I personally don't want to burn them. I want to repaint them and turn them into BDSM dungeons.

I am pretty much a libertarian when it comes to drugs and alcohol. If you want to smoke marijuana, fine. Do so. I live in California as mentioned which is a decriminalized zone in regards to marijuana. Here it is just like Canada, a small $100 fine for up to an ounce on you.

Some people reading this thread probably live in towns and cities where this is not the case. But here, you get in more trouble for walking around with an open container of beer than marijuana. California decriminalized in 1976, and has been the discussion point of many for decades and its success is really why the "decriminalized" approach is being accepted in more places throughout America. The police reports do not lie, the propaganda does.

Professors across America and even a local Judge up for Senate has talked about how if Americans knew how much of their money is being wasted in the drug war, theyd stop paying taxes. Anyway - not to go too far into this - facts

California saves billions alone by being decriminalized. I am absolutely in favor of medical marijuana.

As for booze, same thing. One can follow history and see what happened during "Prohibition" in the U.S. regarding alcohol. You want to drink? Fine.

As for me being an alcoholic. Yes. I sure am. I have been through AA and even still have my chip! It took a lot to go the first meeting and accept it, but after doing that it's been very easy now to no longer drink every day.

I do not drink everyday anymore, and can control my drinking now,... and that alone is great.

My parents always refer to me as a normy. If they only knew about my internet porn addiction.. But then I starting working in porn and my addiction became my complete source of income. I got desensitized to pic after pic after pic of thumbing galleries, uploading videos and what not. Now I am addicted to making money. The more money I make and the faster I can do it in. Feels good to be able to admit that.

Great subject.

For as long as I can recall I have been attracted to art. And in High School I won a scholarship/contest with a drawing. When I got to college, I used all the money to buy art supplies, which I needed help with and pretty much spent the next 3+ years partying and hanging out with the art/music crowd.

When I started volunteering to work at museums and openings etc, is when I really got turned on to it. Ive met some great artists such as Dale Chihuly (glass blower) and even now, try to make art shows and things I can find. Ive personally, helped put together a few exhibits: the most famous would be a Pop Art Exhibit with pieces from Lichtenstein, Basquiat, Andy Warhol, Koons, Keith Haring... the list goes on. Its quite a thing to handle a Lichtensein painting that is in humidity controlled environment and a price tag of $3+ million easy.

And at the same tiime, ive worked with artists who were less known. William Cristenberry, Dieter Appelt - all whom even just meeting these people forever changed my life. Artists are weird people.

I don't think anyone can say bad things about art, whether it pisses you off or saddens you, or if it just some paint splatter like Jackson Pollack.

All I know is I hated getting fucked over, and unless youre in an open agreement type of relationship - you may want to keep your dinky in your pants at the next convention.

While working at the Art Center the idea came to install a cyber cafe. My close friend at the time was in charge of setting everything up {finding someone to donate the T1, have an artist come in and design the place, set up nightly events etc pretty much like running a club with 10 computers and fast ass connection. We had keys to the place so we were up late at night after hours just surfing the net. My friend was trying to figure out a way to make money with those "click" ad things and I just wasnt interested. I was making band sites for bands I liked.

The way I got into adult internet is very, very simple but involves some early on quick and lucky thinking. To make a long story short, my girlfriend and I clicked through a "webmaster" link on a site and emailed the owners about an idea we had. It resulted in them biting, and sending us advance money with the promise of some content examples.

Basically, all they wanted us to do was set up "hidden camera" type of things. One was a fake "dorm cam" which was nothing more than a room that we designed to look like a dorm with live cams. And 2 was to record partying downtown Bourbon street style new orleans partying and send them the footage. Easy enough. They kept sending us money, we hired a couple girls to sit on cam and went out and had all drinks paid for and expensives covered, all we did was record partying. This was 1998.

The company decided to stop its porn involvement. It was a big mainstream company investing in small porn side business. We were doing good but the company decided to no longer do the "hidden" cam stuff. So they said keep the cams and gear - just send us all footage and we consider it done. Was a learning experience but was lucky to say the least,.. i was only 22ish?

After that - I just started looking for info online and what we could do to make money. We moved to California and next thing I know we are making $25 (at the time) sales with Click Cash on a couple hundred hits a day. So it doesnt take too hard to figure out, more clicks = more signups.

I started designing for people and started working with people and here I am.

I haven't really had many real jobs.

I did telemarting as you mentioned. And did that through highschool. The best part of it was I only worked 3 hours a day, while my buddies were either delivering pizzas or working in fast food. I learned it was easy to make money over the phone, and did very well. I learned early-on its better to work for commission than be on the clock.

The stress involved in reaching nightyly totals is probably the most aggrivating part. Managers constantly trying to get you to reach goals, even on good/bad nights etc.

Ive never worked fast food or anything that sucked that bad. I was pretty lucky in regards to that. I have made money with computers since my first job.

I went from that to a little bartending and setting up the cams so I dont actually have much job experience. I hated working for people and consider myself lucky to have remained working from home for so long.

Getting paid to film live outdoor concert events, and being part of them. I like working with bands and music. This was the most fun I ever had.Ive been around musicians my whole life and having to work with music, was not even considered work to me.

I got to party with a lot of known musicians backstage and that was fun.

I like kids. They tend to like me. Ive worked with kids in my art background and really enjoyed working with kids and art. They dont look at things the way adult do, and their fresh look on things always seem less prejudiced and genuine.

I can remember some of the first times as a kid fooling with art, crayons, scissors, paste etc... those were the fun days. Creating things.

I like the thought that somewhere some kid actually was inspired by the day at the art center with that crazy guy flinging paint onto canvas, and actually goes on to do something creative. I did various things (volunteer) with kids during my time at the art center. It started with giving tours and just moved into small workshops and such and just working with kids in general. I liked that.

As for volunteer work. Yes, I volunteered at the art center for years actually before I was being paid to be there. But more interestingly, I designed Haunted Houses and helped with special effects and scenes in Halloween "Haunted Houses" - raising money for deaf and blind kids. It was an annual event, but we worked about 5 months out of a year on it.

Did everything from make buckets of fake blood, to learning how to make people "disappear" with the use of mirrors. I built guilotines and was basically, there to do whatever was needed. My favorite was mirrors. Ive always been fascinated with those things. Horror movies, haunted houses - good stuff.

As for kids of my own, Im not at a point where I am thinking about children right now.

While I have spoken to MANY, people in this industry over the phone. I have only met one. If by indutsry you mean from GFY etc... ive met enough talent and stuff. I wont name them.

The beloved and infamous Joe Sixpack.

Whom, even though some of you hate the guy, he is a webmaster and was kick ass to party with for a few days. We had a great time. I showed him Hollywood, got him seated in the hotel Jim Morrison of the doors lived in for 2 years, and just had a great time. No business, just fun.

No, i don't bite, Im just not into pictures.

Simple answer would be yes.

I think its where I developed a liking towards irritating people anonymously. Since I worked after school doing that. My hours were from 5:30 to 9 PM - those are peak hours. Most calls during those hours are goign to interrupt dinner, favorite show, blah blah blah.

getting used to irrate people is easy

knowing their number goes back into the database for next months "product" to be called list - was funny too. I used to call the same person a couple times a year, for different things.

Pretty damn funny.

When I was doing the cam thing. The company was only using us as "content" - I did not even know ifriends existed.

- and let me say. Me and my girlfriend were never content. We hired friends to get on cam

It was not until after we went through with that ordeal did we start to come across the more "amateur cam" type things, and we were in total new ground. We had no one telling us anything, we literally went from two emails to setting up a cam room and putting out fliers for girls.. it was sudden, and i was naive.

Once they were sending us money, i didnt care what happened. we just kept our end of bargain up and rode it until it died.

Never were "competition" - we were basically just running an "early feed" if you will - just with a lot less of the head ache and bullshit of today. I was sending still images through ftp with an old performa mac 6400 (yes i still have this machine 180 mhz i think) using a program called fetch. and it wasnt even "streaming" cam at first. i was overwriting a jpg file over and over during the 3 hour nightly show

this was out of my apartment ya know. we were never in any competition with ifriends.

I wouldn't necessary call it inspiration to do what I do... I never considered myself a high-caliber designer. I do what I like, and I keep it simple. Very simple. And so far, people who like the same have continued to come to me.

The college course I thought was the most boring and unnecessary turned out to be the most useful piece of info I was ever taught.

Color Theory and Color in general. We spent weeks studying colors, making colors - endless hours of making one inch gradient squares ranging by hues and shades. Tiresome, but I think using that color info now and knowing how to use color is the most important part of web page design.

Inspiration? Ian MacKaye.

One night after seeing so many others pick up on the phrase I registered the domain, which I will not link out of respect for Lensman and GFY in regards to the popularity of these threads.

I was on icq with Labret at the time, and told him I was going to start a public "blog" allowing more than one user to post on the domain. cherrylula, joe sixpack, labret, quiet and me... Labret was going to host it.

Due to his world travels and not being around online, I bought a small hosting plan and decided to install phpbb board instead of a blog script and the rest is history.

In short, it's a webmaster board.

I didnt intend on never returning really, but I was doing really good with sales and there was no need to continue after i met the internet.

I never was going for a degree. I was just taking classes with no direction. I had no plans, just loved learning. Once I got online - theres no need for college.

Ive seen them do it first-hand and have no problem with being in a room full of people fucking. I also dont care who people fuck.

In regards to protected or unprotected sex, the famous AIM clinic is not far from here and this local area is heavily tested. However, as we have seen aids infections do occur and I would advise any female participating in porn to weigh the options and seek to only work protected.

We know though, that many have unprotected sex every day, but with tested partners. I personally would never trust a performer enough to go bareback no matter WHAT their PCR-DNA test, but talent is tlalent and the rent is due. DNA tests are like 75$ - ive seen girls complain about having to pay to have them done, so theres the attitude that leads to infections.

I dont care what people do. I have no opinion on the women in the industry, they do their thing, I do mine. I wouldnt marry a chick who did "Fill My Ass With Black Meat #92" so it doesnt matter to me what these women do.

I have no clue what to even think anymore about Amp. One minute he is on icq giving us (my girlfriend and I) his cell phone number - the next we are in flame wars on GFY. Personally, I think its all board shit and thats as deep as I take it. I think Amp had something personal towards the end, so what I was laughing off was pissing him off. Those who remember the night I passed his post count, and the flame that ensued, know what I mean.

Anyway, talked to him on the phone and we exchanged gfy shirts once due to size difference. Other than that If i were him id be enjoying that island more and less time online, which i think is what he is doing so good for him.

Juicy:

hehehe, i just laugh thinking about this guy. If he werent a webmaster and no one vouched for him, Id think he was an annoying fuck. But once you get rid of the facade Juicy is a hard working webmaster like the rest of us. I have posted my fair share of shit on this board, so let someone else do it now.

I dont consider these guys "competition" - i think thats why me and juicy get along and amp and i went sour. the designer/poster thing just weird.

Juicy is all good with me.
