Ive been wondering why I havent seen any press from NatNet on the Forum.

Curious as Oprano is hosted at NetNet while GFY isnt....

Im certain I would have pinned the thread ... after all Natnet has always been kind to me personally in the past and I consider several of the staff my friends.

Hell Id probably skinned the board without being asked...

Oh well.

Which logo is new?

The one that says GONZO, or it may not be new, but I have not seen it before:scratchin

That logo doesnt belong to me.

Those are quotes made by the man himself. See last line in the sig.

Hey Gonzo....

Wow, dude.....I totally apologize. I had no idea. Sorry if you take it as a slap in the face...I can promise you that was not my intent. I hope you know me better than to think that I would ever intentionally disrespect you. You have always been nothing but nice to me and you are a long time friend of mine and my company's. Please forgive me if I have disrespected you in ANY WAY.

The only boards that I, myself, am promoting the shows on are the ones that are sponsors of the event. Some of our friends are posting things to other boards but I have never really known which ones they were and which ones there were not posting to unless my board tracker went off.

Maybe I should have taken a more active approach to making sure that you were included...I sincerely apologize for that and hope you will forgive me.

Maybe I can put Kathi in touch with you and we can work out a Media Sponsorship for Oprano. Let me know if this is something that interests you!

P.S. Thanks to JFK for sending me a link to this thread and trying to keep me out of trouble! ;)

Happy belated Birthday, by the looks of the pics, you had a good one.

First pics I've seen of the new place, some hellacious digs you've got there. That pool should make the panties fall right off.

[gonzo]

Tony theres no way your in trouble. Just wanted to lend some support in repayment for your kindness over the years.

I dont feel disrepected. We are a friendly bunch on here with several of us attending. Just want to spread the Southern Hospitality.

Even though we are close to the date...we all wish you the best and want to lend any support we can.

Happy belated birthday as well. Include us on your press releases for sure.
Your news is important to us.
Im not looking to sell you anything...only to give a little payback thats long overdue.

Thanks, Tony. We really had a great time!

T found the Icy Hot Stuntaz!!!

Actually, HP, that was the DJ and his assistants and managers. Check him out at http://www.djroonieg.com. He is amazing to watch...he mixes audio AND video unlike any DJ you have ever seen. Many are adding it to their show now, but Roonie is the original!!

Happy belated Birthday, by the looks of the pics, you had a good one.

Thanks!! We had a great time at the party. What you also cant tell from this party is that we banned presents from the party and instead told people to come prepared to donate money to my favorite charity, Bert's Big Adventure! So, while everyone had a great time we also were able to raise almost $50,000 for a fantastic charity! Partying with a purpose, is what I like to call it!!

Whew!! Thank goodness!! I was really nervous that I had disrespected a good friend and a long time customer. I would love to have you guys involved in any way we can. I will make sure that Kathi touches base with you to get you on the PR list so that you can get all of the press releases.

Thanks for the birthday wishes!!! ;)

Heh, of course, i knew who it was. But that wont prevent me from making fun of geeky white boys trying to look cool. I'm a subject matter expert. ;)

HAHAHAHAHA......Mike AI is still hanging with porn dudes.....what happened with dude being a "mainstream" bidness man?Makes me laugh till I puke. Son, you ain't no Joe Kennedy.

So you are calling me a "porn dude"? What does that mean exactly? I really do not know you and apparently you don't know me so how can you call me a "porn dude"? Is it because I happen to provide hosting services to porn sites? If thats the case then you should call me a religious dude because I happen to provide hosting to over 400 churches and the worlds largest mega-ministry. So am I a "porn dude" or a "god dude"?

If you must know, Michael is a dear friend of mine and his MAINSTREAM clothing company was one of the sponsors of my party and also happened to make a SUBSTANTIAL donation to the charity that this party benefited.

But I am sure that if you want to attack him on a message board then he probably will not mind...and neither will I.

[gonzo]

Just checked out the seminars for Tonys Forum.
A departure from the norm. Im not sure how everyone else is going to take the speakers but Ill be there if nothing more than for the change.

Should be quite informative.

[TheEnforcer]

Nat Net has always been a top notch company and I'm sure the forum will be quite good as well. :okthumb:

Don't be mean! Don't call T "top notch", unless you intend to also say "stand up" and "a true bros". :)

Seriously though, T and all his gang at Nat Net are great people, and I am always glad to see them do well :)

Let me tell you about Tony Morgan.

Ive seen him thanklessly treat so many people he didnt know including msyelf like kings. Not expecting anything in return.

Now you understand why I hoped to help out with what little PR this board is capabile of creating by helping out.

Save the stand up and top notch talk for the rest.
Tony embodies the true meaning of Southern Hospitality.

While you have folks doing cruises and etc for the glory...you have Tony doing it because thats how he was raised and he enjoys doing it.

Kathi is one the most efficient and tireless Executive assistant I have met.

Bill lives and breathes that job.

Andrew is the quiet get shit done person.

Im proud to call them my friends.

[RawAlex]

...and I am proud to have been their bartender at many of their early parties and suites at past events... T knows how to put on a great party, that is for sure :)

[ali25extreme]

So when is the next party? hehe

Kathi has graciously offered to introduce me to anyone she can. “ T “ is at the top of my list.

[Hell Puppy]

T as a "porn dude". Ok, fair that he make money from porn.

But in the other thread we were talking about how many people come and go from this biz blowing thru money with no financial or business sense. Sweet T isn't one of those guys. In terms of running a business, he would be in my top 1% of guys ever to pass thru this industry.

Notice the speakers on the Atlanta Forum, i think he see's general business knowledge is very underserved in this industry. He's likely using some favors with some of his own contacts to help educate our collective dumb asses.

I dont testify or vouch for many, Natnet is one I've always vouched for. I've been around a while, I know the history. Get him to share it sometime. But short story is he took a business in shambles and turned it into arguably one of the most respected business entities in this industry.

Have you EVER heard any controversy or anything remotely sleazy about Natnet? I haven't, not even as a rumor. He surrounds himself with class. Every Natnet employee I've ever dealt with has been among the best at what they do. And they're loyal. Attracting, retaining and empowering good people is one of the secrets to building a successful business.

And sometime before I die, I'm gonna beat Sweet T to the punch and grab a dinner check before he does.

Pickin' up a dinner check around this bunch is no easy task. :)

[SweetT]

Aw shucks guys. You are all TOO kind. I am just a man trying to run a business the way my southern-raised father taught me....give people a good product, great service and a fair price and you will be successful.

As for picking up a check for dinner....I believe that things like the come around....I cant count the number of people that I call customers that started out as a simple dinner check. Do they use NatNet because we bought them dinner? No. Did they give us the chance to earn their business because we bought them dinner. I hope so! ;)

Now...all of you go to http://www.theatlantaforum.com and register now...meet more people with the same intellect and the same desire to grow their businesses and try to do some business together! If nothing else, the Seminars are the DO NOT MISS function. ;)

[softball]

Well, I have no idea about you T or your friends and I didn't
call you personally a porn dude. However, I do know that these pictures are posted on a board that is about "the business of porn" and JFK was there. The obvious assumption is that there was a lot of porn dudes there. Mike AI for years crowed about getting out of porn and try and be respectable on the money he made out of selling dirty pictures. He also would prattle on about extreme right wing shit that would get us all in hot water. But, hey, he "left porn" but his pictures still appear on porn boards shot by a guy who makes a living out of porn parties. Maybe I am wrong or I am overlooking the obvious. Personally, I think anyone who makes money out of porn, is in the porn business including the phone company and hotel chains. Nothing wrong with that, but just don't try and bury your past unless you want your kids to be president.

[DannyCox]

I've known Tony since he first started in this business, and I've always thought him to be a great guy. He's one of the few that I actually trust! I remember thinking he was crazy when he bought out NationalNet from the other guy (who's name I just don't remember), but he turned that thing around in no time, and became one of the more respected hosting companies out there.

Carol and I are actually thinking of doing the Atlanta Forum this year. It's been a few years since we've been to any get-together and it would be a nice break.

Tom Blanchard!

And Tom ranks as easily one of the top 5 melt downs the business has ever seen. Had some health related issues in his family and pretty much went crazy as hell....all in public on the boards for all to see.

[DannyCox]

That's it! Tom! I think the last time I ever saw him was in 1998 in Orlando at the IA2000 show. He always looked like he was about to have a panic attack. Really jumpy guy.

Last I remember was circa 2000-ish with him threatening to kill Honest Anthony in Vegas.
