Tell us a secret you know because of your work that others might not know V3

Thanks. I did a bit of reading last night but will do more reading. Can you comment on the 38% effectiveness from early studies where they found that it only worked in a minority of patients while in others it had little effect and in others none.

Not really, lol.

I'm not part of the team that is working on the cocaine vaccine. We're just collaborating with some groups studying the biochemistry of addiction.

I was surprised by how few, even in our own field, knew about the vaccine research so I decided to share here. Best for people to know what is going on in the science world before they're surprised by "new advancements" (that were decades in the making) and letting special interest groups use spin doctors to cloud the issues.

For those of you not interested in dense research papers, halfway down the page they talk about the vaccine:

No one really has to worry about anything now. That's why I said 5-10 years from now. But as more information is gleaned, the better and more focused vaccines can be developed.

I spent 8 years working for PricewaterhouseCoopers and the only class I ever failed in college was intro to financial accounting.

PWC does more than financial statement auditing. What did you do for them?

Healthcare advisory. But anytime I mentioned where I worked, most ppl would ask me if I could do their taxes for them.

More than Amateur porn. Ive seen 3 porno's being shot in my time, delivered room service to all 3 "shoots". Have seen a lot of shake your head moments and memories to write a book about. Sometimes I miss it

You don't need to write a book, a post will do. How about sharing some of those stories with us?
What were your favorite 'shake your head' moments from that job?

Brazzers run mofos, twistys, wicked, digital playground, reality kings, pornhub, youporn, playboy, moviebox... the list goes on.

Actually, Manwin runs Brazzers, and etc.

You know when you're putting that swingset together and you're missing one of the 16 bolts and/or rods that holds the whole thing up? And you're like, what the fuck is wrong with the person who could not properly count out 16 of these fucking things so that I could get my shit together?

That's my bad. In my defense a few of my co-workers can't see particularly well, so it's actually more likely to be their bad. But most days I just don't care.

I've honestly never had a missing part (that mattered), but why don't the holes ever line up? Whoever is drilling the holes for the majority of stuff I've built over the years has been drunk.

It is very easy to smuggle stuff through security at ports, airports etc.
Most of the staff has like 2 weeks of education and little to no motivation.

Im not sure I should post how. But it is really mind-numblingly easy.
It is harder at airports, but still very possible.

Seeing Cindy Crawford in 2002 topless. I posted that story in a different thread.

During a wedding ceremony out front under the gazebo 200 guests during dead silence turn around and 7 floors up is some guy banging his chic from behind and she is moaning like no other. Security had to tell them to bring it inside.

I was threatened by a Miami Detective at work, threatening me with going to jail and some guy fucking me if I didn't tell him the truth about missing jewelry. Turns out it was a couple con artists trying to fuck me over.

During a wedding reception the banquet servers accidentally mistook beaten eggs for a mango dressing. 150 people putting raw eggs on their salad.

A kid with mental disorder was jerking off in the hot tub...during the daylight..with 50 or so guests in the pool area and 2 hot girls sitting in the hot tub across from him. Guess he just didnt care

I once carried 20, #10 blade disposable scalpels in my backpack and wasn't stopped coming or going. I had them in there for a medical demo I was doing and forgot. All the way from Missouri to Atlantic City and back, noticed when I got home they were buried under my laptop.

for reference -

Yes. I once assisted at a x-ray scanner, and a lot of knives came through. It is sometimes really hard to see what is on the x-ray screen, especially if you carry a lot of wires etc.
If you put glass over the content in your bag, the x-ray screen will go completely black. They will most likely check it manually then, but if you just put glass over the content you don't want to be seen, or just put an ipod on top of it. It will go unoticed.

You should know Manwin owns Brazzers in that case lol, not equals.

I wouldn't go off Wikipedia, the information is a little incorrect about the company.

I've met some like Lisa Ann and Keiran Lee.

i'm from montreal too, only reason i'm aware of Manwin, didnt read a wiki article.

I work at the Bell Center and when Manwin split a loge with playboy i looked them up because i didn't know who they were.

I gotta say, after each event Manwin has the biggest orders of alcohol compared to other loges. They are the only ones who order Glenlivets and Remy Martin's.

I met Lisa Ann and Phoenix Marie at a shooting 2 years ago in MTL.
