Answer: I worked at the D.O.J. satellite as their webmaster. I established their in-house video editing department and began producing training videos. One day the Training Department Mgr asked me if I knew how to enhance video and handed me a vhs surveillance tape. I said lemme see what I can do. I "did my thing" to it and they were impressed. They asked me if I could put together a small little powerpoint presentation and would I be interested in making it into a class at an upcoming conference - of ocurse I said yes. So I made this PPT and prepared a small class for this show. The time came and they said here's your itinerary for the Symposium. I began to wonder what I'd gotten myself into. In 2002 I flew to Washington D.C. and delivered a course to Federal, State and Local law enforcement. There were FBI and Secret Service dudes there too I couldn't believe it. I was terrified but reasoned that they didn't know me and therefore assumed that I was an expert - so I walked out on stage (in front of 300 attendees) and was an expert on Surveillance Video Enhancement! LOL The symposium evals came back and folks voted my class in the top 3 classes there so the HTCIA (HiTech Crime Investigation Assoc.) asked me to prepare more classess and start doing these symposiums regularly. I made lots of friends at FBI, SS and all kinds of law enforcement - they all knew about my adult background and didnt care. My friends at the bureau even asked me to apply but THAT offer I had to decline. Even though they were cool with my adult bg that didn't mean I was comfortable with ANOTHER background investigation - fuck that (1st B.I. was for the service: TS Clearance)! Btw, those cops party just like WE do!

Great story! And not a bad thing to have on the resume.

9. Discuss arms dealing with the Guido in San Diego.

Answer: True. Around '93 in San Diego I was stationed at Coranado Island. Those of you who are familiar with Coranado prolly know the Hotel Del Coranado. Well they have a bar there and its a good one too. Well one night my friends and I went and hung out there. At some point I found myself sitting at a table alone. So this old guy (looked to be in his 50's) comes over and sits down. He's noticeably drunk and picks up a conversation he must've been having with someone else (I guess he got confused). So he starts telling me what he's in the market for regarding weapons. I laughed at first not taking him seriously - just another drunk fool - but I played along with him for kicks. I told him "what do you need? You know that base over there, I have access to it and can get you whatever you need man? Exocets, harpoons, stingers, etc. It's really no big deal - a piece of cake." He leaned over and stuffed something in my shirt pocket,"I like you man, you're my kinda guy." Anyhow we kept talking and through the course of the night I must've promised him half an army (all the while he kept stuffing shit in my pocket) and he told me his people would contact me soon. With that he got up and left. After he was gone we left that bar and on the taxi ride back to the base I decided to check my pocket.... It was full of hundred dollar bills (HOLY SHIT)!!!!

10. Talk about your job as production manager for Playboy.

Answer: As the Production Manager I oversee all aspects of production. Shooters send me talent - I give 'em the green light on a girl and tell them what to shoot her for. They shoot it and send it to me for review. I serve as the Executive Producer for all of our DVDs. When the DVDs are authored they're sent to me for review then legal review, replication and distribution. At our PB shoots I direct the videos we produce of the lovely ladies we found at the Casting Calls (hilarious video of me "directing" has already been posted in this thread). Lately my job entails A LOT of travel so you gotta maintain a flexible schedule. Now and then Lensman still calls on me to design stuff when Rilose gets slammed. And of course I put out any fires as required - wherever they are.

I've been working with Spannow for four months or so. He's a great guy, hard worker, although he looks a bit evil with his facial hair going on. I'm glad to be able to call him a friend.

And no, I've never showered with him before.

S P A N N O W · 07-09-2006, 01:08 PM

11. Did you work for sex or money on Dee's site?

Answer: Strictly money, and at that time ('96/'97), good money! More important than the money though were the contacts. She knew everybody in the biz or knew someone who knew someone. Through Dee I met The Edgewater West folks and became their webmaster as well as West Coast Productions and Vince Vouyer. She was truly a springboard for me into the industry. Funny thing was that I quietly worked for years from home and never ventured out at all. So I had no idea that there were even adult-oriented conventions (let alone message boards). In '97 I went to the CES show in Vegas for the first time with Dee and was blown away by the scale of the business. By then I was working for all those companies and many more and it was amazing to hang out with all of them in one place at the same time. That's when I realized this industry was huge! Nice thing is that I'm still cool with every client I've ever worked with and, conisdering the drama we see all the time, that's refreshing...

12. What exactly did you do for homegrown?

Answer: I started doing work for Homegrown in '98 I think. They have (or had) an office in San Diego and I walked in one day and said I want work. I met with Far-L and Moffit and we talked about it. I eventually provided the design for their Mons Veneris (sp) web site and worked on some banners and such. Far-L wanted the banners to have animation AND music in them and I dont know if flash existed back then or not but I sure didnt have it or know it. So I made all that shit in shockwave - it was crazy but fun as hell. I learned a lot about a lot from them - they were good to me and good people in my book. I moved to Nor-Cal the following year and lost touch with them completely until I discovered GFY in '04 and we bumped into each other in a thread - ironic.

13. What the fuck is High Technology Crime Investigation Association?

Answer: (taken from their web site) "The High Technology Crime Investigation Association (HTCIA) is designed to encourage, promote, aid and effect the voluntary interchange of data, information, experience, ideas and knowledge about methods, processes, and techniques relating to investigations and security in advanced technologies among its membership." In Engrish: it's a lot of badges and guns who party together at conferences and trade business ideas and information (sound familiar?).

(still working on #14)

15. Rumor has it that you showed up for your job interview with Lensman and announced that you were from the Department of Justice, causing employees to hide. Can you explain this?

Answer: TRUE (sort of). I was working for D.O.J. and browsing Craigslist. I came across one of Lensman's notorious job ads and was hooked - "that's my job!" were my exact words. I was stunned that they were located just 15 minutes from my house too - who would've thought?! I emailed him but was so anxious to seize the moment that (I won't say exactly how) but I got their office address, grabbed my portfolio, jumped in the car and hauled ass! I flew into the parking lot and someone happened to be coming out as I walked up so I walked in and this dude stopped me (I don't remember who it was exactly - maybe Toby) and asked where I worked and I told him D.O.J. He turned white as a ghost,"Wait here!" he said and split quick! Next thing I know these 2 big dudes came lumbering out and confronted me,"what do you want?! Why are you here?!" etc. After a few minutes of talking to them they realized it wasn't a raid (LOL) and told me if you're looking for work go to GoFuckYourself.com (I though I was being insulted ROTF!). I left, completely bummed. A year later my cell phone rang and it was Lensman (of course I didnt know it at the time). I just thought it was some random dude feeling me out for a position. So we talked for about an hour, he offered me a job over the phone and I started the following week. Happy ending!

S P A N N O W · 07-10-2006, 05:10 PM

16. Explain your obsession for trannies and french kissing them.

Answer: FALSE. The origins of this fallacy are good. We did a party at a night club a couple months back. Our whole crew was there. So Lens asked me to go forth and draw in girls and fill the stage, no problem. Then (we'll call him Bunni-1) grins,"Look, there's girls over there wearing bunny ears!" I replied,"Bunni-1, would you like me to go get them for you?" He snapped back enthusiastically,"YES!" So I brought 'em back,"here are your bunnys Bunni-1." One of these girls looked very much like a guy so Bunni-1, to deflect attention away from his error in judgement, began telling folks that I brought trannys etc... My lips have never touched another mans - can you say the same Bunni-1? Not that there's anything wrong with that...And there you have it.

I don't have anything against homosexuals but for some strange reason they seem to really like me...

Through Dee I met The Edgewater West folks and became their webmaster as well as West Coast Productions and Vince Vouyer. She was truly a springboard for me into the industry. Funny thing was that I quietly worked for years from home and never ventured out at all. So I had no idea that there were even adult-oriented conventions (let alone message boards). In '97 I went to the CES show in Vegas for the first time with Dee and was blown away by the scale of the business. By then I was working for all those companies and many more and it was amazing to hang out with all of them in one place at the same time. That's when I realized this industry was huge! Nice thing is that I'm still cool with every client I've ever worked with and, conisdering the drama we see all the time, that's refreshing... __________________ Ambush

Answer: I started doing work for Homegrown in '98 I think. They have (or had) an office in San Diego and I walked in one day and said I want work. I met with Far-L and Moffit and we talked about it. I eventually provided the design for their Mons Veneris (sp) web site and worked on some banners and such. Far-L wanted the banners to have animation AND music in them and I dont know if flash existed back then or not but I sure didnt have it or know it. So I made all that shit in shockwave - it was crazy but fun as hell. I learned a lot about a lot from them - they were good to me and good people in my book. I moved to Nor-Cal the following year and lost touch with them completely until I discovered GFY in '04 and we bumped into each other in a thread - ironic. __________________ Ambush Last edited by S P A N N O W; 07-10-2006 at 11:41 AM..

Answer: (taken from their web site) "The High Technology Crime Investigation Association (HTCIA) is designed to encourage, promote, aid and effect the voluntary interchange of data, information, experience, ideas and knowledge about methods, processes, and techniques relating to investigations and security in advanced technologies among its membership." In Engrish: it's a lot of badges and guns who party together at conferences and trade business ideas and information (sound familiar?). __________________ Ambush

Rumor has it that you showed up for your job interview with Lensman and announced that you were from the Department of Justice, causing employees to hide. Can you explain this? Answer: TRUE (sort of). I was working for D.O.J. and browsing Craigslist. I came across one of Lensman's notorious job ads and was hooked - "that's my job!" were my exact words. I was stunned that they were located just 15 minutes from my house too - who would've thought?! I emailed him but was so anxious to seize the moment that (I won't say exactly how) but I got their office address, grabbed my portfolio, jumped in the car and hauled ass! I flew into the parking lot and someone happened to be coming out as I walked up so I walked in and this dude stopped me (I don't remember who it was exactly - maybe Toby) and asked where I worked and I told him D.O.J. He turned white as a ghost,"Wait here!" he said and split quick! Next thing I know these 2 big dudes came lumbering out and confronted me,"what do you want?! Why are you here?!" etc. After a few minutes of talking to them they realized it wasn't a raid (LOL) and told me if you're looking for work go to GoFuckYourself.com (I though I was being insulted ROTF!). I left, completely bummed. A year later my cell phone rang and it was Lensman (of course I didnt know it at the time). I just thought it was some random dude feeling me out for a position. So we talked for about an hour, he offered me a job over the phone and I started the following week. Happy ending! __________________ Ambush Last edited by S P A N N O W; 07-10-2006 at 03:55 PM..

The origins of this fallacy are good. We did a party at a night club a couple months back. Our whole crew was there. So Lens asked me to go forth and draw in girls and fill the stage, no problem. Then (we'll call him Bunni-1) grins,"Look, there's girls over there wearing bunny ears!" I replied,"Bunni-1, would you like me to go get them for you?" He snapped back enthusiastically,"YES!" So I brought 'em back,"here are your bunnys Bunni-1." One of these girls looked very much like a guy so Bunni-1, to deflect attention away from his error in judgement, began telling folks that I brought trannys etc... My lips have never touched another mans - can you say the same Bunni-1? Not that there's anything wrong with that...And there you have it. I don't have anything against homosexuals but for some strange reason they seem to really like me... __________________ Ambush
