    PHEW - that's a LOT of questions. Anyone with some gay love photos of lars please post them here. And ENJOY the answers cause Lars is without a doubt one of the smartest people I have ever met. There's more wisdom in his words than most care to admit. When he speaks - LISTEN, trust me - LISTEN. Little ideas I got from him have made me stupid amounts of money.

                                    let me just go on the record as saying that Lars is 1 part filthy and 2 parts rich and it's for this reason that I totally respect the guy. Because he's rich? No... but because you'd never know it to talk to him. He's totally down to earth, very kind and got a great sense of humor. He's just one of the guys and modest about it... having a tiny wee wee might have something to do with that too. j/k

                                          I was on a bus with Lars at internext and he said this (referring to himself in the third person)

                                          "Don't listen to anything that guys says, besides, I hear he has a small penis anyways"

                                          So I'd take his answers with a 50lb bag of salt
                                          sig too big

                                                                            There are no bad buisiness faliures only learning experiences. I have had as many flopps as success, but each one has taught me a lesson that is carried on to the next project , or has taught me how to carry myself or interact with people. Some of the flops that come to mind are investments in several start up companies, that I was not controlling that went belly up with the implosion of the dot com boom. But our of one of those came streamray, so it was worth the loss ;) I prolly lost more in teh stock market than I have on all my otehr bad deals combined. Good news is I am up for all time so I figure I am ahead of the game now the last few years have been very good to me in the markets, more on that later. Another flop was a infomercial we did around camgirls I wanted to do a girls gon wild knockoff like the best of camgirls shows. Totally bombed, but I learned a lot about production and media buys I tried to knock off virtual girl but was only mildly successfull not enough for me to continue in that arena. My hats off to Rex and crew its not an easy product to pull off ! I tried to do paysites in 1997-1998 but got fuckerd by dmr when they went belly up ! Then I rebuilt and got fuckered by the guy who was running the backend for me. So I missed a lot of the paysite game that prolly woulda made me huge cash. But even that miss just madwe me hungry so when streamray came along I beat the living shit outta it Fortunately so far my bombs have not been huge money loosers. So I am ahead of the game.

                                                                              You'd have to be crazy to post that kind of info.

                                                                                            Ok so I was running cyberzine.com and I took a wrong turn down a road one day in 1994. At the end of this road was a store and on the store was a huge sign that said SYSTEM V internet highway.. This was very unusual hardly anyone even know what the interent was in 1994 and to see a huge sign even more crazy. So I pulled over mind you I was 25 and still wet behind the ears. I walk in and there are like 3 guys running this unix house. I tell them about my site and at that time you gotta understand like I am 1 listing out of like 500 on yahoo. At that time is was Jakebono.stanford.edu there was no yahoo yet but that was it.. So the guy says I know your work I have seen it and think its good. So they say hey you should team up with us. After much wrangling I entered into a partnership with these guys. everything was kewl. One of the guys was a gold medalist in swimming, and he had the gift of gab. We were all ready to move into the netcom building netcom was a dial up ISP one of the first big nationwide ones and we had ties to them. The day we moved all our stuff in the swimmer guy got pissed about something snuck in in the middle of the night and walked with the equipment. I ended up with all his stock in the company since I took over all his work. My partner had registered the name webtv.com and we started doing buisness as this name for our design and hosting company. About 6 months into this company 2 guys came one day and offered to buy the name for 15K My partner said no thank you. We ended up changing the name of the company to IPP.COM internet presence providers, and we let the webtv sitre just be like a co brand. but pushed everyone to IPP.COM some years went bye and the 2 guys came back an said we are webtv give us the name. And they started to sue my partner. Somewhere in there being the dumb fuck i am said you should just have webtv.com since you were the one who originally bought it. anyway long story short because we did buisness as that name we had first right on the name and they had dick. They ended up settling. And i told my partner he was settling too cheap. The next day after he settled Microsoft bought the company they were just waiting on this one deal to go down in order to close th 400 million buck deal with microsoft. hahah he had them by the balls and let it go. He still made out good but he could a done better and i got LARSED. IPP was eventually sold to a public company and I made a nice chucnk of change in tthe hosting biz long before anyone even knew what hosting was. That was the most work I ever did for the least ammount of money though !
