33. Did you ever fear for your life in the Houdini Seance room in the Magic Castle?

Man, I really don't understand why people are always picking on Cory. He's a good guy! Don't hold that midget army thing against him. That shit was FUNNY! And look, he can't spell because he's dyslexic. And, he's legally blind in the middle part of his left eye, which is why it always looks like he's looking around you. So really, I think he does a pretty good job. Add to that, Cory was on (prescription) medication and drinking mojito's during our soirée so anything he said should be taken with a grain of salt. Haha... but seriously, Cory and I (WEG and EPOCH) threw a great party in Phoenix called the Saguaro Soirée, and that was probably one of the best parties I've ever been a part of. It was tons of fun and working with Cory and WEG couldn't have been any better. People still talk about that night. |

Man, how could I get into the whole fear aspect of it when you were busting up like that? Seriously, I know it was dark and we were all holding hands but you trying to hold back from laughing out of your chair was killing me! Haha! That night was fun, if not completely off the wall. It was an interesting mix of people. And seeing you in a tie? Priceless. |

Great interview so far, looking forward to reading it all! :thumbsup |

Umm.... I think I know what you thought you meant. :winkwink: Epoch, est 1996, went through a period of branding that we (at one time thought) might use in mainstream. During that time we marketed a brand called Paycom, which ended up being a part of our adult processing anyway. The idea of working in main stream has changed and we are totally focused on our core competency which is processing transactions for the adult entertainment industry. Because we had two names, our branding efforts were getting confusing so we discontinued use of the Paycom brand in favor of our original (and always) Epoch brand. Once we gained control of the domain Epoch.com this was an easy transition. |
Go Rand!! :thumbsup

Great answers! I am lucky to be working on the team with Rand!

50 excuses to lick industry cock

Basically it's a tape that shows the Church Lady, Jack Nicholson, and Johnny Carson in an orgy of adult webmasters on the red carpet at the Saguaro Soiree. There are parts of the tape with Poppy doing what Poppy does best, Kimmy Kim in a brief cameo, Amber's cleavage, Eric and Sunny Leone gettin' crazy, Lori Z as you've NEVER seen her before, Cory big pimpin', and a whole host of other industry celeb's doing things that would not be safe for prime time without a lot of blur effects. The tape has been locked up in a safe for some future time when it may be of use, or, the source of extreme entertainment or blackmail. I'm working on a deal with KB for it to be stolen from the safe and leaked to the main stream media. I already have the domain "AdultWebmastersGoneWild.com" parked and ready. (j/k - it's available if you want it) |

No... Cory accidentally wandered into our server room while trying to find the restroom. But security wasn't buying his story after he spent more than 30 seconds in there. Now when he comes to visit he has to wear an ankle bracelet GPS that lets us track where he is at all times. Our server rooms have bio-metric locks and electro-static forcefields so if the facial recognition cameras don't identify you as an approved technician you get a sizable jolt if you touch anything, which, Cory discovered last time he was here. :winkwink: |

This is a very topical question given recent events. The most difficult things to combat are those things we don't have control of, or may not be aware of until someone discovers the issue and points it out, as with what happened with a particular marketing company recently. Epoch is more than a payment gateway, we are an information database and risk management service organization. Once a transaction makes it to our servers and we can store, track and monitor activity, we are in control and able to manage the situation. It's when something or someone hijacks the process before we gain control over the transaction that is an interesting dilemma. Never has it been more important to know who you are doing business with. There are ways to combat such problems but for obvious reasons I won't go into that here. It amazes me how clever some people can be. If we could only bring the unscrupulous away from the dark side of the force it would be amazing to see what they could do. |

It varies. I go when there's someone I like performing or someone I just want to check out. I'm lucky to be in LA where I get a lot of choices. I probably hit between 15 and 20 concerts/performances a year. The first concert I ever went to was Elvis Presely. I was seven. It was 5 months before he died. I still remember the show and how good it was. Really. That guy was something else, even with the extra poundage. I'm supposed to go see "Justice" tonight at the Ford theater, but I'm a little under the weather with a cold and I'm not going to go. The last show I saw was Underworld at the Hollywood Bowl. One of my favorite bands. The best show I've seen all year was Prince, at 3121 in Vegas. What a great venue for someone like him. He's a really amazing performer live and I was astounded at how good he was. I'm going to see Crystal Method at a private party this weekend. I already have tickets for an upcoming show of The Cure and a group called Ween (if you don't know Ween you should seriously check them out. They are awesome) I saw Daft Punk in July, oh helllllllll yeah! Man. So good. -- I saw Roger Waters a few weeks back. I'm likin' the more intimate shows these days. Going to a mega-arena to see the Stones or Madonna just isn't cuttin' it anymore. |
great interview so far from my counterpart :))))

That's her & I here on the Gulf Coast this past weekend for a festival I produce called Bayfest. Small world. |

I've done a fair amount of charity work over the years. Normally, volunteering my services as a photographer. I've raised money for St. Judes Children Research Center, APLA, the Tsunami relief efforts in Indonesia, and most recently the Venice Family Clinic. I'm currently involved in a project which I founded called One Grass Root. Although it is not a charity, this latest project is an effort to get people to talk about issues that Americans care about in this coming election year. We have produced a film short that will be available soon on YouTube and a website which will allow people to sound off on these issues. The film is simply a diverse group of people asking questions. Such as... "Should there be a tax incentive for volunteer work?", and, "Should we add an option of none-of-the-above to our election ballots". The film even raises questions about abortion, stem cell research, and legalizing marijuana - all in about two minutes. I'll post more about the One Grass Root project when it's ready for public view. We're pretty close to getting it out. Hope you guys will look at it and pass it along to all your friends. We're hoping to get enough viewers that main-stream media will give us some coverage. Oh, and please buy a T-shirt from our website when it's up. :winkwink: |
