I miss DannyM.... it is ashame he retired. I ended up buying his whole operation from him.

He was a good guy, and very funny.... he made some nice money, but I think his woman made him get out of the biz.

hahaha I've done my share of that too. My favorite was at about 5:30am at the NatNet suite, in Montreal 99...

There was one guy left sitting by himself trying to drink a beer. He was so shitfaced he was having a tough time getting the bottle to find his mouth. hahaha So I go over to the guy and tell him he has a phone call. I have him follow me to the "phone," I open the door and shove him out into the hall...

I started Porntrack.com together with sUdden a little bit before sextracker started their counter. Thats all I really did back then.

After a lot of stuff that happened I kinda disappeared from the scene for a few years and am just starting to come back

And yes, it was DEFINATELY different times back then

HAHA that was a funny night....

This was WAY before Tony became Sweet T. Sweet T would not have left his cell phone off, and miss the calls from the girl of scores!!!

Our backup plan was not to good either.

Do not want to be stuck in Secaucus NJ at night with nothing to do!

Billy what did you ever do with all those sex toys you and King Mario bought??

Unfortunately, the guy in question was wearing a "WRP Staff" shirt!

...and he had nothing to do with us at all!

He's the guy who got thrown out the front door of Tony's suite, then got hotel security to let him into Tony's bedroom door, just by just telling them that was his room!

That guy had nothing to do with the 'net at all. He got the shirt from a friend who worked event security for us in the past.

Oh my God Danny, you remember? I must say that was pretty funny. We kicked that guy out about three or four times. I remember someone telling me he wasn't a part of the company who's shirt he was wearing, but I didn't realize it was yours! At the time I could care less, I just wanted him out of there. haha

That was classic. I thought I was the only one who remembered that guy.

I could never forget that! That guy was a great source of embarrassment for me. Running around like a drunk asshole, and telling everyone he worked for Carol Cox.

People were giving me shit the next day!

No worries Danny, there's nothing you could have done... I guess the only thing you can do is laugh at him like the rest of us. Your reputation has always been sterling, and no drunken idiot in a WRP shirt can change that.

WOW!!!

What is this??? Shady Pines Nursing Home for Adult Webmasters??? Move over, Danny, I'm moving in!!!


I can't believe that you guys are talking about Secaucus and nobody has mentioned DJ-JD and his "wardrobe"......Michael, look in that same folder of pictures with Robin Leach and you will find the one of you and DJ-JD. LOL!!

If there is one thing I remember about that trip more than anything was Michael calling me on the phone and yelling ***RUN*** !!!

Also, you should all know that it was that trip that I learned the importance of double-checking my cell phone to be sure that it is in the "on" position....nothing more frustrating than a voicemail from last night that sounds like this.... "Hey Tony, this is Stephanie....we met last night at Scores....me and my friends wanted to hook up with you guys tonight and party...call me back!!!"

Oh well....live and learn!!!

--T

Edit: Guess if I am going to post on his board I should spell Michaels name right, huh??

Playa haters is fine... but if you have to change it, maybe the Button Ball

Button: a "made" member of the Mafia; soldier, wiseguy, goodfella, Man of Honor.

or the Borgata Ball ;-))

Fantastic! I knew I'd be compensated for having seen the famous red speedo live and in person

Seriously though, good times and good memories! First time I met Serge, John IP, and a lotta folks was at the Orlando party.

I remember another MikeAI pool party where I don't think anyone got in the pool. Remember it was a very long pool with food tables at each end. Was that New Orleans?

That was the indoor pool! That was a neat party - lots of good cajun food.

For all of you wondering what Fabian's early beginings in the business are you can read this thread and see him posting as "Nathan".

First the scammy porntracker and then along to NATS and now hes self anointed king of all porn from managing a hedge fund?

And I'm certain all of you recognize Sudden's name who is wanted by the Feds. Hows it going there popeye?
