Thanks Mike.

Thanks for the interview Sleazy.
And thanks to everyone who read it and posted in it. I'll contiune to answer any questions anyone has but sleazy is out of questions.:thumbsup

12 clicks v.2 isnt such a bad guy :)

cheers bro

duke

I can't find it :(

nice, again you let me down. haha

Yup and when I have my first baby I will have it's poo bronzed up and sell it on Ebay :1orglaugh

OK Big Guy here's a question. Being so muscular and tall what sports did you or do you still practice ?

thank god for cake...


i can see 12clicks making the short list of most admired/respected people in the industry, one other person that jumps to mind would be RB. There are many successful people in this industry, but how many of those would somebody actually switch places with (rather than just have their business/cash)...imho

i put a lot of weight into knowledge of history, politics, cultures, wine, music, food, the arts, having charisma/game, athletics/exercise, etc?the balance of many important things

I think its ok...just been hanging out
fun to reminisce some of the "old days"

hope you're doing well....
[i know you are]

boy, this thread just turned down queerstreet.:winkwink:
I was a young phenom pitcher in little league but gave it up for football (god knows why)
I played softball for about the last 20 years in the top league in the state. I can still hang with the young guys because I'm a home run guy. They don't care if I'm old, fat, and slow as long as I hit.:winkwink:
I played golf for years and was a member of a local club but I was really too busy to play enough so I gave it up for now. I used to do a lot of fishing and bow hunting as well but even set a lot of that aside. I just don't have the time for everything I'd like to do.

Of the ones that I have read, this has been my favorite AI.

I look forward to your new ventures in adult. :)

hahaha, stop! you're making me blush. I'm not all that and people will laugh at you for saying it. :winkwink:

but thanks.

let them laugh, and let them eat (that) cake

Excellent thread and great answers. Exactly what I expected, this thread does indeed deliver.

Ok Ron, I'll throw a question out to keep this going.

What, besides the upcoming adult program, does your company currently do and what is/are the URL(s) if applicable?

Great interview!

I don't know you personally (which will hopefully change) but I'm glad I took the time to read this thread, it's been both entertaining and enlightening. You definitely seem like a 'right on' kinda guy! :thumbsup

Good luck with the new program! :pimp

Whenever I know Ron is going to be attending a show, it makes the show experience that much better.

Thank so much Ron for the great read and entertaining us at your expense. :winkwink: Your ambush page will be up soon. I look forward to meeting you in LA.

I have to say that for someone I have never met I may not need to. This interview has restored my faith and that people are not really as nasty as they may seem to be, I learned alot about you and see how your greatly respected you are and I hope to one day bask in your glory....

Great Interview...thanks :winkwink:

well, the mainstream stuff is our banner program and our popup program. Thats really all we're doing online besides some domain parking.
I'd really like to sell that stuff off and focus solely on adult.
we'll see what happens ;)

Thanks Ruth. I'm sure we'll be meeting soon enough.:winkwink:

God damn man I miss you !

I love the Mike Fold !

One of the nicest guys ever in this biz.

All right. If you remember precisely where I was sitting, I guess I'll let ya slide on this one :thumbsup You do have excellent taste in food.

'cause I hand out those fancy little chocolates.

.... tied with a bow of mystery in a box of chocolates.

any time Lulu, it was fun.

Hell, I've even got banned guys sneaking in to read it.:winkwink:

Okay, I've been roasting Ron throughout the thread with the chops and comments, but it's time for a question of my own.

This question is in several parts. :D


QUESTION: Have you ever been to a show or event outside of the USA and Canada? IE: one of the european ones, or down in Mexico, the Caribbean etc.
If so... describe one of your favorite highlights/incidents (name names).
If not... why not?

Last part of the question: In keeping with the whole "being out of the country" theme of the question, what are your thoughts on "going offshore", as in moving one's business (and possibly one's life) in whole or in part to foreign servers and locales, and not just for the typical "run and hide from the US government" reason? Would you or have you ever considered expanding your operation into foriegn markets?

Yeow!

this is getting to be a down right embarrassment of riches.:winkwink:

old school talk is ALWAYS the best talk....

Ron..have you ever spammed or thought of spamming to make some extra change?

way back before ti was considered politically incorrect??

What the hell, I'll give it another shot. What % of the company do you own? Given the success of the company, even 10% would be substantial.

Congratulations, you just passed 12k posts! :)

Woohooo do we get to cuddle in LA? :Graucho

Does Tommy Bahama come in big sizes aswell as tall?

Hey Mike - you know I miss you. Hope to see you come around again. Time to dance again.... 10th Anniversary time:-)

Damn, I was totally oblivious to that cigarette story - what a great first impression:-( :helpme Hope he wasn't a non smoker and I was killing him>

Oh shit. I didn't know there was more photos!!!

I would suggest that maybe it looks more awkward in stills than it might in video... but we all know the truth so what's the point.

:1orglaugh

Brad

No, I've not gone to any shows outside the US and Canada. As I said, we're not big on traveling to too many shows a year and we always picked the fun ones close to home.
As far as offshore goes, if I were younger and didn't haver the deep roots that I have where I am, I'd definitely consider moving someplace nice and starting there. I could think of an island or two that I'd live to ive on.:winkwink:

nope, I've never had to stoop as low as pimpdog to make a buck.
of course, if I had, I wouldn't then stab the spammers in the back by "discovering" their actions *after* they sent the joins.:1orglaugh

multiples of 10%, there's only two of us.

And I didn't even notice! :upsidedow

:1orglaugh

Thanks for the reply!

The reason I asked is because that I notice that those who have been incredibly successful in this business have usually been between the age of 25 - 35.

There seems to be an interesting correlation between that age range and success in this business :)

Just read the entire interview, nicely done

no, I already made plans with jact.:winkwink:
