Congratulations to FUBAR
 

This is a copy of the introduction I wrote for JFK's new "FUBAR Times" Magazine, which he is launching this week at Internext. Taylor Little and Jordan Capri are there now in FUBAR's booth, #301, signing their centerfold in the premiere issue. Check it out!
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I am honored to have been asked to contribute to the premiere issue of The FUBAR Times. Anyone who has attended a tradeshow or webmaster gathering over the last several years has seen the always smiling JFK, the man behind the camera; the man who has traveled around the world and back to share and photograph our adventures. This is the guy that attends EVERY party, EVERY gathering, EVERY event, with an all-access pass and a camera in hand. Not just to have fun himself, but also to document the moment, the energy, the vibe, and to capture all of us being, well, US! Webmaster events are always packed with great people, fun activities, and amazing experiences that turn us all into friends, and no one has captured it all better than Julius Kedvessy, aka JFK from FubarWebmastersAdventures.com. His photos tell a thousand different stories, but together they tell us about him: Determined. Fun-loving. Honest. Caring. Generous.

I met JFK in fall of 2002 at Cybernet in Las Vegas. While we sat together at breakfast, I bluntly asked him the same question that many others have asked: ?Who are you and why the hell do you keep taking my picture?? After he explained his motives, I couldn?t wait to sponsor his work. If you want to put a name or a product in front of every person that attends a tradeshow, what better way is there than to show them pictures of themselves having the time of their lives? His idea was pure genius!

Who hasn?t visited the FUBAR website to relive the fun, to remember the moment, or just to prove to our friends back home that, yes, there was indeed some crazy shit going on that day and I WAS THERE!

JFK and FUBAR have since become a welcome and familiar part of every gathering, big and small alike. Personally, it just doesn?t FEEL like a real convention until we see JFK and his camera. I?ve been amazed to see pictures from multiple parties, often miles apart, during the SAME night. JFK frequently sacrifices his own fun to more thoroughly document everyone else?s!

I?m proud to be a FUBAR sponsor and to have been a small part of what FUBAR has become. I will look forward to every new issue of The FUBAR Times. Congratulations on your new magazine Julius, you truly deserve all the success in the world!

Sincerely,

Steve Lightspeed

I've known JFK for many years now and it's great to see him doing so well. Congrats buddy:)

congrats! :thumbsup

JFK is the Photo man :thumbsup

I can't wait to get a copy of the magazine and check it out!

It ABSOLUTELY isn't a convention without JFK. Think about how many times people go back to old, old pictures..

And of course, if you've ever had a chance to sit down with him outside the "parties" and really talk to him, you'll find he's a really super nice guy..

Hats off to you JFK - you absolutely deserve all your success.. !

Huge Congrats to Fubar......

Saw JFK all yesterday... Man he's come a long ways.... Very very proud of em.

Was in Awe with all he has accomplished over the years.

Always Family.

Congrats JFK and thanks for the calender :thumbsup

I can remember back in the day when you took a photo, dropped it off at the drug store, and had to come back in a week to see your photos.

The love between Lightspeed and Fubar is indeed strong :thumbsup

Bugbee, THANK YOU.........You Da Man :thumbsup

CONGRATS Julius! I have to tell you the new mag is a most enjoyable read and, if there is anything I can ever do to help you, do let me know. The absynthe article (aside from the LightSpeed Feature) was my favorite - especially bc i tried absynthe for my first time a week or so ago! Looking forward to seeing more! xo

So sad...

Not even one mention of another guy that Helps Fubar out to a large degree from what I understand.

Baddog. Remember him?

Its stuff like this sort of "Overlooking" that I see every day in the biz that kinda really bugs me out.

Let me tell you something, first of all you really dont know how things work @ FUBAR, secondly...............Baddog is REAllY APPRECIATED for what he does.......... and thirdly, if you want to start shit, go somewhere else :2 cents:

Well sheesh, don't get yer panties in a bunch.
Wasnt yer fault that BadDog wasnt mentioned one bit since the thread started.

I thought it proper for myself to recognise em for what he done with FUBAR.
Wasnt meant to be offensive. Just sad people do not recognise.

He always been on the West Coast Events shooting the pics from what I can recall.

Anyways...

Good luck.

Good luck on Fubar Times JFK, and congrats steve on the 2 lightspeed girls on the centerfold :thumbsup

yea i know what ya mean by overlooking.

its really sad especially when a person accuses others of it when theyre guilty of it themselves, read so much of it on the boards its laughable. :1orglaugh

Alien, while I appreciate the concern, I am not really overlooked, and I am just a hack when compared to the great job Julius does. . . . besides, I am rewarded handsomely by all the hot chicks that want to get their picture up on FUBAR. Without him I would be just another lonely guy.

Oh, and congrats on the rag, Jules. I can't wait until I receive my autographed copy, as I have not had an opportunity to thoroughly peruse it yet. But it looked great from what I saw.

Great! Congrats to FUBAR then! :thumbsup

I already know Baddog (we shook hands once at Internext)...

After meeting JFK I was blown away (I sat in a seat he was previously sitting in and it was still warm)...

Nothing but good stuff for both!

Very nice article, and congratulations to JFK. :thumbsup

jfk rules,i like his business philosophy :thumbsup
