Timon, considering that gsibillingservices.com has a whois record that is LAUGHABLE... I somehow doubt they are actually billing people, I would more than likely put them in the "collect CC info" business.
There were a number of KP sites doing this in the past, because who is going to complain to their CC company that they are not going to pay for charges generates when a KP website stole thier info?
May actually be the ultimate revenge on pedophiles.

Okay, here is the question for the day:
I got this spam, from, well, who else, right? I don't like spam, I hate people that mail to scraped addresses, but that really isn't the issue this time. Nope, I want everyone to read this spam and let me know what you think of the site names and text involved... just curious what everyone thinks:

That bottle of Aunt Jemima better stop talking to me
She’s making too much goddamned sense
And I don’t have the heart to rip her head off
And pour syrup on my pancakes
Fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck
You’re not my problem — I’m my problem

I would like to know who the billing company is and see them closed for making money on KP. That was one of the worst sites that I have seen in a long time.

Timon,
Iron Maiden introduced me to Churchill's "We will never surrender" speech ... I think it is the best speech of the twentieth century. One must sunk back into the shallow depths of time and remember where the world was at that time .. go download and listen to the speech to really get it. The world was in danger, the British were in danger, and Churchill made it very clear .. "We will never surrender".
"... that is what we are going to try to do. That is the resolve of His Majesty's Government–every man of them. That is the will of Parliament and the nation. The British Empire and the French Republic, linked together in their cause and in their need, will defend to the death their native soil, aiding each other like good comrades to the utmost of their strength. Even though large tracts of Europe and many old and famous States have fallen or may fall into the grip of the Gestapo and all the odious apparatus of the Nazi rule, we shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end, we shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and the oceans, we shall fight with growing confidence and growing strength in the air, we shall defend our Island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender, and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this Island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British fleet, would carry on the struggle, until, in God's good time, the New World, with all its power and might, steps forth to the rescue and the liberation of the old."

The frog sounds...I had about 5 IE windows open and it took me a minute to figure out which one the sounds were coming from ;) It's a cute gimmick - give me a couple of days to see if it's going to drive me crazy.....

Sure isn't!
Just no substitutue for "The school of what's happenin' now, momma."
I agree that it is hard to beat life experiences. Life has taught me more than college, but then again college was only 4 years long and life much longer.
I give a lot of credit to Yale, though. What I learned there became a very deep part of who I am. I was a physics major and not an economics, business or related major so it would be unfair for me to say what I would have taken with me but I do think it would have been substantial. What I gained from being a physics major, a very deep understanding of the REAL scientific method, the way it is really used in practice has actually been useful in business. And of course, all the statistical concepts from such were invaluable also. And many, many, more things than that.
I think an MBA from MIT would be a fine thing to have. Their Sloan School of Management is very heavy on CEO's of companies. A staff with much real -world experience.
And of course, we live in a very tech-laden field. A degree in programming wouldn't be such a bad thing for many of us.
There are the pure entrepeneurs and then there are the tech/entrepeneurs of which I would say the latter were more helped by school than the others.

Jesse, Colin,
How come nobody credits Yale or other colleges?

2) Put a column down the left or right side of the page with ads. That is what all the news sites do and is what I did at my Link List. It is also what the print world does.
3) Other Oprano boards should not open in new windows. Webmasters come here for the content, (information and amusement), and all the boards should be thought of as pages in that, think of Oprano as a magazine and the other boards as pages in that magazine.

The greatest lessons I have learned have been brought by my own failures. With that said, I
have Webfather and Colin to thank immensely. One can only hope for failures in their life. It makes
one stronger, and hopefully, wiser. The only fault is when someone doens't learn from their
failures and apply these lessons to their next endeavors.
Thanks Guys.

One of the great lessons you taught me in life was to take money for myself. Don't reinvest 100%.
*********************************
Colin.....that post may have just saved me HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS of dollars.
Let me explain.
I used to make the same mistake....This time I didn't want to own every domain and live in a trailer. So I decided that half the domains and a castle or 2 would be better.
:-))
And Colin, Thanks for that TIMELY post!! You just helped me make a very big decision. Yesterday I offered $385,000 for a domain. My largest single offer ever. It was rejected. I was just sitting here thinking of a counter offer to send this morning.
That post stopped me in my tracks.
Thanks for helping!!

Webfather,
One of the great lessons you taught me in life was to take money for myself. Don't reinvest 100%.
At the time you told me that, I was running a company that was making millions of dollars per year and no taking a cent. I was reinvesting 100%.
You mean it isn't everyone's approach? How else could you possibly do it and not get lost in a desert with no direction?

How do we get more attention for our great sponsors?
----
NO CROAKS! NO SOUND OF ANY KIND!
randomly place a banner ever 10 messages or so ... make a table cell on the left or right which goes from top to bottom and has ads layed up DOWN the page next to the messages instead of up the top of the page.
