I am a Dick! I act like a dick or an ass because it weeds out all of the bullshit. I hate fake people or people with an angle. (You know, people pretending to be people they are something they're not.)
FUCK!! If you are going to play Mr. Pretender, be something cool like a firefighter! You people know who you are! "DO NOT BRING THAT FAKE ASS SHIT AROUND ME I WILL RUIN YOUR DAY!!!"
I'M REAL!!! I am 100% real. You get what you see. If you can deal with my rough weeding out process we will have lots of fun. REALLY!!! I built a laser company that specializes Running High Powered Laser Systems. My company runs shows all over Hollywood. LightSpeedLasers specializes in music videos, movies, TV shows and Major Night Club shows.
I also built an adult content production company. Specializing in In adult video content and adult photography content for websites and DVD video companies. I get paid very well for what I do. SMUTPEDDLERPRODUCTIONS.COM
Why? Why am I the way I am?
People always wonder why I am the way that I am. They wonder how I can be so good to my friends but a complete dick to others.-“Why is that?” they wonder. I’ve never felt the need to explain myself to people. My friends know I am very generous and caring and that I would give you the shirt off of your back. My acquaintances know that I’m friendly but arrogant and capable of being a dick and most people know me as an just an arrogant dick! I’m really fine with all of those opinions. I live my life for me, and nobody else! I am a straight up person. I won’t ever lie, steal or cheat to take advantage of others. My opinionated personality usually sparks negative opinions. I really have a talent for spotting people for who they REALLY are and I usually call them out on it every time! People really never want to hear the truth about themselves. It usually happens when people mistake my kindness for weakness. VERY BAD MISTAKE!
Life and its experiences make you who you are. If you hate homosexuals, blacks, whites, Japanese, Asians, Koreans, Indians, Arabs, etc. you were not born that way and nobody is. Ignorance, lack of education, bad parenting and bad life experiences breed hate. I remember as a kid having friends of every race. My mom’s best friend was gay and it I knew wasn’t something I could “catch” and he was the coolest guy. He would tutor me in math and other subjects. How could you hate that? That was one of the few male figures I had in my life. To hate him because he was gay is a lame excuse for hate. All I knew at that age is that this guy cared about my well-being and wanted to help me with my troubled subjects. Being a kid was great, I had no reason to hate or knowledge on why I should hate.
More about me? Well, I have double bachelors from Long Beach State and Cal State Dominguez and minored in photography. After college I got into the work force and I thought I was the shit! Turns out I learned the hard way that two bachelors’ degrees didn’t mean shit. Don’t get me wrong, school is good and I recommend it to everybody. But after you finish school, you are competing with all of the people that have finished school with their college degrees. AND THERE ARE A LOT OF THEM!! I also learned there is no difference between two degrees and 11 degrees. NONE!! A degree is still a degree. You may ask how? A bachelor’s degree tells an employer that you are trainable and that you are the type of employee that will finish what he starts. That’s it, point blank. That’s all any college degree will say: “I can finish what I start”.
That shit was a serious let down. I thought I was special, I thought I was smart. A college man! That sucked ass and hurt. Every job I went out for was a starting salary between $22,000 and $32,000 for 60-hour weeks. FUCK THAT NOISE!! That would mean no more Brazilian ju-jitsu, no more competing in tournaments and lots of responsibility.
So I did the most logical thing I could do at that time. Law School! Yea, I’m going to be a lawyer! That’s kinda cool and gangster. I can go to school for three more years, get student loans, compete in jiu-jitsu, train pro cage fighters and put off getting into the real world. It sounded good on paper. Turns out that was THE HARDEST thing I HAVE EVER DONE!!!
That shit is no fucking joke!! There is no way I can explain it to you where you can understand it completely. This is what it would best be described as: imagine five classes a semester with about 120 to 150 pages of case law reading, per class, per week. With an additional 100 pages of “horn book” reading per book per class. And a whole dictionary dedicated to legal words and definitions that will never be found in a Webster’s dictionary. And that reading is done first, so it can help you understand the course book material you need to read for the class. Simple right? FUCK NO!! You need to be responsible for all that material that the teacher assigns; issue, rule, analysis and conclusion (IRAC) for every case you read. If you get called on in class and you are not prepared to answer because you didn’t read the material, you will be asked to leave the class and will be marked down as absent for the day. They don’t fuck around, it’s hard, very hard! That’s all law school is, case reading, memorizing and “legal reasoning” on paper. Knowing the law is not important. Legal reasoning that is what’s important. Law school has an 85% dropout rate the first year and that number is coming from college graduates with bachelor degrees or higher who scored high on the LSAT (law school exam that measures your logic and analytical reasoning skills). OUCH!!
After law school it would seem that my life was good. WRONG!! Without getting too much into it, I fucked up, big-time!! I got caught with a certain amount of “E” pills and thought that keeping my mouth shut was a choice that was conducive to me living longer.
After losing everything I owned, including my home and disappointing everybody I knew life started getting worse than “BAD”. The next place for me after a year of trial was seven month of LA county Jail time. I got into 1-5 fistfights a day with guys from different races for different reasons. And nobody came to visit me. I was fine with that. That place really made me think. That place sucked big-time! Law School was still harder!! REALLY!!
Fast forward and I’m out of jail seven months later for a crime I could have gotten no time for if I cooperated (BUT I’M NO FUCKING RAT). It’s funny how possession turns into sales when you don’t give people up. The police had no physical evidence for sales and no witnesses of me selling, just my “alleged confession” about being Mr. Big. I learned a lot through that experience, cops lie, people that claim to be your friend almost completely disappear and don’t trust anybody who calls you friend and have done nothing to prove it or earn it!!
“HOW DOES A THREE YEAR STUDENT OF LAW NOT KNOW AND UNDERSTAND HIS FUCKING MERANDA RIGHTS?” I know my shit and thought that if I say nothing and don’t cooperate I would be fine. Not to worry, the cops filled in the blank where I said nothing. Keep in mind: if two people corroborate a story, the facts of that story becomes a material facts, regardless of fact or fiction of the story. Every attorney and cop know that even the best attorney if busted and questioned by cops knows to invoke their right to remain silent and ask for an attorney. Even the famous Johnny Cochran would ask for counsel. Big lesson learned. Cops lie worse than criminals and its all legal.
Now I’m out of county and free to re-start my life. Yea! I learned my lesson and I am ready to take responsibility. Now, I’m starting my life with less than zero and all my education and internships can’t help me get work. Every job I apply for had background checks. I couldn’t even get a job bagging groceries. Starbucks wouldn’t hire a convicted narcotics offender. Can you really blame them? They don’t care that I was reformed or that I’m a man of my word, don’t lie, steal or cheat. I can never be an attorney or hold a government job since I won’t pass the moral turpitude background check. Even most fast-food restaurants wont hire me.
Almost all of my friends turned their backs on me. That hurt me pretty bad. Only one friend stood beside me through that whole ordeal. Her and I dated for 2+ years. She had very little money and I had none. She would buy me food from the 99-cent value menu with what little she had. She worked very hard to pay all the bills for her terminally ill mother. She gave me shelter when nobody gave a shit. She let would me stay with her in her tiny apartment even though she was very embarrassed by it. It was infested with so many roaches, that you never wanted to kill them because you would have to clean the dead roach mess. I was cool with the roaches, we had a peace accord. It was still better than jail but not as tough as law school.
There was no hot water and it was very cold in the winter. I’m talking balls in the stomach cold!! This apartment was not even an apartment but an office with a hot plate and a shower. It was the closest to homeless you can get without being in a shelter. It sucked ass!! But I was so very grateful and it was the only thing this girl could afford and still pay her dying moms bills. This woman would take the bus 1+ hours one-way to work every day. She was always 15 minutes early everyday she worked. To have nothing and share what little she had with me made me really rethink who I am and what I can really do. I respect her more than anyone person I have ever known. And she was attractive to top it all off! She never stripped, did porn or took money from anybody without paying it back. A class act in every sense of the word. MUCH RESPECT! And I will never forget what you did for me…
This person and I have been broken up for years but we remain very close friends. Now that I have everything there is nothing I won’t give her and nothing I wont do for her to repay her for her kindness. She knows it and she would never take advantage of it. Her mom has died since and I promised her mom that I would always take care of her daughter no matter what and I always keep my promises.
This was definitely a hard time for me. These are the kinds of times that will make or break a man. I couldn’t get work and at the same time I was way over qualified for every job I applied for. When a job was open and they liked me I wasn't able to pass the background check.
Instead of crying about what I didn’t have, I focused on what I did. I had 10 years of college and postgraduate education. I turned my laser hobby into a business. I used everything I learned in school to create and form my own job, my own business and my own company. LightSpeedLasers is that company. Everything I learned in school and in my internships gave me the knowledge and confidence to build up my company. I couldn’t have done it without the education or the hardships.
After building the laser company, making it self-sufficient and hiring employees to run it, I got bored not having to working day in and day out. So I got into the adult business. College helped me there too. It gave me the ability to learn, adapt and overcome any and all life obstacles that porn would bring. My buddy brought me aboard aluckystranger.com to shoot stills. I really sucked ass back then. My experience with aluckystranger.com bettered my photography and I was lucky that it was all amateur style shooting. Then I tried my hand at editing. I got pretty good at editing, but hated editing my buddy John’s shaky, bad angled camera work. I got so frustrated with it that I just grabbed the video camera and started shooting it myself. The hour I spent holding the camera, saved me 3+ on editing.
I am a firm believer that you should strive to be the very best at whatever you do. I read everything I can get my hands on, I ask questions to people that are more knowledgeable than I and I go that extra mile that my competition won’t go.
I stared porn in 2002 and I get better every day!! I became really good at sex stills and box cover pictures. As a result of being on set, I learned direction and shot compositions and angles. I sharpened all my directing skills by learning editing. Then sharpened all my photography, directing, lighting and production skills with assisting other top directors such as CRAVEN MOOREHEAD.
I truly believe we are a sum of our times and experiences. The hardest pressures deep in the earth, when exerted on a normal piece of coal can turn it into a diamond. Hard times make the man and this is why I am the way I am.
I’m still not a racist and I hate everybody equally!!
That’s me in a nutshell,
“Just” Dave
