JFK, I Fuckin' Love you, Man! (homage & pix)
 

Dear Julius,

A year ago this week I attended my first Adult show -- :)

I've been looking back over the last 12 months, at the pictures you've taken, and I realize what an amazing service you provide to all of us who call this insane and infectious industry ours.

I've met great people and made dear friends, but among them none are so distinguished for their warmth, kindness and generosity as you.

Your omnipresent camera, and the man who stands behind it, remind us -- every time you point and shoot our way -- that life is good, that tomorrow is another day, and that we take ourselves too seriously only at our peril.

Thank you SO much for doing what you do, and for being a part of my life -- my very memory -- for the last year -- :thumbsup


Here are some shots of you, from the shows we've attended together. This is what you look like when the camera leaves your eye...

Thanks, brother!

This scares me :helpme

Jack , I dont know what to say, but Thank you, THANK YOU very much ! :thumbsup Its Webmasters like you who make it all worthwhile, :thumbsup :thumbsup

GOD............ now about that double chin or is it triple :Oh crap

Love to see such deserving threads like these :thumbsup
Go JFK!

yes JFK is a very nice guy and one hell of a photographer

Well that solves the Chio mystery.

huh?! :helpme

Its because of JFK that I no longer bring my own camera. Thanks for a great compilation of pics from the industry events, much appreciated.

a sight to behold isnt it :1orglaugh

~~shudder~~

jfk is the man

You are very welcome!

And, as far as your chins are concerned, they're beautiful, Julius -- the more the merrier -- literally -- LOL.


Now... is there anything, we (as an industry, as your friends) can do to further encourage these exhibitionist tendencies you've been experiencing lately -- ? -- :) -- :1orglaugh -- :thumbsup

He looks like Santa when he was young.

So well said


That goes ditto For me .. But then again you already knew that Jules ;)

you kick ass man

Merci.


2hp

Great bump :thumbsup

great stuff and a very poignant thread for a wonderful photographer and man :thumbsup

It's so true.

I was watching him at the LSA's in Budapest and to see him work a room is something else.

It's rare to find someone who's just so very open, no bullshit, no fake smiles... just a guy who truly seems to love what he does and welcomes everyone.

We can all learn a lot from him.


PS I for one would love to know the story behind JFK/Furbar. I think it would make very interesting reading if someone sat down with him to do a thorough piece on how he managed to turn a hobby into a successful business.

thanks again guys, I was wondering who bumped this thread ???:1orglaugh

Thanks for that.

ok .. dont know what to say.. some pics scared me :(

if this is you - you need to make some sport :)

these pics are looking not nice! :) :) :)

nice pics jack...jfk does a wicked job...i dont even think to bring a camera anymore

You know WG - that's exactly why my camera, although it's with me, it stays in the room. Not only is Jules at EVERY, I mean EVERY event - he and Sandie do a great job of updating fast. Most mornings after, you already have a sneek peek - whereas, some 2-3 months later, I still didn't unload the pics from the card.

Not only a great service but HUGE exposure for your 'persona', company, brand and program.

Thanks Jules & thanks Sandie! :thumbsup :thumbsup

Sigh. Makes me regret NOT coming to your room that night in Phoenix. :winkwink:

Looks like we have a bad dog pose in there.

yeah, I agree, but I'm sure you are slim and trim enough for the both of us :1orglaugh

I agree totally with 2hp. Thanks for all you do JFK (and thanks for getting me in more pics last show. :winkwink: ) :thumbsup

So TRUE ...

That's why Julius was the very first to enter the Best Adult Awards' Hall Of Fame :thumbsup

We do Love you Buddy..

Patty send you a kissie BTW :winkwink:

I concur 100% my brother Jack.

I have been saying for an age that Julius's and FUBAR's real value will not become understood for generations, when we have a pictorial history of everything we did !!!

Love you and your work JFK !!!

:thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup

Among a few other tips, JFK taught me how to use the seat rests on the flight home from Budapest (I got put up to Business class - lucky me, esp. for a 9-hour flight!).

he is a very cool guy

Keep up the good work Sir! :thumbsup

i can't say it enough - JFK was the one who told me to attend the Miami show in 2004 - and since then our business only went up. so - thanks again! :thumbsup

well it was a nice flight, might as well relax in style:winkwink:
