Great answers Robert, but I highlighted this because it's the one thing I think you've stated so far that I disagree with. I don't teach my children to be fearful of strangers, but they're taught to be WARY of them at the very least. Teaching your children to steer clear of those with strange behaviors, like myself, is easy. But I sure as hell don't want my children to find out too late that someone who behaved normally in public is strange behind closed doors.

The statement I believe said that - children are NOT to fear strangers, but only those that start showing strange behavior - to be wary as you said.

But this is only the first step in teaching your children. That was my only point. What happens behind closed doors no one can monitor - even my wife was assaulted by a family member in this manner. My brother was raped by a church leader when he was 12 - so it is hard to shield them from everyone since no one knows their true intensions.

My only hope is that by giving her confidence, even karate classes etc. and the ability to stand up for herself she may be able to survive any such attack. If something did happen, I can only hope she can tell us so that we can assist in the healing process unlike my wife and brother who were told to shut up and keep it hidden.

Pussy Cat 12-11-2007 03:30 PM

All I have to say is you got yourself a great candidate...way to go Robert :thumbsup

I remember when I first started in the industry...Robert was one of the first people I met...and you all know how it is to be a newbie...I remember the first conversation I had with him and how relieved I was when he said to me "if I can help at all...let me know" I knew from that point forward that I would be just fine. It was comforting to know if I needed help I had somewhere to go. Robert and I have continued to be friends since then and have even worked together recently.

Robert is not only friendly but also very helpful and reliable. Its been a pleasure knowing him. For those who know Robert I think you would all agree with me on this.

JBourne 12-11-2007 03:45 PM

Our boy Robert!!! From preacha to Legacy, he's all growns up. LONG LIVE THE LEGACY!!! Love these Ambush Interviews BTW.

5. Congratulations on the recent birth of your first child. Who your daughter's godfather?

Sadly the real godfather hasn?t been told yet. His name is Scott and for the entire birth and her first year he was basically locked up in the house with his wife of 20 years fighting cancer. She died a few weeks ago and he is now in grief counseling. I also knew her from high school when they were dating and was in their wedding party. I had hoped she could at least have seen her and shared in our joy.

Scott and I have been best friends since embryo?s ? can?t remember a day in my life that we weren?t friends nor have we ever fought. His last name is Mackenzie ? which is also the first name we chose for our daughter. When he is able to finally visit our home and see her for the first time ? then I will ask him to be the Godfather, but I didn?t want to ask over the phone.

Scott (Sleazy) is the crazy Uncle btw

6. You started your career at Python? You were their first marketing director? How did you get that gig?

I actually was part of a small online adult magazine called Hush before Python for a short time, but I had answered an ad in the newspaper for a marketing director for an online company – I do consider Python my first major gig in the industry though. From what I understood I was their first marketing director, actually they were just starting out themselves – before Aly (some of you remember her) even got into the industry. They basically hired me on the spot and the rest was history.

Awesome candidate for an Ambush, Sleazy :thumbsup :thumbsup

Robert has built himself a great reputation over the years and is a textbook example that hard work, dedication, smart marketing and REAL relationship building breed good things and ultimately success!

I was fortunate to be on the same Content Panel with him at Webmaster Access West a few weeks ago. He surely knows his stuff!

I look forward to reading and learning more about "The Legacy" :)

7. What is your wildest convention story?

I have had a few ? one that DonMike won?t let me forget, is when I forgot DonMike. There was some weed involved (supplied by my boss who handed it to me in a Burger King bag) ? actually the size of a softball ? and the weekend was lost. Though I do remember sitting in my room with the sales team laughing our asses off watching Jaws by putting words in the fishes mouth. I also apparently I did an interview with ronaldo (Ron Steward) and had the best sales of anyone on the team, but I still can?t remember a single day of Vegas.

Though I feel that isn?t what your getting at ? there was a Internext convention in Vegas when I was working with a gay company. A brief history will tell you that although I did sales with the company , they were having difficultly finding a writer so to help out I said I would do it much to their surprise. A straight man writing gay advice column's and erotic stories?

Well 3 years later I was still writing for them and actually the magazine had grown huge in the gay community and won a Cybersocket award! They had pulled me to the center of the bar (Gypsy's) and had a male stripper dancing all over me. What was more comical was the idea that in that room ? I was the only straight man who turned out helped win a gay award for the company that was totally gay owned and operated.

That to me meant more than any other compliment at the time because I have always prided myself in learning what webmasters and clients want. To cross over into sales/marketing to the gay community by having a knowledge and sensitivity to what their needs were ? to understand their culture and be accepted ? meant that I did my job right and my network grew even stronger.

Soon after that I became a moderator on the gay chat board of YNOT and held that with pride for several years until they closed it down and I carried on as mod in the general area ? many thought at that time I was gay but honestly I didn't care, I was actually glad that they thought that because it meant I was doing my job right and at the time I was able to help and work with both markets when I knew few others could. I spoke on seminar panels, talk shows - even interviewed a Gay Archbishop on YNOTRadio and also got to know the Godfathers of the gay market very well. It has made me a better man to have worked with that community by dropping my guard - ego and pride to just relax and open my horizon's to a community that had so much dynamics and lessons to teach me that as time went on. The community knew I was straight but were amazed that I had no judgments against them and was willing to listen. In the end it helped me become a better and stronger voice within the adult industry.

1. Is it true that you are the one person responsible for introducing Lawrence Connor to the adult industry? Explain how this happened, from the conception of the idea to selecting Lawrence to how it went down.

Introduced? No ? he was annoying and harassing people long before I got here begging for a chance to get into the industry as a model. When sexxxycontent hired me on to help bring their company to the next level hoping that within a few months by Vegas Internext that their companies name would be on everyone?s lips my name came up as a solution when they searched around.

First off I want to say that in any company I have worked with it has never been a ?me? situation. I know the concepts/resources of success and how to get a company there, but without the agreement and team atmosphere then the comany's success simply won?t work. The owners at the time trusted me to create this event and gave me the resources and their time to make it happen. My network is my strength ? as I have said many times ? I don?t know everything about this industry ? but I sure as hell do know those that do know the answers. So here is how it happened.

I had an epiphany that if we created a webcam show with the hottest porn star around matched with a wanna-be pornstar who is prepared to risk everything for his shot ? someone that everyone hated and wanted to see fail ? then you have married content with passion.

The stakes were if he failed that Lanni would fuck him in the ass symbolizing every adult film stars feelings of surfers who feel they can do a better job than them. What Lawrence failed to realize was that it was to the company?s best interest that he succeeded. With that he would have had the chance to have a website and more opportunities to carry the idea along ? but we all know the history - that the pressure was too much as he was warned by many adult film stars who jumped in during radio interviews to give him advice

To this date he still feels that I ?set him up? or that I somehow had control over his weenie?s performance when faced with a beauty such as Lanni. Well - no more than any male performer who has to retain an erection while 10 stage hands get the lighting right, the model is on her cell phone screaming at her boyfriend and the director is telling him to keep his leg up so he can get his camera in tight.

I should have heeded Vid Vicious?s (my brother from a different mother) warning when he was doing the production that LC was unstable and he continually requested that LC think about what he is doing and hoped he would back out. In the end (no pun) Lawrence stayed strong to his conviction that he could do it and marched on into industry history.

Personally my goal was to promote the company and not myself in all this. They needed their name to make sales not me. No one wants their name associated with LC and I have tried to keep it that way. I already had a strong reputation long before LC came along and will long after he is gone. I smile as many GFY?ers and industry people still talk about it and yet many don?t realize who it was behind the scenes ? as it should be.

Those of you with different opinions don't realize that whether he did this show or not he still would have been around. In one month alone I had over 12 different ICQ numbered requests by LC and the list goes on. He even called webmaster paradise's office and spoke to the owner hoping to make my life hell. The list goes on but I think you see my point.

Truth is - I have been in this industry for 12 years - LC showed up in the latter of that - the past 4 years would have been a great deal more enjoyable without him continually bothering me and my friends. My hope is that I never heard of him again - my advice is to simply not speak of him or even respond to his emails or ICQ alerts.

I like to refer to this time in our carreers as the weekend we unleashed a retarded devil on the adult online webmaster community ...LOL

there is alot more to this story, but certain things wil remain un said .. the weekend proved to be a winning combo for both Sexxycontent and lovesexxy ... Lanny and myslef had a grea weekend filled with lots of fun and laughter ...

Great Ambush sleazy, Legacy is a good person and I consider him to be a close friend ..our inducstry can only benifit from more peole like him ..

congrats Robert!

8. Are you aware that some industry veterans were surprised when you announced you were getting married because they thought you were gay? Is your marriage a front?

Definitely there was industry veterans who would contact me surprised - even Bob Rice hit me up on ICQ wondering if it was all a fake ? we had a long discussion as to what gay truly meant and what is happening between SheDevil and myself. My feelings were that just fucking a man doesn?t mean your gay. Being in the gay industry I noticed many guys who were hitting on women as much as men. That is just horny ? prepared to fuck anything that moves and gets you off.

Being truly gay means that sex isn?t always an option ? it is more than physical. I have seen gay couples who have lived together for over 20 years, and truly love each other as a straight couple. One where the partner died of AID?s as the other one watched, holding his hand as he passed on. It wasn?t about sex at all ? it was about commitment to another soul ? a human being. The physical aspect was not the primary reason they were together.

So no - my marriage is not a front at all. I was married before to a stripper who left me for a DJ. I certainly didn?t want to get into another relationship much less marriage. When SheDevil came along she was totally into women ? never figuring she would love a man at all. Yet in saying that, it was our souls that connected in a strong way. I totally felt at peace with the idea of living my life with her, as she did with me. In some cosmic way it worked, and we just knew.

When my dad asked me, ?why would you ever marry again?? I responded with, ?Because dad, I can tell her to shut the fuck up and she can do the same to me!!? He smiled and said, ?Marry her?. He knew that what I was saying is that we can truly be ourselves together, for all our good points and lousy ones. Few marriages can boast that each partner is secure in the relationship that they have no secrets from each other. That they speak their mind and resolve the issue with love and refuse to consider separation as on option. I will remember always the senior citizen I asked who was married for over 50 years, ?During all the time, did you once think of divorcing your husband?? She looked back at me, smiled and said, ?Divorce? Never. Murder YES ? but Divorce never?. That?s an act of the will ? commitment to make it work.

I can go into a long version as to what love is ? but in short - it is not a feeling but an act of the will.

What a great answer. I have to admit, I thought you were gay. I met you at a dinner for members of one of the gay boards, and at the time I was not used to your sarcastic wit, so you made a comment about a guy being hot or something like that and I said, "I thought you were straight" and you replied, "what would make you think I'm straight". LOL! Evil man.

I'm going backwards here. This is an excellent point. I work for a company that often features straight guys having sex with other straight or gay men. Sex is an activity and an activity that feels good, but that's not what makes a person gay or straight. Your sexual orientation is all about who you find attractive, who gets you hot. You can have sex with every woman you meet and never touch a guy because you want to be straight, but you know if you are honestly and deeply attracted to men or women. The same way you can be a straight man who enjoys an occasional blowjob from a buddy, just for the fact that it feels good. That doesn't make you gay. It goes so much further than sex.
