Dave the Tommy play was canceled for economic reasons. The world will have to wait.

David, sorry to hear about the play. It's tough trying to be a rock and roll star!

Stijn!!

Dave, I remember a few grey hairs on you as well.

It was an exhausting anniversary. One time for every year in just 24 hours gets tough after 19 years. I will have to take more vitamin E to survive next year.

So...I have this domain name, zipbang.com. I've had it for 20 years. Yes, I registered it back in 1991. Anyway, I got it so my email address would not keep changing every time I changed ISPs. Over the years I've picked up a little over 100 users paying me $70/year for an @zipbang.com email account. I have a web server on it also, but mainly use that to ftp and post pics from.

That being the background, someone has offered me $1000 for zipbang.com and zipbang.net because I don't really have a web site for the domain and it looks like I am not using it. I explained I have email users totaling $7000 a year in income and would probably lose most of those accounts if I sold the domain and tried to get them to move to another one. Said I might consider selling the zipbang.com domain for 3 years of lost income or $21,000.

Think I am crazy cheap, crazy expensive, or about right?

I've got a race going on between going gray and going bald. Bald is winning, but gray has been gaining over the past 3-4 years.

Morning guys,

Grey hairs pop up here and there but I don't mind. Now I start to look hot AND distinguished...
My dad had a lot less hair when he was my age so I'm lucky. (just wondering how long my luck will last... )

Today I'm going to get my Ruf wheels... Do you guys think three sets of wheels is enough for one car?? (Yes, Rick, I know, it's still a non runner, for the moment )

Which ones, I have two sets of Fuchs. Full bling or black center, polished lips...

Actually thinking of selling the full blings (7 and 8). I was gonna give Stijn dibs but I keep stumbling on ads of him selling his 911 stuff..... Guess his build is put on hold. Or maybe he's in the market for a well set up 944....

i think that a reasonable offer would be more like 10 years income. seriously. that said, if you were to market your services (even a little tiny bit, perhaps offering a discount for referrals), it seems that your income would drastically improve. from what you are saying, you have accidentally gotten 1000 users to cough up $70/year. that is pretty awesome. perhaps you could coach me on how to do this. i'd pay you $70/year for the coaching.

fine. 100 users. that is $7000 that he wouldn't otherwise have. i'd love to have 100 users paying me $70 each to maintain a web page.
