the Fleshjack Boy
Innocent: the excellent cane. A cane called (by its maker) Big Alex, its name visible in this close-up photo Bonnie took of her constant companion:
(#3) BigAlex is a trademark registered in the US to the Ningbo Huanyu Ecommerce Co. in the Chinese industrial city of Ningbo; more about the company below
Bonnie’s Big Alex looks like a step above the nice cane I got after my hip replacement operation. From my 12/9/12 posting “Coming back to life”:
Yesterday I picked up a four-legged cane, or quad cane as the things seem to be called in the assistive literature, so I now lope around indoors with my interrogative friend:

The actual Chinese company seems to be named Ningbo Huanyu. Ningbo is a place name. From Wikipedia:
Ningbo is a sub-provincial city in northeastern Zhejiang province, People’s Republic of China. It comprises six urban districts, two satellite county-level cities, and two rural counties, including several islands in Hangzhou Bay and the East China Sea. Ningbo is the southern economic center of the Yangtze Delta megalopolis. The port of Ningbo–Zhoushan, spread across several locations, is the world’s busiest port by cargo tonnage and world’s third-busiest container port since 2010.
Ningbo is the core city and center of the Ningbo Metropolitan Area. To the north, Hangzhou Bay separates Ningbo from Shanghai; to the east lies Zhoushan in the East China Sea; on the west and south, Ningbo borders Shaoxing and Taizhou respectively. As of the 2020 Chinese national census, the entire administrated area of Ningbo City had a population of 9.4 million
The Huanyu in the company’s name turns out to be an auspicious name for enterprises: Mandarin huān yú ‘happy, joyous, delighted’. Some others with Huanyu in their name: a maker of shower accessories, a maker of plush toys, a maker of kitchen tools, a film production company and talent agency, “a high-tech enterprise focusing on the development, manufacturing and marketing of low-voltage electrical components”.
So: Bonnie’s cane comes from the Ningbo Happy Co. She got it through Amazon. I got mine through the Palo Alto Medical Foundation; it’s probably Chinese-made too, I just couldn’t find a brand stamp on it anywhere.
